Howdy y'all, issa me, couch locked. I was active on here from 2003-2012 heavily, 2012-2014 now and then sporadically. Im 2010 Lost access to old account (thats ehy my joint date is 2010)
Now that that's out the way, on to the reason for post.
I plan on doing a Small personal grow. Now that o-high-o is legal, i can do it without fear (quit in '14 when my first born happened, didn't want to risk anything with family in tow)
A 3x4 or 4x5 tent or 4x4. Lit with dual 600 hps/mh digis, or 4 315's.
Will do co2 enrichment with green air products cdmc-6 (showing my age, right. Lol) organic soil (as that's what i ultimately ended up mastering, started out hydro, transitioned to organics)
Just basically putting some of my old equipment to use.
But back to lightning. I been out the loop for a while, when I left LED sucked or if it was good it was absurdly cost prohibitive.
I've always known LEDs to be rather less dense. I'm seeing that technology has came a long way in the last 10 years.
So do LEDs yield comparable to a 600 w high pressure sodium? Like if I had a LED that was 590 to 600 w would it put out the same gram per watt benchmark that HPS will?
What are some brands to look for? I'll be lighting roughly 20 square feet. Strictly 1 week veg, the rest flower. This will be fed from ready clones or from a mother tent.
Also what genetics are the shit these day's?
I was a Big fan of tga (Jesus og, jilly, Ace of spades, etc) serious seeds (ak, White Russian), paradise seeds (nebula, wappa, sensi Star) soma seeds (nyc d, lavender) dj short (vanilluna, bb) big buddah (cheese) and sensi seeds (nl, Afghani 1, Afghani skunk, skunk 1, sensi skunk, super skunks, ed super bud)
U talk about these genetics with kids these days (god damn i said it) they look at you like your talking about "mids"
So tldr;
1) Good led recommendations that yield same as equal wattage HiD or better
2) good seed comp new genetics.
Ps, its glad to be making the decision to grow again, honestly haven't been satisfied with smoking since I ran out of my own. Finally can get rid of those knot's in my stomach that i get every spring smelling the soils and fertilizer in the stores . I used to smell that and get knot's in my stomach like i was doing something wrong by not growing this lovely plant anymore. I guess i was grieving and never got over it. Like making the conscious decision to do this again is making me Happy like i was able to resurrect my favorite dead family members.
