RE: New 4x4 Grow Tent - Medusa 600w LED Hydroponics

Beautiful plants you got here bro! I love bubble buckets so much cuz you can individually feed/flush each plant as needed.
You might want to consider getting more than 1 LED to flower out these four ladies properly. I mean they will flower but you won't get the weight or density in the buds you are looking for with just one light.
I use one 600 W LED per plant and I average 1/4lb to 1/2lb per plant depending on the strand and how long I veg. (which is usually only one month) your ladies should easily get that much weight at this size. I guess it is all personal preference but if you are gonna grow it then you might as well make it as big as possible! ;) The only issue I see with adding more lights is you will have heat issues with these tents if you don't get some kind of ventilation.
In any case those are some real beauties! Cant wait to see more updates..

thanks, I'm about to have three tents with 2-4 buckets in each and one Spectrum King SK402 in each. Each light yields 450-800 grams in 4x4 flowering space, so I'm running one in each of the three tents to yield at least one pound a month on perpetual grow cycle.
I know the 440 watts in the SK402 don't sound like much but it's actually high output LED used in professional grows to cut down on heat and energy cost. They can cover 6x6 space in veg and 4x4 flowering. Usually yields 1-2g per watt while other LED's yield 1g per watt.
BTW the purple LED light shown in the video is 600w HPS equivalent but 100w actual pull from wall while spectrum king is 440 watt from the wall and has output equivalent of 1200-1600 watt HPS

Wow. I didnt know they made such efficiant LEDs now! It has been a few years since I upgraded mine, maybe I need to look into buying some the ones u are talking about. Definitely excited to see more posts from u when they are flowering out..
Perpetual grows are the way to go for sure.. thats how i grew for 10 years but I "retired" last year so i am doing a small personal grow outside this year.. i started my new babys a few weeks ago (cuz i recently moved this summer) so hopefully i still have time to finish them out properly.. thanks for the awesome reply.. take care.
