Re: Icemud's Grow 6.0. Cherry Pie - GSC - OGiesel -SFV OG- University Hills OG- Perpe
congrats on the harvest mate, them buds look a nice size and look pretty dense,
also what breeder was the gsc from as ill give it at try at some point, looks and sounds like a nice strain
thanks for the LED info, my problem is shipping costs as im in the uk, my plans are to run 3 grow rooms, currently im running 1 with the watt dual spec, so ideally id like to find an led i can do a side by side grow with, id use my hps in one room and using clones id run an equivalent led then i can compare side by side grows witth clone, that will tell me what i need to know plus it may help other decide if their worth it or not, theirs plenty of journals on where people have changed to led and even testing leds for companies but their not doing side by side grows with the same strain so its an unfair test.
my plans are to run 3 rooms but using much higher wattage lights, my 400 watt now would be upgraded to a 1000watt hid if i was going to grow with hids and not led's, but the problem is if i had a 1000watt hid in each room then my plants would be cooked within an hour or 2, so what id look at doing is possibly having 2 leds per room and use lights that give out the same light as a 1000watt hid but in theory that means i could run leds lower than 1000watts per room and it still compares with a 1000watt hid, so i could jump in and buy 6 leds so ive got 2 for each room, but their not cheap so thats a big outlay but i i can get a 400watt replacement then i can do some testing then id possibly have 2x 400watt hid replacement led's in each room but i cant afford to buy 6 lights and not know how they will perform,
but your input helps so i will try a 400watt hid replacment in the near future and do a side by side grow, until i do that i dont want to spend lots of £££££ on something that might not be as good as a hid light, im pretty sure led's are the future of growing but they performed very poor in the past and thats what put my off, i didnt want to pay a lot out and find out i had wasted my cash, so ill see if i can borrow a light or buy just 1 to do the side by side
happy new year buddy
