re: GLH 600W LED Grow
the led-haters will find some other bs argument now ... and i bet its ... i can get a bulb and ballast at target for 100 bucks ...why would i spend 2000 on a light?
The dumbest thing is that the LEDS are EFFICIENT first ..and happen to grow really well ... well at least the expensive leds seem to grow well.
Even my local shop owner was talking shit about LED until he saw my grow ..and in turn pulled up irish grow.

Pfff - only 15" colas. Whatever. If you were under HID you'd have 4' colas.
JK of course. Those plants are awesome by ANY standard! This grow is definitely a poster child and tutorial for LEDs or any other light.
Big Props!
+Reps if I can

re: GLH 600W LED Grow
and if i was out side i would have 20' colas..lol. next round should be a good one if i trade this 600w in and get a 1000w worth of 300's and keep the light closer to the tops. remember this light has been 18-20" the whole time. either way i am impressed by these leds right now, and it will only get better from here on.

re: GLH 600W LED Grow
bro ive been around leds for a while now, i as i just lost all hope and was gonna go back to HID mike hit me up and told me to give leds one more try, i was gonna turn it down. i was expecting him to send me a 126-180w or something like the others company's did, so i told him i would only do it for larger watts of leds of at least 600w. i was scared this whole time i was gonna waist my time again. well i am happy with this light, and i do have a whole new respect for leds now. i am the type of person that tends to not believe things until i see it with my own eyes. long story short is i guess not all leds are so bad but some are shit and a waist of money. allot of those led hatter have only seen those grows and have only heard the claims mad by company's that 90w match 400w hps BS. i beleive the higher watt leds are better, 3w and stuff like that.
lol i was wondering if someone would ask about that. i noticed the the timer putts out some light when its dark, so just to be safe i covered it up. i am sure its not enuff to mess with my plants but just to be safe.

Do you think you they are going to fetch you a QP+ each plant?
Your in Cali. right? How hot is your grow room in the summer with no lights running?

re: GLH 600W LED Grow
I think you're mistaking me for an LED-lover.
I'm just a dude who is seeing a whole lotta bud under a technology whose detractors often bray about how it can't flower.
I don't include you in that group, but that's what I was addressing.
What I think is that quite soon, HID will become a much less attractive option, and those who aren't flexible enough to change their game are only going to be screwing themselves.
My highs in the summer can range from 70-110.

re: GLH 600W LED Grow
sorry SS I used your quote to ask Irish those questions...just trying to see if he thinks he'll get anywhere near 5 oz a plant since he only has 4 under the panel. his pics although great are hard for me to grasp what he has there. sorry about the mix up.

re: GLH 600W LED Grow
I was curious this as well ledtester. Irish I was also curious if you are going to use your .75g/watt that you achieved in your grow using the 126w as your benchmark to compare this LED grow against. In that case with 729w being used you'd need to pull 546g. Do you feel confident looking at your canopy that you might pull that or smash those previous stats with HGL's led? I know it's still early, but we are pretty close in bloom 2 days apart, and I have a pretty good guess about my numbers that I'll pull and becoming more and more confident about gettin close to nailin' that 1 gpw.

re: GLH 600W LED Grow
His buds look good but I still want to see 600grams before I would even consider a panel and my point of asking about room temps is that I think you guys are in a situation where your rooms are too hot to grow in the summer before turning on any light and I'm sure you're going to have to cool them with these panels anyways!

re: GLH 600W LED Grow
my room gets around 95-98F** with no lights on in the summer heat.
IDK what my yield will be with this grow? i really dont like to guess on what its gonna be, i rather not expect anything until its dry and on the scale. i made guesses before in the past and got my feeling hurt. i have learnd not to expect. as far as using the yield from the 126w as a bench mark, i guess that sounds good? i think i will beat my old gpw. but not too sure on the 1gpw. thats allot of weight from 4 girls you know? i just dont want anything under a pound.lol. i should have done some smaller plants and did more of them instead of 4 girls. but i am not just looking at total yield bud bud quality mostly. how dense and the resin all that good stuff. as things look now my yield would be allot higher if i would have just stuck to all hindu skunks. but either way we shall see what the end brings me. see i have no choice but to use leds in the summer time! i casnt run my A/C all day its not worth it, leds make it possible for me to grow in this insane heat. but when winter come its the other way around. its cheaper for me to run my 1000w hps then to run a 1,500w heater to heat my leds.
