LED Grow Results: Grams per Watt

[medmaker420]

I am getting my numbers for my latest harvest under the white growblu panel of mine. I am uploading the video and once done I will be posting it in this post here.

Currently I am right under a gram per watt but I know I will break it as I still have plenty of trimming to finish up but for those wondering, I am currently at

12+ ounces currently and I think there is another 2 ounces give or take left. Now this means I probably won't be hitting that pound with this panel just yet but I am sure as hell on the right track.

364 running settled watts ( its startup wattage is 367/368 )
336* grams (12 ounces x 28 grams ) * this number will be going up once I am done today
but just wanted to get some "while its happening" updates.

pics and video and final totals coming later tonight woohoo
fuckin stoked and fuckin stoned as well LOL
a good batch of jackpot royale and jedi kush final runs yummy yum yum

I think it is more than doable once I get my shit more ironed out,

Scanning through this thread, it sounds like there are some good advantages to using LED Grow Lights. When I talk to almost anyone at a store though, they almost always say, "They don't work - don't bother." Is that because LEDs are better for small plants and most people want as big as possible?

 

[xmobotx]

no; thats because it is nearly impossible to get any viable advice from a grow store

what spectrum is the best for overall use? Lookin at a apollo 6light with 2:1 for grow and flowering! Any good?

 

[skyview]

no; thats because it is nearly impossible to get any viable advice from a grow store

xmobotx - I know what you mean but they're learning! It reminds me of that quote, "those who can't do, teach..."... and I guess in a store people always want to sell what they have in stock, not necessarily what a customer really needs.

thanks for the link. i have heard about that think different someone else.

I will be working towards that pound with my panels, I just pulled 15.92 on my vert side however I need to test the panels watts with just red on to see how it went. The reason I am not focused on it is because the panels were on FULL for about half their flowering time and then switched to all red so the grams per watt will not be accurate no matter which way I go about it.

What I still want to focus on doing however is hitting a pound with less than 400 watts of leds and I think it is more than doable with the right spectrum, environment and genetics.

A question to the diyer's using Cree XM-L WW/NW, what g/W ratio did you get out of your grows?

This is an awesome thread! Is it still being fully updated? I know all the craze these days is about the apache lights....I don't see any GPW on these lights. Anyone seen anything on this? I'm also surprised the other "big" hitters that have a lot of buzz right now aren't really frequent on the list. That's why I'm wondering if this list is being continually updated.

Thank you for this resource, it's great!

Anyone followed the Bonsai Hero DIY Guy? I find his research very interesting. Google him "Bonsai Hero DIY LED" I'm trying to find more information on guys who've used his methods and what kind of results they've had? Anyone?

 

[GP73LPC]

i still update this thread...

welcome to icmag

Here is the latest one from Bonsai: http://www.ledgrow.eu/test14.html

I can't figure out how many watts he is using though?

 

[GP73LPC]

yea, the bonsai diy guy is already listed on page 1 in the OP.

he does good work
