Lighting LED Panel Suggestion/Advice for Secret Jardin DS60

[anunnaki]

I'm not sure if this is the right section for this topic but if Mod think that it's now feel free to move it...

Hello again,

as maybe some of you saw in Introduction thread, topic that i made related to my tent:
https://www.autoflower.org/f35/hello-afn-38208.html

if you are lazy to check it out i will write here my specifications...

Tent: SJ Dark Street II (60x60x150cm)
Ventilation: RVK125E2-L1 Systemair LTI Duct Fan 340m³/h dimmed to noiseless.

i used to grow on HIDz now i'm willing to upgrade my tent with LEDz!

Now i would like your suggestion since i'm planning to spend about 400-500 euros on led panel/s.

My needs are just for myself use so i need some really good lights that will grant me nice harvest until next grow...

i was researching forum a little and what i found so far interesting for me to buy:

- 2x e.Shine 3G series panels 150x3w (with custom spectrum but still searching which one will give me top results)
or
- 2x Apollo 8 (custom spectrum)
or even
- 1x e.Shine 5G series panel 320w (factory spectrum since they are possible to custom on few units ordering)

or maybe combinations of some of those like 3G series panel 150x3w + 5G Series with factory spectrum, or combination with Apollo.

As well i'm not sure about lenses. I was thinking to go for 60 degree primary/ 90 degree secondary lenses.

Or maybe some other brand... (related to GN i already w8 for their unit and i cant w8 anymore after six months of waiting since i'm running out of stock) :Hookah:

Any kind of suggestion, feedback or idea is welcome!

Regards,

Hi. Ive got exact the same Tent and ive done good with a 180w Topled Ufo. Added a 2nd one now to get optimized Power in there. Cheap Solution i would go with 2 of them or a 300w Panel. Had nice results even with one of the Ufos they make Dank Nugs 4 sure.

Im running dual 320w leds in a 4x4 and like my results. There are a ton of led manufacturers out there today! I would have to say, I would go with a reputable brand name and most importantly, a company that stands behind a good warranty!!

 

[anunnaki]

Which brand you have?

I have the California Lightworks Solar Storm 400s. I am happy with them and have had them both for 2 years and been running 20 on 4 off since I got em.

I have some apollo 6's they are strong built and are modular so if you run into a problem easy fix. I would personally go with a modular just for that reason. I also have a 300 watt generic ufo type light while it is good not nerely the light the apollo is. I am not bashing any lights either just my opinion. I am also running a huge ass COB very well built wicked bright in conjunction with apollo's both factory spectrum. my plants at 18 days today are pretty big . I have a 5x5 tent but will be getting a 4x8 in the new year

I'm using Vipar LEDs m8, great results considering the small outlay.. my tents just slightly bigger than yours and iv done 4 plants at once in it with a single 300w panel and got about 6 oz dry smoke.. wudn do 4 in there again but that's a different story.. my grows r on here if u click through my name you can see wat kind of results u can get from a £100 Vipar panel.. good luck bro
