I did buy the 450w with veg/flower switches.
My first couple of ladies died… But this was an overwatering issue i ended up with nasty worms.
One thing that sold me on VIPARSPECTRA was a 3 year warranty… Most others were like 1 year.
I have a viparspectra and mehizi I love the viparspectra it has a more true spectrum with yellow orange green and different shades of blue also has ir. Mehizi just has different reds and blue
Hey yoshi
I’m getting great trichome and Bud development from my led,but I was wondering if maybe I’m burning up my terpenes production.Is this possible?
Really getting bummed out from lack of that great aroma.
Thanks for any input
@Lovthegro and @Usmcjojo light color on the VIPARSPECTRA v450 in veg mode is blue/white
While not supposed to be run alone flower only mode adds in red/orange. Per info sheet (cause lowly human eyes are inferior it has IR (infrared diodes) that just look like a pinhead of light… Info sheet calls them dim… (see pic).
My current seedling is under a led screw in style desk lamp, my next one (still in the towel) is going under big brother led.
Yeah I have a viparspectra 300w but I upgraded to a sk600 and 2 closet case lights to go with my 2 300w should be coming soon can’t wait to see the spectrum Kings in action.
I understand completely you guys want the best buds and the best smoke with the cheapest grow accessories , let be the first to you it "Will not happen ". How many advertisements you see on television for Bentley , Rolls Royse are Audi , Porche , Lamborghini …none ? Why ? Quality made LED panels don’t over load they market with advertising , only in warranty . Have any of you heard of Apache Tech , this is the same light most are major dispensaries around the globe grow cannabis with on solar panels cause quality equipment cost period , and in my opinion second to none for as warranty is Advance LED and Black Dog , MarsHydro is the knock off to these companies , so anything other than that is taking a blind chance , a dollar in a slot machine at a casino …I hope it pays but I’m not sure ? I’m ranting cause I should , if you really want the best of the best quality bud you have to grow outside in direct sun period , but to compare you can do it with supplemental lighting as LED but the right brand name that will give you the same equality in such for as growing dense buds . Now let me lay this dog down and put it to sleep , if you want a killer harvest , start digging in your pockets ah little , investments is what’s generate returns , it’s what you spend times the time you take to market that generates a return …look at Robert our guy , he done almost 20 plus years in creating this option that we enjoy for free but yet get enough return to live and provide for his family and be in peace smoking the best strains in the market and teach us how to do so , but if you realky want a great harvest , than you should run MH/HPS with Led has been my secret to the closes thing to direct sunlight …hope this helps many !!!
Thanks for the feedback guys.
Yoshi you have a good point in what you say about the price of Led lights these days.When you look on Amazon there’s a new brand almost every day.You always get what you pay for.
@yoshi is the man he knows his stuff I got 3 lights for right at 100 bucks so it was hard to pass up but I agree with him 100% on anything he says he has been a blessing to me and all the time he has taken out of his schedule to help me and I’ll do anything I can to repay he’s given me the most valuable information ever at the time I just didn’t have the big bucks to spend on a good light but I will but I guarantee you if you listen to name you will have some of the best plants from ILGM seeds all I have to say is kudos to @yoshi
I am glad to see some sort of LED comparison thread. Too bad it is all cluttered up with soil mixing Q and A forever in the middle of it. If you want me to delete all that Off topic inappropriate posting; I will be happy too.
It would be great to wade through nothing but, LED stuff… IMO Great topic to start. Peace, lw
@latewood it is interesting to see how a thread can go off the rails… Squirrel!
I started this thread just asking about 1 brand of led, im at fault too, they ask, i answer.
I understand the extras can put people off reading the whole thread but ima leave it up to you whether to clean it up.
