hello everybody
first of all let me apologize for my english...
its already my 6th time im growing in a tent.
till now i used T5 to veg stage and 400 HPS for flowering.
a friend had a some chinese led light (didnt find any brand name on it) and i tried it.
the plants seemd to look more like a bush with lots of branches and almost without steching.
thought to buy a "known" grow light but there are so many out there!
since i know that the led light that i took from my friend wasnt anywhere close to be proffesional but yet it showed some improvement on my plants. (only one function led - no veg/flower button, used it for full cycle)
i read like thousands of threads or led grow lights reviews - im no specialist so it makes it so hard to choose!
i want a grow light with full spectrum and hopefully not so expensive...
there are some that got better reviewes and you can find them on some comparisons sites when u look for reviewes.
but i also read about DIY led kits but how do u know which led is the best (or atleast best for low budget)??
the are double chip leds, 3W-10W leds, COBs...
i dont know if its ok to mention barnd names here - id love if anyone can help and explain or recommend
i got a 2*4 tent so i guess i wont have to use more than 600W led ( i know its not the real wattage and its only to say how much HPS its replacing)
hope i explained myself good enough...
tnx for the help
