    LED Without LEDs -My First T5 Grow

    There are quite a few people recently claiming faster growth using grow bulbs in veg vs actinics. I was going to point out something but 48 kinda did it for me... (in my experience) Actinic bulbs or a very blue dominant spectrum (Actinic/6500k) will promote very tight node spacing and will grow...

    LED Without LEDs -My First T5 Grow

    Lol yeah dude, seriously I guess I am dumb then cuz I don't think its all about getting massive amounts of lumens onto the plants, if I subscribed to that theory I would have stuck to HID only... I dont think of the "PAR technique" as using red/blue only, I take it to mean an optimized spectrum...

    LED Without LEDs -My First T5 Grow

    Some of us are more interested in learning the principles and perfecting techniques through first hand experience, than being told how to do anything Don't get upset cuz people aren't agreeing with your "PAR light isn't worth it" and "cheap grow/bloom bulbs are better" arguments, when most of...

    LED Without LEDs -My First T5 Grow

    My main issue from the very start was the heat (Its been above 90 all week, and my grow is upstairs/south facing...) I started with a 400wHPS in a cool tube and I was able to get the tube right down onto the tops and got a good yield, but in the dead of winter the ambient temps in the room were...

    LED Without LEDs -My First T5 Grow

    They're gonna look just like FloraSuns, only they're Chinese made... take it for what it is. I have several WavePoint bulbs and havent had a problem with any, and I do plan to get an UltraGrowth or two just to compare, but look at the SPD for each, they're practically the same except WavePoint...

    LED Without LEDs -My First T5 Grow

    Although I dont know about ditching the FloraSuns LV... nothing on the market that I know of has as much 630-660 and is cheap as dirt but good quality, Ill take em all day over ANY comercial bulb. And the AquaticLife Marine Purple 460/620's... junk. Next to a Pure Actinic, they only appear...

    LED Without LEDs -My First T5 Grow

    Im with LV, you dont need to spend $20 per bulb!!! The only one I will (veeeery reluctantly due to quality issues) is the RedSun and when available the 660. Otherwise, the WavePoint BlueWave and AquaticLife 420/460 both completely cover the full Blue spectrum, and for the Red/flowering spectrum...

    LED Without LEDs -My First T5 Grow

    I have 2 of the plant grows, compare their SPD to the FloraSun and they're almost equal... However the PlantGrows I have both have tiny dots or etches on the inside of the glass where it looks like the phosphor coating didnt adhere... looks like tiny dots of UVc leakage... very very bad. They...

    Guaranteed not to be the fiji purp spd. KZ won't publish their data because they source their tubes from another manufacturer (I believe Hagen) and they don't have the rights to publish them, just like those with a UVL 660 sample can't publish any graph they may have, same restrictions.

    PAR T5/HPS DWC...FruityChronicJuice*BlueberryGum*BlueCheese* Autohobbit

    Sry for the delayed response... I just chopped mine at right around the same time, mine looked more mature tho, the buds had plumped up and had stopped putting out new flowers. Yours looks good, looks pretty vigorous still

    Altar, if those 8 bulb units for $150 on ebay were from the seller Growzebo (i didnt check the link, sry) those are what I have, every fixture I have except for my current Veg 6 bulb (hydrofarm) and 2 side panels (white, 4bulb hydrofarms), all the others are from Growzebo and Ive had no...

    Club T5

    side lighting and supplementing with Red during flowering is a wonderful idea, but as Mursh already said, Incandescent bulbs are one of the worst things you could do, almost like poisoning them as far as how they will negatively affect the development. Same with the Red colored CFL's...

    exactly, I believe its Magnesium Arsonate that is needed for the deep reds, and just like almost all other rare earth metals, it is mined and sourced almost exclusively in china, and they've been artificially inflating their price lately because they are also needed in manufacturing electrical...
