Damn so I should buy new LED’s then since I cheaped out?
It depends. If you are on a budget then it's fine to get something a little cheaper. But if you have the money to get something a bit more expensive you really want to be thinking about getting one :blsmoke:

Can you show me some flowering pics under your best LEDs on the market by any chance?
I'm not knocking your Lights dude, All I'm saying is don't buy those cheap shitty LED's from Amazon that are made in china. They advertise 600watts and you get about 100watts lol.

Can we get a growers only section? That way we know people actually grow weed that are commenting?
Listen bro, I grow weed in the best tent in the world. It's called a premium Gorilla grow tent, I use a Mountain air carbon filter which is the best on the market. My grow setup is the most expensive in the world. I grow in house genetics premium cannabis flowers. The seeds are very expensive and they cost $250 dollars for 10 seeds. Don't talk to me like I am an idiot. You are constantly trying to argue with me.

Well I don't know that much about all these newfangled fancy LED lights but I came across a real score on some LEDs down at the local Fred Meyers One Stop Shopping.

The Bright Sticks were 75% off the last marked clearance price so I got 6 of them for $4.22. They're 60 watts each so that's a total of 360 watts that I'll use in veg. I also grabbed a pack of 100 watt bulbs which were on sale for $11.99. I'll add that extra 400 watts when I flip to flower. So for $16.21 I'll have 760 watts of light. Beat that price for 760 watts of LEDs. :mrgreen:

I can't wait until harvest. And before anyone says "About a pound", let me tell you that I'm confident that I'll pull at least 2 pounds likely closer to 3 with these lights. Anyone that has anything bad to say about my LEDs because I didn't buy the best then screw you. :P

I've seen that chart. They use 17¢ per kWh. Which is extremely high and makes the numbers for the electricity cost higher than they actually are for many people. I pay just slightly more than 0.04¢ per kWh for power during off-peak hours. That $1,684 electricity cost is more like $400 or $133 a year so basically $10 a month to run my 600 watt HPS which provides plenty of light in a 4 x 4.
Come to the northeast bro. I pay 22 cents/kwh. 4cents is crazy cheap. Its grow in my whole basement.

I feel like power companies are likr yup...this dude grows. Lets charge him whatever cause they wont complain.
