Lighting DubV Tent Grows

[DubV]

All of them look f*cking fantastic bro! So, you can do a lot more plants under 1 led light than say 1 HPS? :smokebuds:

Thanks bro! My led has a 3x3 core coverage at 28" and any much closer than that and you are bleaching leaves. So with two leds in my 4'9" x 4'9" x 6'7" tent I can cover every inch of the tent without plants stretching for the lights. If I only had one led it would do say 9 plants in 2 gallon airpots. This run is my first real test with 712 watts of power on 17 plants right now my friend! I don't think any of those plants would complain either! :booya:

If you don't mind me asking... How much did the two leds run ya? The Wife and I have been wanting to try led but, damn they are pricey! :smokebuds:

 

[DubV]

They are definitely not cheap but they have grown about 2lbs already so in my eyes they have paid for themselves bro! I got a deal on them so it worked out to about 700 each. Less energy consumption, less heat, and quiet too! Plus I have the ability to switch into blue spectrum for veg, full spectrum for flower, and red spectrum for finish with added uvb for greater trich production. 3 year warranty to boot. I love growing with leds my friend

Well shit... $1400 total! I'll definitely have to wait until I get my settlement or hit the lotto! LOL That's 3 mortgage payments for me! But, if I had the money I would do it yesterday! LOL Someday! Well, at least I do have my 2 400W and T5HO's for now. But I know I always push the limit on my 400W's, as far as too many plants, not enough light penetration/coverage. I need lighting to accommodate my demands!

Thanks for the info Brotha! :smokebuds:

You're growing some fine plants in there Dub! Keep it up buddy. :thumbs:
I need to go see about some Afghan stuff now to cheer me up after you said what them LED's cost...

Damn they look happy and healthy, Dub!

This overhead shot gives me cannawood.

Those lights are pretty damn amazing. I found them for $1200 each online. How did you get such a great deal on them?

girls are progressing super well!:booya: i am a little green with envy, to have that much wattagefrom quality panels:smokebuds:

 

[DubV]

Thanks for the compliments my friends! Stashmouth I ordered one before it was available and got a special preorder price and I talked the owner into giving me another one for the same price. Yes they do sell for $1200 a piece now so I think I made out quite well on that one.

As for the girls it looks like my stupid Cal/mag issue is starting to pop up on the strains that gave me issues the last time! So I will be increasing Cal/mag to between 5-6 mls from here on out. I know this has been discussed before between me and Seymour about how lower temps lead to more Cal/mag needed in led grows but that is all the feedback he got from the nutrient companies.

The Cal/mag hungry strains for those that want to know under led are s.a.d, Dr. Feelgood, cream caramel and the biggest whore of all is pineapple express again!

Coming along nicely Dub! :booya:
