Still love my De's but I bit the bullet on (6) meijiu 8 bar lights being used as dedicated veg lights. I think next year I might start swapping out some of the DE lights for the Gavita 1930's but doing to do it slowly. My friend had a 12 light De room and swapped 6 fixtures to the 1930s and he's happy, will be swapping everything out for 1930's next run.
You won't regret it. You'll have to compensate for the lesser heat. So, be ready.
Ah OK so you say you've gone through all off @rkymtnman postings the last 6 years? You're a complete fool being completely new to a forum and whine on members who's actually been contributing to the forum and community for well over 6 years.
Do you got gavita DE’s?
Anything like this for Canadians??? Dayum nice idea.
Same. I love my DE's. I may swap every other row for a 650 bar style. I bought 2 QB's while back to see, bunch of Timber stuff too. I too have all my LED dedicated to veg right now. Super excited about LED and the future though!
Yeah that’s like 5 ounces per square foot lolI laughed at your claim of 7 pounds in a 5x5, with lightbulbs. It’s literally impossible is why I laughed
Smoke one and chill
Even his new larfy mess is nowhere near his claims. Fucking hilarious the weights people say they get around here.
It's certainly dense in there, what is your method that people are dubious about?Well thank God I took pics when you didn't.!
Seriously dude, get your shit together. This was a "bad grow" when I didn't know the stretch of a new strain or the thinness of their branches. One day I woke up to find an entire 5X5 tent with every cola toppled like dominos. It was a painful experience and I spent an entire day lifting up each cola with a combination of string, and yoyos. I yielded 3 pounds and 1.4 ounces from this messy grow and also yielded more than 200 grams of bubble hash. Here is them at 3 more weeks!
Thanks. I've been known to make typos when super high. I meant 3 lbs, not 3 kgs.
The "dubious" part in these grows was using regular household screw-in light bulbs from Walmart or Home Depot to grow weed indoors.
I can relate to a lot of what you say especially the heat and the electricity cost, running cost was my primary reason for trying led, it turns out that they are just to cool running, I need the heat from hid in the autumn/winter for both heat and humidity control.
I bet up here in the north there's someone running super-efficient HLG LED panels along with 1200 watt baseboard heaters 24/7 to keep their plants from freezing 6 months of the year. Lol
That’s what I think every time people go on about 30watts per square foot lol
Yeah I run the Slim Gavitas 1k's off a EL2 controller flipping 2 rooms and I never go past 100%. I'm lucky that my close friend is doing the swap from Gavita De's to the 1930's so I get first hand feedback and get to see them in action. He's on his second run, 1st run he hit similar numbers but slightly better quality. He's at the end of his second run and is already sold. Swapping out the other 6 fixtures for 1930's.
I’m swapping out the other 8 within a couple weeks. So fuckin busy building my new house but will find the time soon.
Did you find with your sbs that one half had different nutrient requirements to the other half with ec values, calmag etc, I've read a number of times that you need more ec/calmag with LEDs but not necessarily with HID what did you find?
No. And honestly, i rarely experience deficiencies even when i grow a bunch of different strains at the same time and in a bunch of different setups i’ve hooked people up with.
