strange, i posted during server maintainence and despite having triple posted, this thread does not show up in "my posts." this site needs a real web programmer to fix a lot of these bugs..
Can LED's do a pound or better per harvest?

Thanks, it didn't seem like so much, cause they were at different maturity and i got all the oz's over a month and a half. I'm trying to get back into the 4x4 and maximize that area so i can get my bedroom back.
i'm thinking of just getting the 4 blackstars with the 400ds in the center. The tent heats up pretty quickly with that much going on in there, especially the blackstars running warmer than the 400. I want to get another 400 and move on from the blackstars. I've added a cold air intake to solve the problem in the summer, not needed in the winter. I pump the heat into my living room and turned my heater down.

The 500 watt surround is not shown, but I am thinking this could do a pound.
Two 357 magnum Plus, two 400 CMH, and 512 fluorescent surround with lizard lights. 1150 umol of PAR, more than the 12/12 room.
This is an 18/6 room, the 12/12 room has a single plant container coming out soon with over 20 ounces in it.
The quality of red light from the LED's is so much better than HPS it is hard to even make a comparison. LED is the main overhead light in two out of three rooms now. The papaya shown has sisters testing with CMH and surround without LED in the third room. The veg LED's are just over a week old, transplanted the clones at the same time.
I have a thread on all that, I just add to this one 'cause LED's are so functional.

Just chopped a C99 under a 205 watt LED hydrogrowled and got 3.5 oz. In a 20" by 20" area. It was in a small rubbermaid tote. I used GH Maxibloom nutes.

Hey GP7,
did you find your article. Check out Dr Park Nobel Physicochemical and Environmental Plant Physiology. They are referred to as auxiliary pigments

Hey RR~ any update on how you're doing under the led? You a month into 12/12?
I can't wait until I find a decent female that yields well to put under a few of the flowering panels I have and cram everything into a 4x8 on a light mover and see what happens.
There is some impressive shots in here fellas.

I want to grab me a led panel to use with my 600 digital hid.. Also for summer I can run led an not worry about the heat
I think right around 400 watts can get you a pound with a led panel from what I am seeing ( dialed in of course ).
good question, how much are you running medmaker? you have quite a few arrays...
Jacky Brown, 2100 watts...
