1xwatt 90 diodes, light reader will only pick up like 60 watt at 18 inches vertically down. its the GP90, a 250 buck ufo light.

I really don't know my LED's from a hole in the ground, but a very wise grower told me, LED's do give great results but anything less than 3 watt diodes will give crap results. He told me that if a manufacturer does not list the wattage of the diodes, to keep moving on to find one who does. There are manufacturers out there that use 5 and even 6 watt diodes nowadays. I'm willing to bet the farm that your lighting is the culprit.

So this is a big devil auto, she obviously got a little nute burn [yeller tips], but otherwise i don't understand why the buds are coming in so small unless its my new LED. I did the joint doctor lowryder and yielded 50g dry (under my 250hps), I want to blame this LED but I'm thinking it may be an operator error...any ideas? i doubt i will get even 30g dry off this...here the setup.

medium-Miracle grow(shut up, used it for years, its cheap and works good)
Light-90w UFOGP 20/4 cycle
temp/hum-variance +- 8 from 66deg to 74deg( the way i like it, cold at night warm in day)
300cf of co2 released over 2 weeks (not meant to be anything, rather my own comfort)
space is 30inx50inx60in WxLxH
AV nutes, and i aerate water for 15 min before watering
