Advice on grow lights? CFL's and LEDs?
    #833329 - 06/06/18 03:26 PM (6 years, 7 months ago)

Hi guys I just started my first real grow in a 2x2 tent and I've currently got a 48 watt LED panel, and a few other small lights for my lighting. I was wondering if it would be overkill to add 4 13w CFL's over my plants and a 300 watt mars hydro LED panel? Could I still use the light I've got now with all the planned additions? More light the better?  Thanks for any advice in advance!

Edited for better wording :smile:

Oh wow I had no idea that CFL's were dangerous, I happened to be reading that people were using them with LEDs to get a better spectrum and better results that's why I wanted to ask, but in any case I'll probably end up getting the Mars soon. Will my 48 led panel make a noticable difference when I get the mars (if I use them together) or should I just call it extra noise and use it for a different project or something?

I'm not gonna deny I've read a ton about LEDs and it seems like that's the direction everyone's headed, but every now and again I stumble across CFL's so that's why I was curious, also probably going to get the mars panel at some point hopefully soon. The led I have now gave some pretty good results with a few low Ryder's on my last attempt at growing so it should be ok until I upgrade.. your plants look really nice btw! Hope they recover from topping quick!
