Mohican's Kessil Grow 2014

OK - I am back with a vengeance! All of the LED grows are looking great so I returned my unopened 1K hortilux bulbs and got a second Kessil H350.





It is the Deep Purple model so now I have the Magenta and Deep Purple going in the cab.

The clones are exploding under this light. They are growing faster under the LEDs than in the sun!

I have 4 additional H150 Blues that I got through a deal on eBay and two more H150 Reds with goosenecks are on the way :)

I also bought some Kessil goosenecks for the H350s and some Method Sevens:





More pictures to come!



Cheers,
Mo

With one there was no heat! Two is getting warmer. The 350 designation is for output equivalent power. So now with two 350s it is proposed to be equivalent to 700 watts of HID light. The plants sure are reacting like they are getting 700 watts :)

Oooee i sense something good is about to be happening in here, looked at kessils a long time ago. Was just worried they didnt have the coverage they claimed, as most led companies were doing at the time. That being said what do you thin of the growth coverage to manufacturers coverage mo? That deep purple should help keep your nodes super tight! Good luck.

Mo sweet setup. i watched vid on YouTube. I love the who setup. figuring out the right lights to hang for flower is the hard part. i would love to play with that and have the money to purchase diff lights and see what works best. Mo yo rock bro. im subbing up.

It seems pretty sturdy. Aerospace aluminum and tight tolerances. Looks legit. Still trying to figure out how to hook up the H150 size lights.

It can handle six H350s which draw 90 watts max each. So 540 watts. The weight is not listed anywhere.

Zip ties is what i would use. also zip ties for the cord to the arm. this grow of yours is gonna rock. those lights are bad ass. i seen a par reading from them they put out good par.

They have zip ties in the box but I would like something a bit more reliable. I might fashion something out of coat hanger wire.

i went to kessil and read up on your deep purple lights. wow. im sold. jointed talked me into 400 cmh lights. this is what im gonna do in my 2x8x8 closet /kessel dp350-2.5ft/400cmh 2.5ft/kessel dp350 2f.5ft/ that will allow overlapping and hit all the spectrum's needed easy. Ill buy a kessel dp350 first. will take me 2 months to start buying. i cant wait this new light setup is for this lady.

Sweet! It sure made a difference in this grow adding the Deep Purple. The reds should do the same for flower I hope :)
