Low budget light

AlpineGoatstarted grow question 4 years ago

I don't know if this is the right light. I'm gonna leave it for a week but if I don't see any kind of growth I'm gonna replace it with some good light. But since it's a wooden box I don't want to put a big light, maybe some stripe or bars, any low-budget suggestion is appreciated

Ah, cool. IS are good, I can only whole heartedly recommend the things I have used, or seen to bring good results. But 'buy cheap buy twice' usually. I'd just recommend goin with invisible sun, migro or vividled. No point buyin mars, may as well pay a bit extra for quality. You could get 2 x 100w IS boards for this cabinet, dimmable and they're full grow lights (start to finish) incase you ever wanna use em in flower too. Not much more I can add mate, hope you find something that suits ya needs. https://invisiblesunled.co.uk/collections/invisible-sun-efficacy-range/products/ish100-br-horticultural-lighting-system-powered-by-samsung-led 2 of these or https://invisiblesunled.co.uk/collections/invisible-sun-efficacy-range/products/ish165-horticultural-lighting-system-powered-by-samsung-led 1 of these

Ok mate, have you got a link for it? LED's are only any good if they're GOOD, ya know. So much nonsense out there. I've used Invisible sun and migro array lights, both excellent. You in the UK by any chance? Vividled are also quality boards. Problem is alot of them misrepresent (lie) about the board specs, so you really can't do enough research before you buy. This is the migro shop, good bar lights that don't get too hot https://www.migrolight.com/buy/ Do a few different sizes. I'll help ya where I can mate, so you don't waste ya hard earned.. Lets take a look at the light you already have if you've got a link, start at the beginning eh

Hi ! Ik bekeek je dagboek. Je lamp is wel zeer licht, 10 watt is veel te weinig. Ga voor een LED lamp, die word niet te warm en heb je in alle soorten budget. Maar koop ook niet de goedkoopste, neem een middenklasse🙂 Het hoeft niet heel duur te zijn. Je hebt best wel wat planten in je tent, het zou zonde zijn dat ze amper groeien en bloeien, en je een zeer kleine opbrengst geven. Ik zag ook dat je fotoperiode en autoflower planten samen kweekt in dezelfde tent. Dit is niet zo een goed idee, omwille van de lichtcyclus die je moet aanpassen om de fotoperiode planten in bloei te laten gaan. Je autoflowers moeten van begin tot eind op dezelfde lichtcyclus blijven voor een goede groei. (20/4 of 18/6) Ik hoop dat ik kon helpen🙂 Veel succes!🌱
