Lighting Led or HPS or run both?

[Jtsmoker]

long story short end of it so I run HPS and no LEDs as of now but it's all about two change lol so my friends got a letter from land lord that they want to do a health and safety in inspection and they got 150 plant in the house lol funny but not so we are cuting 75 down and bringing the other 75 to my house can't wait and they are bringing 5 Kind LED that pull 750 watts each lights so that means that's like 1500 output each right? And they are 12 bands of light now these lights are crazy if you put them at 100% they can bleach the flowers white it's crazy so here is my ? Should I run LEDs by them self or do I run a team LEDs and HPS I can run like 5 of these Kind lights or a HPS and like Two or three LEDs the problem is I have no solor on my house yet or I would let them bring all there lights they have 12 in all lol I wish I had 12 Kind LEDs and there flag ship ones top of the line 12 lights at 1600 each that a lot bread but the lights are so cool if the grow go's good I will pick up two of these Kind lights

I'd imagine you'd have some heat generated even if you went all LED's (especially that wattage; ) I've got a Mars II 1600W (different unit, I know,) and even that thing REALLY pumps out some heat. You still need to consider some sort of extraction.

If you add HPS lighting to the mix, then you REALLY are going to have some heat generated.

wow i have 2 mars hydro's at 900 each but the kind led's look great i will have to look into them. As far as the hps i like to have my 400 it will run both 400 and 250. I use the 250 in late flower the more blue the better for the trich's and my 250 bulb is great in the blue plus 250 is not allot on top of the led's.

I have a big a/c in the room and co2 to it helps with heat and these lights do not get that hot like my DE/AC 1000s do

So I was wrong on #'s and I have to move 99 plants to my house can't wait or maybe I can lol this is going to be work lol big doors are opening in my life so cool they have more but I will not go over my script of 99 I think that's a lot anyways can't wait to see this power bill lmao glad I do not have to pay it

Wow, haven't tried LED's myself but that is supposed to be more efficient light delivery per watt. Many post here as testament to LED's grow potential with less heat waste.
