Nice Harley, is that a basement? wish I had a basement to grow in, almost no need for A/C.
Very nice my friend, that's a huge space. Your going to be able to do great things with that area!!!
Thanks HK I'm gonna do an organic grow with peat, perlite, bone meal, blood meal, and some garden lime in 5 gal. airpots. I will be growing some G13 haze, Liberty Haze, White Widow, Lucy, and Granddaddy Purple as it stands right now but that is all subject to change before I actually start to grow.
I'm jealous on so many levels of your set up and strains! If you need any help with a Taste test let me know haha
I'll get back to you when the harvest is complete and we can do a taste test. Oh wait a minute you're in the UK but if you want to come to the US we can taste some nice bud I've been curing for 8 months now. It should be pretty smooth smoke by now.
Hello everyone! Thank you all for contributing to this thread! I've learned a lot and will be ordering 2 Mars II 700w leds for my first grow. Currently running 2 MH 600W for my 12 girls and we're about 2 weeks into veg. Already having heat issues in my 5x7 space which does have a small 8000BTU AC unit going so thats another reason for the switch. Anyway I will also be adding a BlackdogBD-450w LED too. Looking forward to completely remove my HIDs + ducting in the room.
Anyway is it necessary to use mylar on your walls with LEDs? Seems like keeping the plants under the footprint is imporant as light will drop off outside those areas. Is my plain white walls ok or keep the mylar on? I kind of want to rip it off with the rest of the HID stuff.

Just a few questions to spur discussion.
So are there any differences to the nutrient amount used when grown with LEDs vs HID? Differences in internodal length even flowering time?
The plants have way tighter node spacing using LED over HPS, hands down, no contest. As far as light and nutrients....
The plants feed on light more than nutrients. That's why there is so much of a difference in plant size and yield between say, a grow done under CFL's or T5's, and a grow under an LED or HPS light.
More light = more feeding required = more yield/weight.
