Default UFO + Aeroponic setup or 600Watt HPS + Aeroponic? *PIC*

Hi,

I have grown two batches before succesfully but that was in soil. I am very familiarized with Aeroponic now that I have been reading for a few days. I have this in mind:




We have all read the High Times article(s) about UFO and it's 12% higher yield than a 400W MH light but 20% less than a 600W HPS with greater resin build up. Has anyone actually tried the UFO out? Is it going to produce airy buds?

I just don't want to put down $550 on something that might now work. Also, could I supplement it with more LED lights?

Thanks

Yeah it was interesting. I don't know what to believe. I don't believe the ebay ads but this was a HT article. I would assume the UFO manufacturer just pays HT? Probably not but is this light really legit?

i dont trust the UFO yet. Too much money. I did however order 4 14w 225 count blue led pannels from ebay. I plan to use them with T5s and a couple CFLs. Ill probably get a few red ones also

Sup guys, I have been very interested in Growing with LED's. I stumbled upon a video starting from seed to flower and I think it was at week 10, Not a UFO but still same thing. It was Produced by a company in the UK or something and wouldnt give the specifics on how to build since if it does give more yield then they will produce them for sale for general public.

Here is a video I found on youtube compareing HPS vs LED grow day 25 flowering.
YouTube - LED vs. HPS 25 days into flowering.

LED growing seems very promiseing in the near future, For me, its still to expensive.

late,

Yeah but this article goes both ways. The ufo did better than the 400w mh but less than the hps. I think the 600w digital hps is the best way to go.
