    9 Purple Kush under 360 watts of LED. Dunit 2nd LED Grow

    Hey, guys! If you swap to an Air-Pot the average yield increase is above 30%, but the worldwide average yield increase with fruit trees being in these pot designs have an average of a 15% increase. That would have probably given you a minimum of 2.5 Oz. dry :) From what Ive read there are...

    Edit: I apologize. Some of what I typed below doesnt matter since I ignored the fact of how many plants you were growing, but you can read on to see what expectations come from this strain. I asked in 1 part how many plants you were growing but it was my mistake by skipping over. So, you are...

    Yeah, then a 500W would actually cover what a 500W HPS would cover, but on better PAR (compared to how many more lumens are absorbed by LED at a much lower Lumen level even tho it's still peaking a whopping 120,000 LUX which is actually too much. One is never to go past a LUX range of 90,000...

    "I aint hating and I didn't say you couldn't grow with them, but basically the only tangible advantage to LED's is lower heat...that's the simple fact" You just completely contradicted yourself. You aren't saying they wont grow, but the fact is they are only good for low heat? Oh, and yes, a...

    I Never mentioned or would dream that 145W draw would equal 1,000W. It is compared to a 240W HPS. Now, if I wanted to make a claim then there was a study with 660W of LED bringing in exactly 6% less yield than a 1,000W HPS. That was 2 500W (330 Watt Draw) panels.

    Hm... I just stumbled upon these videos on youtube today. What do you think about these 6+ watt LEDs that are being produced with like 28 LEDS and a 300+ watt draw with no fans. Just a heatsink? I've read different things needing the same wattage in a smaller bulb so they arent spaced so fat...

    I certainly dont claim to understand everything about lighting, but have had interest in a friends tech details on his stuff and compared LED's, and MH/HPS 1000W with a digilux and his little black star 240W is putting out 120,000 LUX in some distances, and easily holiding above the "50,000 LUX...

    What in your guys opinion's would be best if you were going to BLOOM 1 Plant as an LED test of Maximum ability? All would be Black Star. Would a BS 240 on the top, and 4 (on the sides... Overkill, I know) for max side lighting, or would a 500W BS REALLY outperform a 240W on the top if the plant...

    Highest THC Content?

    I've just started getting curious about it as well, and it's medicinal benefits. You should see the youtube video when the guy from Barney's had 2 little stalks of Tangerine Dream in his hand, and he was so happy about the strain and positive that it would win the cup he attended, and it did...

    barneys tangerine dream 2010 cannabis cup winner

    Edit: What strain that is obtainable by seed is the best Sativa strain that is least racy by your opinion, and what is your favorite strain? I'm sick and cant have caffeine or anything, and need a good sativa that will pep me up a bit without making my heart pound for so long. I have only had a...

    Pot Size

    THANK YOU! I watched the video and it seems far more advanced than a grow pot. I wish someone would do a side by side of a 5 Gal Plastic, 5 Gal Smart Pot & 5 Gal Air Pot. The air pot looks fascinating! If I may, I would like to ask one more question. Fox Farm's is pretty thick soil. Do you...

    Pot Size

    I thought the smart pots were designed to do the same thing. Is the pot you mentioned have better air flow, or depth? Im just trying to figure out mainly if depth or width are more important. Thank You for your response.

    Pot Size

    Does anyone know if the roots grow more down, or out? I have seen a 7 Gallon smart pot and it is wider than a regular 5 Gallon bucket, but shorter. With the supposed added air with the Smart Pot (7 Gallon), and supposed minimum that everyone has posted over a 30%+ better yield than the same...

    Highest THC Content?

    Exactly! See, most (if anyone at all) don't understand a few things. If you are looking for the affect you could look at the low THC content in White Rhino and watch on youtube the Greenhouse Seeds White Rhino video, and they will even get confused trying to explain that even tho it is low in...

    220w CFL 4'x4' floor plan, superior to 400w HPS

    Sorry to bring this thread back to life, but there is something people need to understand about this. http://www.specialty-lights.com/industrial-high-bay-light-faqs4.html As you guys can see it does not matter how many lumens your HPS or MH are putting out, because you are not absorbing the...

    LED Grow Lights: Separating Fact from Fiction

    Just call "Vic" at Gotham Hydro & let him clarify & send you articles of the only lights proven to do as advertised, and ask him what LED's are in the Unit's, and angles. Also, keep in mind he sells HID also. So, your going to get straight info. The 240 is the #1 seller worldwide. Their 500W is...

    LED Grow Lights: Separating Fact from Fiction

    In order to know or assume that it is brighter would be to own both and compare. Again, you are running the same LED's as Black Star, but double the price. Look and you will see a USA Flag Across the shape of America selling for these companies that are "Identical" to the Black Star's LED's, but...

    LED Grow Lights: Separating Fact from Fiction

    Hmhm... The point is if you buy the 180W you are simply paying double the money. The second point is there is no system running all 3W LED's, and only certain spectrums are being installed in these units at 3W. I guess I should just say look at response #5 from another person. He is exactly...

    LED Grow Lights: Separating Fact from Fiction

    The 180W Extreme is actually not several things that the Black Star is. Neither of them use ALL 3W LED's. Look at wattage draw, Kree, and Bridgelux LED's. The 240W Blackstar has these same LED's, but different angles, half the price and around a 15W less draw. You could run 2 X 240W BS LED's for...

    LED Grow Lights: Separating Fact from Fiction

    I Beg to differ. With a liquid cooled MH/HPS at 73 degrees (Freezing to the touch!) it put's out ambient heat that surpasses the water, and 2 layers of glass. If you are to hold your head under the hood at all for just a minute it will begin to burn your hair. The advertisements and statements...
