If this helps... I would only use these lights to supplement hps honestly because of the high blue spec. But next to the hps that extra blue really seems to help things. Are these the best leds ??? No , not close... Do they work yes...i do think they are one of the best for a veg though based on price and coverage. I wouldnt trust adding another vipar to replace my hps... No way

the.only.wrong.is.that.i.should.stay.in.veg.for.2.weeks.more..and..you.dont,know.how.will.it.be.at.week.6..cause.ur.pics.are.about.at.week.6.you.cant.compre..a.plant.day8..with.a.plant.week.6
yes I know I flipped to early I could of gotten 6 or 8 more oz's. It was my first scrog.
Just look at the canopy size of the pair and im using a real 600w -one light. Not two 600w lights.

No problem, I just didn't like how you said that people who trash vipers cannot grow.
I'm showing you an equivalent light (approx. $200) to your two lights flowering a larger canopy in a larger tent.

My friend u cant know if this is the light cause:
a) you have filled the canopy and i didn;t properly in veg..and
b) your photos are in week 6 and i have not even finished the tucking process of scrog in day 8..
so you cant compare this situation..if u understand what i mean..

I'm in week 9 of flower my first run with these lights I've used hps in the past. I got given the 2 viparspectra 450w off a good friend he grows autos and said he didn't like them. So I decided to give them a shot on my non auto strains and the amount of people that say these lights are crap is unreal but each to there own but I can honestly say I am 100% using them again they are just as good as my hps grow no shit lol

I fully agree. Vipars are good lights and great value but qb and cob blows em away. The real joke is kind led k5 prices lol...cob and qb smash kind
When I first made the swap to leds I had bought a bunch of kinds xl1000’s. My citizen 1818 rigs smash them. However those heavy ass kinds make for good veg lights in a pinch.

It’s why I’m adamant about ppl researching and getting something good like hlg or timber
Or chilled you know if your going to spend money do it right. Now I do my cobs and currently running cmh as well.

That's what i have done till now with 2x viparspectra 600w..i am in day 8 of flowering in my FIRST GROW.. 1m x 1m tent..
All the haters of the viparspectra just cant grow..its not the light..its the skill-less growers who blame the lights instead of their wrong actions and parametres like environment, etc..
Enjoy Growin'

Bro, nice looking plant but it's not ready to flip. Needs atleast 3 more weeks to fill in more.

Don't worry about what others are saying about your setup. If it's working for you then go with it.

Other's are just trying to point you towards a better lighting choice. With that said 10 year's ago blurple LEDs were cutting edge.

Replacing? Why, do you feel they lose efficiency?
Well not sure if after 3 grows you will get the same results? At least add supplemental light...1 st time grower, I know there is more efficient out there. Would definitely use again.(For personal grow)
