I've been a member/lurker here for quite awhile, have a few very successful grows under my belt but haven't grown in about 2 years. I previously used a 250w HID then went up to a 400w HID in a 3'x2'x4' space. I have since moved and want to start growing again as soon as it's legal here.
Due to heat concerns, the location of my box and going "green", I want to switch over to an LED light and get away from HID as it would provide more flexibility and options in my situation.
I've been researching my butt off and have come up with the following companies:
Lumigrow - May be more than I really need
Advanced LED - May be more BS than I want to believe
Platinum LED - Quality may or may not be there
G8 LED - Looks legit
Optics Lighting - New entry into consideration based on a shout out from some members here and is a bit intriguing design wise.
E.Shine - not considering as they are not based in the U.S. from what I've read.
My new box will be:
3'x2'x4'6"
My budget would be about $650. I'm willing to pay for a quality light.
This is purely for personal use and I'd like to harvest at least 6oz of buds which I don't think should be a problem as I harvested 14oz from my 400w HID system on my last grow using LST and defoliation.
I'd prefer not to have to buy two lights as G8 recommends and find one light for both veg and bloom.
Any and all thoughts are welcome. Thank you!
