    Finally someone taking about mixing LED and HPS together. I've done it for years and it really is the best of both worlds. LED alone doesn't compare.

    I have grown my own weed indoors in a 4'x4' grow tent using either 400 watt, or 600 watt HPS lamps for about thirty-five years and have often considered trying LED lights but have never found a good reason to change what I am doing. My results have always been very good. Also, every LED manufacturer claims their lights are the best, and they are all expensive. I wouldn't know who to trust. I will just stick with what I know.

    The humidity argument depends on where you live... I depend on my HPS lamps to keep humidity down because I am in a coastal city and our average daily humidity is 70% - 98%... Flowering 60 plants with no humidifier at all.

    The best grow lighting is a combination of lights for a more well rounded spectrum. HPS, LED, CFL, CMH, MH, etc. I run hps with an led and CFL for under canopy and side lighting

    Most likely the benifet comes from the ir in the hps lights causing the leaf to heat different and plants to transpire diffrently , that was the first thing I noticed when going from hps to led and I run mammoth so my spectrum is a good match to hps , wouldn't it be more cost effective to use some of the newer ir light bars over hps

    They are wrong in what they say, the emerson effect is not produced by turning on IR 8 min at the end of the light cycle
    The Emerson effect only demonstrates the existence of two photosystems, and that each one is activated or deactivated with 660nm and 730 nm and joining these two nanometers increases photosynthesis....

    • @kushismycologne3264
      @kushismycologne3264 Месяц назад

      There’s a reason you didn’t get a reply on this question. If you asked this question the answer is pretty obvious. 5x5 or 10x5???! Are you planning on running just 1 or 2 lights with that small 10x5? What is then btu of your ac , do you have a sealed room? This podcast is for the guys running bigger grows, you need way more space then a 5x5 or 10x10. Do you have a trolmaster to use 2 hps and led? This podcast isn’t for tents/small grows. Build a fully sealed 20x20 or preferably 20x30 x 16 ft high sealed building (make sure r20 spray foam insulation 3.5-4inch thick lat the very minimum. Then you can implement this.

      Guys like you are making weed nerdy. Hell yes trap rooms. I am in Canada and I will always refer to my business as “trapping”. Don’t forget most of us growers were infact trapping since early 2000s out here in Canada before it became legal. And after legalization , most of the growers went legal. Legal market crashed, now everyone is trapping again in Canada. You’re the culture culture man! We started growing i am an old head, and when we did it it was illegal. When we still do this, we mostly are grey market. Legal market shitty quality and no money. If there’s no money what’s the point. The point is the best herb, lots of money. Anyone who says they grow and don’t care about the money well that’s a lie or they are lost in the sauce. 🤯 Growers need to eat too, drive nice cars too? Why shouldn’t we ? We risked our freedom for this plant. That means we were aka trapping. Real gangsters we were, still are. Time in jail, raids, arrests. That’s all trapping culture. Anyone that’s not on this trap culture are the ones who were scared to do it when highly illegal. Real recognize real. I don’t respect pussy ass growers who are scared to break the law. Don’t forget the weed game is an outlaw community that will always be there. Weed is gangster don’t forget that. There will be an entrenched gangster culture within the cannabis industry . If you don’t like it , so be it. I hate the hippy culture , but hey it’s still apart of the cannabis culture as a whole. Stop trying to divide people and vilify them for still being trap oriented/ gangster. This gangster shit in our blood so is this plant. Nothing wrong with having Both. I’m from Canada it’s been legal here since 2018. “Traps” “trap lines/ trap services, “trap grows” “trap crews” is the language most people use here in Vancouver Canada…. It’s been legal here since 2018… still Refered to as trap because most people don’t participate in the legal market in Canada it’s all grey market/black market fire.

    On paper led is king, on paper a high end led light emits 220 lumens per watt, while a high end hps light emits max 160 lumens per watt. A led produces more "light" per watt of electricity consumed vs HPS.
