Changing from HPS to LED mid cycle

[makxterp]

Has anyone had any issues changing a 600w hps to a 680w LED mid cycle not sure about different spectrums affecting things

I start with LED and bud out with HPS. My plants bud much better with HPS. No issues.

Maybe you should not use your LED at 100% if it is more powerful than the 600w or your plants could stress because of too much light. I have replaced a 600w HPS with 465w LED bars and I harvest more with the LEDs.

I go from hid to led, it's usually a bit cool and I need to take it easy turning up the power.

With hid I could just put them under 600w with led I need to slowly increase the power, that could be temp related idk.
