Lightbulb my thoughts and experiences on led lights

i will post pics of the plants tomorrow or the day after tomorrow

i had some extra cash so i ordered five 300 watt led lights from amazon for 60$/each. the reason i chose amazon is because if you sign up with prime (10$/mo) you get same day delivery. cost about 300$ iirc.

i have a 2x4x6 grow tent i bought for about 60$, that had a 125w dual spectrum fluorescent light (which ran pretty hot). the plants (sea of green/g13 haze x something) were pretty small before i switched out the lights. about 2 hours after i installed the leds, my plants grew about 4-5%, they're comfortably big now with no major care. temps are good, the only thing cooling about 16 plants and 1 led is a 6'' duct fan attached to a carbon scrubber.

with the remaining 4 lights, i swapped out one of the two 1000w lights and installed the remaining lights, one light to supplement about 2 plants.

i save on electricity, and my plants are decent, good enough for a personal stash without the heat and trouble that comes with heat.


heres a link to the 300w i used https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1


my thoughts on led: fcking awesome ! lol. well worth the money.
