Sorry guys. Heavy into flowering of the Indica's. I'm going to ditching the HPS asap and going all LED. Even for flowering.
My reasons
#1 Police (I don't want pigs seeing my grow from FLIR)!!!!!
#2 Power (If I use LED's, at least I'm using less power, barely less, but at least it's less)
#3 Heat (They run a good 20 degree's F colder then HPS)!
#4 They are good enough (yes they are if you know how to grow with them).
My special 17 band predominately blue spectrum light will soon arrive for Veg. Using 3 Watt led's and it pulls 400 watts so that is good enough for me, given it works at least as good as a 600W HPS from what I can tell.
Alone for the peace of mind of not hating helicopters, I can't wait to run all LED's.

Mutant baby! Ah yah I'm getting late into flowering and doing a special nute cycle. I love this, you can literally see the buds grow 25-50% overnight! Some of these girls the are producing so much bud they are almost breaking off the stem; haha. Funny how some produce way more bud then others (same plant different clone). Genetics is a funny thang.
Going maybe switch up soon to a huge tent and run those two 600 HPS and I'm scoring a new LED flowering unit, top of the line newest technology with 3W LED's, badass led light. From my friends at http://customspectrum.com/
Damn those guys are on their shit. Show me a LED light company that is more competitive, both in product and price for the best LED lights on the damn market. I love these guys; we are good friends now.

What do you mean, setup? Real simple 2 HPS with Ushio bulbs, 600W each, 1 400W 7 or 8 band LED unit (soon to go into a tent with ONLY LED's for FLOWERING and another tent with just HPS or I might do I led 1 HPS to mix it up more.) and a small veg area with 1 pathetic 120W Quad LED that vegs plants just fine up to about a foot or more, lol.

I mean a pic of your whole grow, lights, plants, room, etc. I was under the impression that you had more than 2 LED units and less HPS than LED watts. Thanks for the clarification. Those buds should swell up nicely.

If anyone lives in California and has a valid doctors rec, I'll trade you some free herbs for you info.
The valley I live in says only 6 mature plants and 12 immature plants =(. I need a couple "care givers" to be compliant in the state.
Thanks a bunch.

I moved the LED light almost as high as the closet for testing purposes of light absorbed by the plants. So far 2 days have passed and they have no negative symptoms from this. Hypothesis that LED light is absorbed by plant, regardless of height from plant. This will be confirmed over a week period.
   
I know this an old post but man you have leds and cfls but your lights are like two feet over your plants! Look at my pics ..nicee stocky short plants because I have my t5 fixture about two INCHES Over my plants ....drop them lights next time
