BID's Multi Tool All Purpose Universal Consolidated Multiple Grow Journal #10

Quite honestly, I don't think going from 2L to 25L pots is too drastic. I've found most plants tend to have very slow vertical growth under the LED's anyway (regardless of mfg) though the plants are still perfectly healthy. Usually a popular trait as more people are trying cabinet/closet/box growing, but less of an issue as more people are getting comfortable with LST, supercropping, etc,. Give them enough time to veg in the bigger pots and, if healthy going in, those tandem Budmasters will flat-out flower a half-dozen plants. If your other lights ran complete grows, the results you'll see from these will make you a very happy person.
 
I would say this is my first proper grow that I have going now it should have happened last year but due to personal circumstances I had to move all my plants. I did have them vegging under a t5 and they did look nice and squat tight node spacing. Once I get my veg area sorted I plan on using t5 or LEP for veg. I have a mate who uses the 300 Gavita LEP for his mothers and he swears by them, not exactly cheap though. I ended up taking cuts from them to start my current grow. I'm sure I will get a journal going eventually I have been recording everything I have done so far, and I would agree that my budmasters are not producing the fastest veg growth rate. Things have started to pick up now as they are getting bigger they seem to like the LED more and more each day.
 
woooohoooo! PARMAGEDDON IS HERE!!!!!!!!!!! recently the budmaster news of the new improved budmaster II od(osram leds) & god (gold)lights broke on the site one will be a 40% increase in par over existing models the other the gold will be a 200-300% increase in par
and a very cool thing is existing customers with a current gen light can just upgrade their clusters & drivers to the new od or god and still use the old clusters as side lighting or whatever just add a cord and like in my case i will have 9 bud master clusters to use in conjunction or elsewhere so cool i dont think any other led co. is doing this oh and the osram leds are 100k hour rated !! heres the link so you can reAD about it
PARMAGEDDON is here there's nothing to fear - budmasterled.co.uk
 
What freaking rock have I been under? 6 pages of a BID journal before I found it - someone smack me, all caught up now - won't happen again :)
Flock the greedy politicians bro, I'm working with friends in need of medicine too and if they come knocking to take it away it'll be a white heat moment - made it ma, top of the world!
 
so upon checking yesterday i discovered some fresh info and specs for what my 675 will be after i get and install the upgraded osram clusters heres what was posted up yesterday
With our new Osram Delux Gold led grow lights we have truly eclipsed every other light in the cosmos, with superior quality German engineering these Osram diodes really are the best that money can buy with many additional features that come togehter to bring a truly remarkable end product.
Osram leds are made in Germany with the highest possible quality standards and controls and are all UL / CUL certified and come with many additional features including :

  1. Precision optics for better light dispersal.
  2. 200 - 300% more PAR output than traditional 3w leds.
  3. 100,000 hrs lifespan double the usual standard of 50,000 hrs.
  4. Integrated solderpads for exact fitting.
  5. Exact wavelengths guaranteed and horticultural bandwidths.
  6. Minimum drop of output over time.
  7. New lens mould specifically designed for the Osram series.
  8. 1.6mm thick PCB made in the UK.
  9. Standard Budmaster aluminium finned copper core heat sinks.
Our Budmaster II 675 series are all designed to be used in a 1.2sqm tent and all these models should be kept as high in the tent as possible with just a couple of inches breathing space above the light. There is no need to move these models any closer to your plants at any stage of their growth as they are so powerful.
Budmaster II 675 G.O.D has almost triple the PAR output of a brand new 600w digital ballast and bulb HPS making it a truly awesome lighting experience bringing German engineering to your grow room, giving an incredible 1168 µmoles/m2/s at 1m distance compared to hps at 390µmoles/m2/s at 1m.

