I have an Advanced Platinum P300 LED Panel
And I just ordered a Floralux 150 Watt HPS Light as well for down low and supplemental lighting........
If anyone else has anything similar to that setup please let me know........and post oics of your grows as well bc idblike to see the diff it makes in yield, size, and quality.......
Thank you guys
 
Well i got my Floralux in today.....but im gonna sit it down in a corner and use it for underlighting bc im getting some yellowing down low on my flowering plant.......

My plants dont seem to start out very well for some reason
I mean they start out fine healthwise....look nice and all.....but others i see of ppls on here sometimes at like day 20 their plant is at like 10 inches or a foot already........w 3 or 4 sizeable branches off the main cola.......iono why mine arent shooting up like that the first few weeks. .....
 
I have used a 150w hps to add heat to LED tent in winter and when LED was broken and 1/2 operational it was a great help.. 100w LED with a 150w hps gave me my biggest yield from DP Auto Ultimate 358g...
I just switched my tent today to half 400 watt HPS and half 192x3 Mars for the same reasons Duggy mentioned. I grew some nice plants earlier this year under the combination.
 
THERE MORE LIGHT THE BETTER JUST MAKE SURE YOU DONT BLEACH THE PLANTS WITH LED ....READ THE SPECS BEFORE YOU MOUNT YOUR LIGHT AND ALWAYS PUT ON CHAINS SO YOU CAN QUICKLY ADJUST I HAD PLANTS GROW A INCH A DAY ON ME IN THERE PRIME

HOW MANY WATTS YOU USING ???
 
I'm using 1000 watt Hps and 2 Blackstar 240uv and one blackstar 500uv and just pus 4 23watt 2100k on a 4 way splitter underneath the plants for the popcorn's. Just experimenting to see what helps and whats a waste of power. I have a 900watt cheap china knock off led but not plugging that back in flickers way too much. I have 2 old school mar hydro 300s I bought as my very first light because the seller said they could take me from seed to harvest which from what I understand now is a load of crap. I have bought all those leds to replace one single 1000 watt but I always end up putting it back up because I just don't trust led. I am about to take the leds down them dont seem to do a dang thing to be honest. I don't know what do you guys think about leds?
