    Hi , im planning on starting growing again after a few years out. I was a 600w hps grower.
    Im now leaning towards a led setup but do they actually produce good results?
    Im a soil grower in a 1.2 tent but always did very well with a constant auto grow

    Any help and advice or even recommendations will be appreciated

    Depends on your budget. I've been using viparspecta lights and they do the job really well.
    But if you want a grow that is as good or surpasses hps then quantum boards are the way to go. Invisible sun do great quantum boards , just bought a 265watt light bit pricy but wow it's awesome.

    Another vote for Quantum Boards here.

    Prebuilt options from the site sponsors Invisible Sun (check their subforum CLICK ME <<< here ).

    Or you can build your own rig by sourcing your own panels and drivers

    Either way you will have a cracking light that will last you through many many harvests

    NO SELL, NO SMELL, NO TELL!!!

    Why are they called quantum boards? Just because LED's emit light from electrons or is it marketing wank?

    Just a registered trade mark bud owned by HLG.

    Quantum relates to the physical scale at which the light is emitted (by photons)

    Leds are mounted on a board.

    Thanks, wasn't sure if it was a generic term or a companies branding.
