Hi, I am thinking in buying a led light, but I am very indecise and as money don’t grow in tents still more indecise. (Note: I’m in EU - spain)
I have a small not-tent size of growing area is aprox. 80 cm x 57 cm more or less. I have two divisions of that size, one for flowering, and the other with height separations for clones, vegetative/mothers.
But, possible in future I will have also 1mx1m tent (3ftx3ft more or less) for flowering. And leave the 80x57cm for making crosses (seeds) and the 1m2 for sinsemilla.
I have recently made a DOB fixture, but I’m not very happy with the PPFD results. With 100W at 12/15cm it gives about 200 -250 ppfd.
So I will have to scratch my pocket, and now it is not the best moment, but must be done.
So I have doubs between this:
Phlizon PL-1000 (samsung 281b +dimmer+ 100w) - About 99€/$
or this
Niello -(220w) LED LM301,MN-W3000 576LEDs - 245 €/$
This one is apparently the same as the GrowStar MN-W3000 comercialized in US/CAN, but there the price is around 170$ more or less.
The Niello/growstar I think in buying only one, and in case of the phlizon, possibly I buy two, as I think it will give more game (in case of failure). But I don’t know if the niello/growstar will be given better results/grows.
So I don’t know what route take.
Please give any impressions, alternatives, comments… Many thanks, and sorry if I put in the wrong place.
HG!
