HLG 135 around $350.

Fuck me for $100 more I know which one ide pick.
Ide bet that the HLG would produce more than $100 worth of buds in the first run.

Are all LED light owners a bit retarded ?

serious question

 

[Bakedcake]

I would go with HLG over Mars from seeing people grow with both, even ChillLED's are overpriced compared to the HLG's

that would probs be overkill frank
only got a sm 3x3 closet that i norm vegg in and then wack em outside after 3-4 wks
heat is biggest prob 4 me as can get above 30 when its hot

Bob. I've got the HLG 135 - I previously posted a veg picture on Defsnotacop post. I also flowered( as a test) two small cuttings( in 4 litre pots and 4 weeks veg) with the light. The light produced 4.5 ounces (= 1 gpw) but I didn't take a photo of them. The lights are really easy to set up. I'm currently vegging with it again( round three), but temporarily switched over to HPS 400w last week(so I can't get you a current photo), as HGL135 was not maintaining heat in tent during winter. I'm totally convinced by HGL, and have recently bought 3 X HGL260s for my flower tent. If three lights gets too hot in summer, it's simple to move the drivers outside the tent.

Billy got an email from baked beans cos he was in a group email with me, it was an enquiry about those new Autos from Ethos.
I wanted the og auto and Billy liked the sound of the pluto one

[Billygoat]

[afghan bob]

[afghan bob]

Q.B.L online

 

[afghan bob]

i understand where connections go but they dont provide colour refs

 

[Billygoat]

bit strange.

Selling a light kit without instruction and suggesting to pay an electrician to wire it... Why wouldn't they just wire them up and then send out?
