no problem. i think leds veg very well. no one can say they dont. but you have to look at cost. IMO leds will need to do some good buds in order to make them worth the money to buy. after all CFL will veg good.

leds are great for growing anything in vegetation cycle. So I don't know why the sellers are lieing ?? They could tell the truth and still sell the lights. Even some of the 90 watt ufos work real good for veg. I regenerated a plant under one 90 watter and it's amazing what 90 watts of electric will do. In 5 weeks, i must have 100 available cuttings. Ha !! I only need 4 !! But that 90 watter was sold to me with a promise that it would replace a 400 watt hid, And that was a lie, and that's what i disagree with !! And all this pertains, only if the 50,000 hr. promise turns out to be true !! But i hav'nt found anyone i know that says they're completely disapointed with leds. Just tell me the truth, and that's good enough for me !! I don't envy your position Mike, as we have been lied to and taken advantage of, and we're mad !! leds are a hard sell right now !! I just hope everyone takes into consideration, the electric saved, during the veg stage . I figure i'd need 200 watts of cfl to replace that 90 watt led ?? But that's just my opinion !! I hope you knock it out of the park Irishboy !! :nicethread::popcorn::cool:

re: GLH 600W LED Grow

I just installed my new S&P TD-150x exhaust fan and hooked it up to my air filter today. this fans is real quite and pretty powerful. with this new fan hooked up it lowered my room temp about 10F* so as of right now i have a intake with fresh air from outside and my room is filtering and exhaust the stale air pretty quick. i dont now how fast the air exchange rate is in my room, but if i stand by my filter i can fell a good draft of air going towards it.

Sounds sweet brotha! :smokin:

Airflow is a good thing. Like a warm summer breeze sailing through the leaves.

Should be easy to calculate.

Measure your room and calculate the cubic feet, then divide the fan's cfm rating by that.

You can get some idea of how much the filter decreases flow by holding your hand at the exhaust side, connecting and disconnecting the ducting, and seeing if the exhaust flow diminishes much with the filter connected.

Even if I don't feel much difference, I subtract 25% from the cfm rating before dividing it by the room's cubic footage.

That will give you the approximate air exchange rate per minute.

Hey whats up Slowpuffer,

I know exactly how you feel about being lied to, because of that reason is why I am doing what i am doing.. I started off by buying a certain panel for $2000+ and was extremely pissed of at the end results, seriously.. At that time I said screw it im making my own led panel and after trial and error here is where im at: light intensity+color spectrum+90 degree angled lenses = tight dense thick buds, exactly the results I am looking for and nothing less. I cant wait till this grow is over so people can really see the time and effort I have put into these panels.

I know led veg well but like I said before and irish has stated, so do cfl's.. lol.. I do believe led's do veg a little better than cfl's but thats a whole other conversation.. So back on point, its all about the end result that not one has been able to live up to and I believe I will.. we'll all see right?.. haha

Thanks again to everyone following this thread and irish for doing it..

Peace..
 
re: GLH 600W LED Grow

Just found this thread and wanted to include myself in the grow, I have been very interested in LED's for awhile now I even bought a 300W system but was never able to use it as I had to move in with a relative and she will not allow me to grow in her house : ( for some reason she thinks her house will be taken away if I am found growing and doesn't want to believe any different no matter what I say or do. Enough of my problems.

Will be keeping up with the grow and hopeing things go very well for you. :thumb:
