Hey fam

Launching a lil eBay biz making some led lights

If anyone wants to test one the usual deal do me a journal and I'll give U a light

Focused on micro grows 40w 75w and 120w


Right now I wanna launch the 40w model

Would do 1 plant or veg a 2x2

2 of them will flower a 2*2
3 will kill it in a 2*2

K

I'm serious here so please don't troll me but constrictive criticism welcome
Good luck with it. No idea if people want such small lights is micro growing popular?

I would want 200W of light for a 2x2 but thats just me.

They are modular so will fill any space with enough

200w of this would bleach Ur plants lol

You must be thinking of hps
Dont think so bruv. Dont fall into the trap of thinking your LEDs are magical. They are not they are just light. Done all the testing myself. It COULD bleach your plants if you dont know what you are doing I guess...

Edit> full disclosure I run over 900W over 3x6 do the maths

Fuck me! That tincture vape turned out to be absolutely LETHAL! 'Haven't felt this ordinary the next morning in a very long time. I'm still whacked!

@klx PM me - I'll send you some.
So to sum up, you decarbed 50g of bud, chopped it up, added it to the magical butter machine with 500ml of rectified spirit and let it run for 8 hours. You can then use that as tincture and the dose is 1ml, or add 1ml to 4ml of PG/VG and vape it?

I miss anything out? Seems nice and easy.

Don't want to get into an argument BUT

You are right my lights are not magical they are not even my lights they are made by bridgelux

50w per Sq foot indeed mate but how much light do U get for Ur 50w?

That's what it's all about mate

Efficiency and efficacy

50w means nothing at all
And have U actually tested it draw or just going off the specs?

What lights are U using btw?

I appreciate your feedback and interest

I might have to get me one of dem dere magical butter doohickies.

This extraction is Green Dragon while Golden Dragon can be made with ice hash.
I've done Green Dragon before but I'm thinking of trying Golden... I've got the filter bags and a little caravan washing machine already for ice hash... time to break them back out after bunch of years.

Vero 29C cobs run at 50W per cob. Note they are the "C".

EB strips Gen2 at 1050mA.

I am well aware of efficiency and efficacy.

Not arguing mate just giving my opinion based on over 5 years of LED trial and error after many years of HPS.

My conclusion is you are better off using the samr amount of wattage you did with HPS with LED and getting more weight. Just my opinion.

Oh yeah at those currents U aren't getting much more light per watt than hps so makes sense

Try running Ur strips below 700ma

They won't need a heatsink either

I agree somewhat about the matching watts

However I prefer to match light output save on watts and have less heat to deal with

The dam thing with led is the more efficient the more they cost to build but U obviously know that

You might wanna go check the datasheets. Vero C remember ;)

Lets end here man you have your set beliefs so go with it.

Good luck with your microgrow lights.
