Not sure exactly what you mean but the only light I am using is a 300 Watt LED Full spectrum. Every color.

Your grow looks like its powering along! Good job!
Unfortunatly "full spectrum" is essentially meaningless as almost every grow led company claims to be full spectrum. Are you using all white LEDs? If so, do you know what the colour temperature of the LEDs are? Alternativly, are they using a combination of different colours? This is what the above poster is reffering to as RGB, as most panels using this will have a combination of mostly reds and blues along with some other LED colours to fill the spectrum (red, green, blue = RGB).

Aaah, I just read that you are using the viper LEDs. Since you have had for a few months, would you care to share your experience with us?

Are you happy with it? What do you like about it? Do you see anything you think could be better? How loud does it run? Does it have much effect on your grow temps? Anything I missed?

I find this is the hardest info to find so getting actual users with experience to comment would be great for those looking into buying a led panel.

For being my first grow I think its doing awesome. The light isnt any louder than a desktop computer. Thing does not make the room any warmer. It does not get hot. Maybe a slight warmness...

IDK I've never ran a pure Sativa but I will say this, that plant is pretty big for 62 days and @ 27 days bloom it's looking good.:bigjoint:

Notice my top thin leaves are dying... Its about 11 inches from the light... Even though LED's dont get hot maybe its still a TAD bit to close?

Can someone tell me if it is okay to harvest the top bud on my plant before others? I notice lower ones have alot more white hairs yet so what I would do is clip the top one off (When its ready), and raise the plant to make up the difference and let the other buds ripen for a few more weeks.. Let me know guys... My first time here... Thanks!

Yup. You can cut the main colas first and leave lowers to mature.