Red & blue, the reds are perfectly balanced to avoid bleaching
The three whites between them encompass the complete visible spectrum
Minimum Output Drop Over Time
For example most led’s are made for industrial, commercial or domestic applications and they measure their drop in output over time based on a short general usage time.
So for example a Cree diode designed to be used in flood lighting or car headlights will drop output considerably when used for horticulture as these type of diodes are only expected to be on for 2-3 hours maximum at a time not for 12 – 20 hours at a time.
With the Osram led’s that we are using they are designed to be on for long periods of time and have a lifespan of double a normal led at a staggering 100,000 hours with very minimal drop in output over time.
Exact Horticultural Wavelengths
With Osram leds every diode can be guaranteed to hit the exact wavelength and bandwidth that are needed for optimal photosynthesis as they are specifically designed for horticulture.
Many led grow lights have many different bands and this is simply not needed as even cheaper leds have a considerable bandwidth and can partially cover some of bandwidth that is required for most horticultural purposes.
Osram though have exhaustively researched and tested the exact peak wavelengths and bands needed for optimal photosynthesis and are being used globally in super massive hydroponic fixtures globally.
Exacting Quality Control
For example most led’s are made for industrial, commercial or domestic applications and they measure their drop in output over time based on a short general usage time.
So for example a Cree diode designed to be used in flood lighting or car headlights will drop output considerably when used for horticulture as these type of diodes are only expected to be on for 2-3 hours maximum at a time not for 12 – 20 hours at a time.
With the Osram led’s that we are using they are designed to be on for long periods of time and have a lifespan of double a normal led at a staggering 100,000 hours with very minimal drop in output over time.
Superior German Engineering
Germany has for decades produced goods of such high quality that they have become renowned worldwide as the masters of engineering bringing many superiors quality products such as Osram leds, Mercedes Benz, BMW etc.
The Osram factory in Germany quality control is paramount and as a result every single Osram diode basically has a birth certificate and each one can be traced back to its exact point of origin and its details are available at the click of a button for inspection.
This of course means that we can have 100% confidence in the quality of their leds as they are second to none.
Made in the UK
In order to get the highest possible quality control and output we decided to go back in time and get our new Osram Delux Gold boards made in the UK.
And to do this fine job of work we chose Marl International based in Cumbria. We visited many factories but Marl are without a doubt the best in the business. Established in 1970 Marl have been at the forefront of LED technology for decades and have many high profile customers including the UK and USA military.
Marl's exacting standards and quality control assure a practically perfect end product that will guarantee the end user the highest quality, output and longevity.
Solderpads
Well trust the Germans to come up with an elegant and seamless solutions to a problem, most led’s are mounted with a small heat sink beneath them and negative and positive legs protruding from either side to allow soldering to a PCB.
This method has its problems as the led’s are adhered to the PCB with a tiny amount of thermal grease to help conductivity, however if the led’s are not placed down exactly then there can be thermal resistance spikes which can cause the led’s to blow.
Osram have pioneered the use of Solderpads allowing the led’s to be fixed to the PCB by way of tiny little positive and negative pads beneath the led which then fit exactly into the PCB, no mess, no fuss and no thermal spikes ever.



needless to say im as excited as a nun bent on leaving the order having drinks at a male strip club!!

Damn bro those are some intense stats!
You ever think of a getting a big ass tent and throw all them lights you got, into it?
I've always been a fan of this brand since your first grow with them.
I've always pictured a lil tent with clusters everywhere.....I need to stack up the cheddar!
CHEERS BRO
 
These lights are going to be a game changer that's for sure. If I wasn't so ugly I'd sell my body to buy some
i felt the 675 was a game changer already but this is gonna be flat out astounding i think....

i can say im pretty much done with my search for the perfect led , paul has created the recipe that may very well define what a led should do! imo, i just wish i was swapping out clusters and drives today & taking pics of the process for you guys, see he designed them like this for the very purpose of being able to just upgrade your chassis with the latest modules like upgrading your pc with new mb/cpu/mem etc
brilliant plan i think and not geared to pure greed, i know the prices jumped but he is not marking them up like others do by 1000% and will drop them as they become cheaper to build, im hoping to be able to offer discounts on behalf of the mag and brand loyalty type stuff all ideas at this point i have many things to discuss with the man after all the dust settles from this roll out, im gonna work hard to help make budmaster a great choice for US customers , i sincerely believe they are the best led lights out there and a company that believes in the cause and the growers, i rarely make these strong of attestment's but thats where i'm at right now, not that there are not other grear companys and lights out there, there certainly are and i have loved using their products, but this is the cream of the crop imo. \m/ oo \m/
 
time for some pics these were taken the day after the last pics i posted 2 of them (bd & g13) grew 6 inches in 24 hours
enjoy i sure am blown away at the budmaster/autopot/d&s grology combo

my friend with cancer came by or a visit and refill yesterday i told her about the drama the thought of me stopping had her in tears and that my friends was all i needed to cement my resolve, she said one of the 2 reasons shes getting better and fighting is me and her desire to be a mom to her kids,she also wants to document and show the world terminal cancer can be cured with cannabis she has the utmost faith in it and me, how can i ever give up? you know she has already exceeded what they predicted when i met her over a year ago she had a few months lol i told her i dont see an expiration date stamped on you, i got her watching "the secret" and on my meds she looks like a different person now,she has gained weight, has a full head of hair now and you would not guess she was sick! shes so excited about the cannatonic its funny she has read about the power of cbd and is just convinced its her final cure faith is a powerful thing ! funny how in times of worry life will provide these motivators and signs you cant help but go "ok i get it i know what im supposed to do! message received" :rocker:

Fight the good fight BID, What type of meds does your friend take? Smoke, tinctures, concentrates?

I vote for renewal of your card and plead ignorance.
