Looking forward to this grow BID...exciting

I am looking for an LED to cover my veg tent very soon and hopefully in the not too distant future my flower tent (to replace a 600 hps) ...I will be following this closely

I have been telling my girlfriend for the past couple years someone needs to invent a light that simulates the sun...the dawn dusk feature is exactly what I was thinking of...love the technology

good to see you jay, i have already proved to myself at least i can do just as good if not better in the weight dept with led vs hps, quality was proven to me 2 journals ago now i hope to see advances in re creation of natural light cycles leading to improved overall health potency,yield and energy savings, with all eyes on this journal im hoping for a great run ,the lights look and sound like they can deliver ,now to get to the hands on, im hoping to do both my gut feelings on led and my gracious sponsor a good service with this journal
i want all to know this wont be a wham bam thank you mam test i mean to test several ideas and theories i have with several runs and stages, i want to see how these lights function in optimum settings,and what happens to stressed or sick plants when treated with different doses of spectrum, i theorize that a sick plant may be helped and fixed by delivering a specific light spectrum faster than just plant medicines i have seen hps hammer a sick plant to death,,i have seen t5 revive a sick plant, i believe that light is more than just the engine, i think it can expedite healthy plants thru stressed times,,i have more theories about breeding,autoflowers,accelerated growth, i mean to test down the line a bit, this will perhaps be one of my longest journals, look how deep we are and the grow is essentially not even started merely the pieces set almost ready to fire the starting pistil (pun intended)
:high-five::thanks::thumb::Namaste:

Excellent reply BID...I admire your high-caliber of growing...Looking forward to the different tests (great idea)

I'm sold on LED, I have had a small LED for a couple years that I use for propagation and supplemental lighting and I love how the plants respond to it...I plan to go full LED in both my veg and flower tents...really looking forward to seeing how these lights work for you
 
I don't think that my ladies would have survived the last 4-5 weeks under any other lighting system than CFL. LEDs or HIDs would have been too much in their sickly state. While growing with CFLs is slower than anything, except for incandescent, it sure does allow time to evaluate and correct any issues that may develop. It is the perfect lighting system for newbies, such as myself, who are still getting their grow process established while we get a few grows under our belts.
 
Stopping in to day hello.

I was thinking about all the different ideas you just mentioned BID. I think I emailed you the spectrum lay uot which shows which PAR spectrums are assigned to which of the three channels.

So If you all want to do some research here is a suggestion:
Which Light wavelength bands does the plant actually use?
then find out:
Which wavelengths are used during the different growth development periods?
final thing to find out:
What is the maximum amount of each particular wavelength in Umol m2-s par reading does the cannabis plant use, consume, absorb convert to food energy before it becomes too much intensity for the plant to handle? And find this out for each plant growth cycle.

If you can find such info out ...then the perfect LED light can be created using the perfect wavelength Spectrum and the right amount of PAR intensity.
When every element of these things is found out for the cannabis then the LED can literally match both the perfect spectrum and the exact amount of power PAR Umole intensity need during each stage of growth for each particular spectrum that is used through out the growth phases....I am stoned...so read between the lines....lol

Plus with this knowledge you would know how to manipulate the lights during anykind of stress or disease attack..knowing how each of the light spectrum being used does a certain thing for the plant...imagine all the possibilities. Even were talking....creating programs labeld with things like..High humidity stress, root disease, nute burn, you name it. When those things happen it changes the plant and the plant is kind of side tracked need to process different things to get itself back fully recovered from that stess. How sick would it be to have a digital program that had every kind of plant scenarios and each scenario has 3 tailored versions encase these issues happen to the plant in any cycle. Shit like this can be imagined and become a reality...

But we must first find out sciences behind the light spectrum and how it affects each plant and how much of the light spectrum does the plant use up in each stage before it becomes and overdose of that particular spectrum(Light Burn from LED being too intense adn too close to plants- different then heat burn)

We need to know why this light burn happens through having to much intensity PAR reading for every used wavelength.

This info would be revolutionary if 100% known

thank you thats mighty kind, all i can say is i try,i research, i apply, and most of the time i am lucky and things work out, add an attitude of gratitude thanks for all i have to numerous to list, , i think led is the natural progression for indoor gardening and as the tech is refined it will evolve to be what the vast majority will use,the price will eventually be competitive with even economy lights of today with far better performance and better cost to grow, much lower cooling costs, and a better product whatever you might grow, at least thats my vision of the not to distant future:thumb:

cfl did right by me thats no doubt,:high-five: but im thinking with this light system being able to control light intensity and spectrum i think you can achieve the same level of comfort they feel with cfl im sure the spectrum and softness can be matched ,im seeing the control system this light has the potential to be an all in one system perfect for many growers, or running multiple setups, all to be figured out in the near future, i have one huge concern with cfl and thats the mercury in them its very dangerous when a bulb breaks, and thats a concern i worry about even just around the house if one breaks i evacuate the house and don a respirator to clean up and a air purifier is fired up immediately .
 
yea your not suppose to dispose of cfl's in the trash
so cfl good energy saver bad for the environment it be a great thing if it wasn't for the mercury I n there
Happy Munchday BID :thumb:
 
no ups so far........

BID, I took a sick day yesterday & those buttholes showed up after 6:00pm. I would have been home already. But you know how it goes, I still greeted him with pearly whites happy as a pig in do-do.
 
Are we there yet?
 
well its looking like a tomorrow thing ups almost always has been and gone by noon my time its almost 2, so highly unlikely they will be by today,sorry no pics today :(
 
no worries :high-five:
 
Happy Tokerday BID on pins and needles still :thumb:
 
im about 20 minutes off but Happy Weednsday BID :thumb:
