Money no object LED

Looking to switch my old 600wHPS/MH light for something top notch.

It’ll ideally need to cover a 5x5 tent footprint.

I was looking at a gravita 1700 this morning which seems decent but says it might struggle to fully cover a 5x5 area.

What would u guys recommend I look at?

cheers!!

Gavita Pro 1700e LED 120-277 Volt

see what nasa are useing for therer crop experiments

California Lightworks SolarXtreme 1000 dont know the coverage though

This man knows, their honestly not even expensive if you look around and dont get the scorpion. I fuck with this brand hard, and will prolly use them forever. Some dude plugged me with this knowledge and I share it every chance I get, if you use RIU10 at checkout you get 10 percent off.

Dude buy WHATEVER THE FUCK YOU LIKE no matter the cost and don't listen to anyone on this website. You will get 20 different answers for 20 different lights.

Quantum boards, strips, cobs and bar lights. Get what makes you happy no matter if it costs $200 or $2000. In the end you learn as you go and your choices will change depending on what you learn during your grow.

This thread will soon turn into a sarcasm match and you will get a lot of misinformation. Good luck dealing with it

You need to roll that negativity up a smoke it bud.

I have been very happy with my vero29s from Timber grow lights. 3+ years now.

I think a Redwood fatty VS would kill it in a 5x5.

What was so negative about the truth? Too funny. Then you make a post about YOUR favorite light. ROFL

if you go for LED boards, my advice to buy more light than you think you need. Ive noticed (at least with HLG and BudgetLed, so id assume its universal) that a light advertised for a 4x4 space is better suited in a 3x3' if you want maximum coverage from edge to edge.

Interesting chart. I was going what the... reading the $1600 they say it costs to run a 600 watt HPS. Then I saw that they're basing it off extremely high electricity costs of 0.17¢ per Kw. I pay 1/4 of that running off peak hours. Good for comparison as long as you adjust for actual electricity costs.

Ooooo if money really isn’t a problem get the top of the range scyence ones with the spectrum control. And get yourself a proper uvb led ( very very very expensive though ). Or get yourself some agromax uvb t5s

I'd go with the Gavita, but I'm biased. I'm averaging OVER 51 oz per LED right now in a 4 x 4 sq. ft. space, without co2. You'll do fine with any of the top LED's, it more important to be a strong grower who can develop an even canopy and control humidity and temps.

With that though, Gavita over packs their diodes so they don't have to push them as hard as many of the others. That in turn allows them to last longer without burning out.

2 of the scyence alpha dragon would be nice in that space $2700 though

Interested in the Gavitas, can someone point me in the right direction? I run a 600hps in a 4x4, tried dual 400's but was a bit hot. Want even coverage is all I ask.

2-4 GLA high light boards. Youd only need two, but why not 4!

No other fixture on the market gives you the spread that the gavita does......do yourself a favor, do a google search for "sshz and Orange Gasm" which is my thread on another site with over 42,000 views and growing about 1,000 views a month. It was my first grow under LED's, I got over 106 oz in a 4 X 8 space under two of them. There's a ton of info in the thread by many people, but results speak louder than words.

Here is 1/2 the room!!!
