HPS grows some big buds but I think it's because of the IR radiation that heats the leaves. LED grown buds aren't usually that big but they're much more dense and certainly more resinous - at least in my experience. I'm not going to argue but the photos don't do LEDs the justice.Bro if u had hps your shit would be double in size and mayb more potent! I would like to do a test side by side comparison. See if ur right. But for now i can only speculate.
By the way they look a bit airy
@Greengenes707 did some testing on potency if I am not mistaken.
And in the end I agree that current commercial LED fixtures won't pay themselves. But DIY is an another story.

It's in previous posts. My Schwartz is bigger than yours! And it's a soil grow and I don't check runnoff or anything. Just growing for myself. And I really don't know what I am doing!

144 ft² @824 PPfD, yes, it's climate controlled. I tend to run higher RH than most, which means I run a bit higher EC. I'm just looking for a starting point.
They guy who told me to bump my EC for the 860W CDM lamps was on point, that's why I figured I'd ask you the same thing about these.
Thank you!

I'll be putting this to the test soon enough, because I think they are.

CXB3590 3500k x4 on the 200W driver... times 24. I've already competed testing with HPS, am most of the way done with 860W CDM, and will be building the test rig for 315W LEC soon.

For the pepes that are using Vero/CXB? There is no need to run hps to prove anything. Let the hps guys do the side by sides and spend the $ to prove us wrong.
