Are the LED lights any good?

[nicholsj]

Hi all, sorry if this is a stupid question but I know sweet fuck all about lighting. I plan on having 2-4 autos in a 80 x 80 x 180 tent. Does anyone know if these lights will work for my setup/ are they quality lights in general?

Sorry no info on that product specifically but I doubt very much that would "replace" a 600w MH/HPS surely a 250w HID at most..

 

I'd suggest looking online for local hydroponic stores to see what they stock in your price range and then looking for reviews on those products, there's usually growers on you tube that do reviews..

Thanks mate I’ll definitely have a look at a hydroponic store, would you be able to give me an idea of how many watts I’d need to cover that sort of area?

I'm sure anything with a *draw* of 200-400w thats a quality led would be fine, but someone on here will have better info...

I brought a mars-hydro ts1000 after I went though the poxy eBay special stage.

I think it’s working but I have no real idea on what I’m doing

 

I thing the ts1000 are like $200 something.

 

As always, spend as much as you can

I know fuck all about LED's but I do know if you want something cheap and proven then go for the Mars1000 for that size Tent.

What I do know is Auto's and I can tell you the only way you will fit more than 1 of them in that tent is if they are 60 days plants.

Not many of the early flowering variety's around these days. Personally I would start off with 2 plants Max.

Especially if you have paid shit tonnes of money for the Seeds

Thanks guys after having a look at the reviews I decided to go for the migro100.

 

Alright buzzo I’ll just start with two and see how I go, since you’re the auto expert do you have any more tips?

Autos can double/triple in size (so I've been told) when switched to flower, probably something to keep in mind with the size of the grow space. Edited April 21, 2020 by Bbq Smokie

Autos dont need to be switched to flower.

You maybe thinking of photoperiod?
