LED grow lights in a 2x4 tent

Post by The Daze »

Okay growers! I have a comparison question. I’m looking for the best LED setup for a 2x4 tent. I intend to start off with 1-3 off plants as my first go around.

I’ve heard good and bad about Mars Hydro, Vivosun, Visparspectra, SpiderFarmer and many other using the “Samsung LH301b/h” diodes.

I’m looking into the green sunshine company and their Electric Sky 300 v3 LED lights … I know famous YouTubers like MrCanuck and MrGrowIt utilize these lights … I’ve seen great yields on Instagram…

This is a long term purchase for my lighting needs as it’s a serious investment for my medicinal growing needs.

Does anyone have any recommendations I may have not considered? I’m looking to maximize my yields ina little space without buying the wrong kind of lights!!

Thank you kindly for all your feedback and advice!

I know most members being in the UK …have the amazing @Invisible Sun LED lights yet I’m unsure how those specs would translate over as well as I’m in the USA…

Who knows… maybe I can also win a light… December isn’t over yet!! ✨🙌🙌✨

So just kicking out thoughts for my upcoming grow…

I use California light work CLW 550. I would not recommend these. Ideally you want something to span that 4 foot width.

I have 2 fixtures from kingbrite (alibaba supplier), a sp150 from marshydro and just bought a spider farmer sf100 to fill the gap in my groom. The extra money to go with invisiblesun would have gave me peace of mind should I have needed a return or have any issues I know I could have reached out, don't think it will be the same with my Chinese manufacturers. That being said thankfully all my lights have performed really well. Alibaba was easier than I thought, priced well and running over a year, marshydro has been running for close to 2 years with 0 issues and my spiderfarmer is new but I have only heard good things about them. When looking at led lights I found a few visparspectras with faulty or humming drivers (on ebay)so I might not be as confident with them or maybe I just got lucky with my lights and was looking at a bad time for them. It really is a minefield and I feel your pain. If I had to do it all again I would love an oversized bar setup with a good efficiency rating making sure to reach the full width of my space(mainly because I have hight restrictions it suits me better). Sorry for the long speech.

Fecida 600w £50 each three or four of those would do i guess

I appreciate y’all’s advice and experiences! I’ve heard the horror stories of growers getting the wrong kinda lights setup and wasting grows
I will look into those ya recommend

I’d rather put in the moneys towards something g I know comes from a good warranty and not overseas… like china… with the exception of Invisible Sun— a future goal to save towards— euros are expensive compared to our US paper money lmao 🤣

As much as they are sold as "cr600" looking like 600w they only pull 120w each from the wall. I'm not 100% sure but it also looks like older led technology, hence the need for a inbuilt fan. I could be wrong on that one but just wanted to make sure you have all the info you can get.
Absolutely no hate 💚 I'm sure they will grow some decent plants if used right. Just maybe not the most efficient 🤷
