    I'm hoping it goes amazingly well for you bud,did you veg with the MH because you didn't have the LED setup for veg or preferred the MH?

    Ive only had the led since friday, so veg was under my old halide unit.
    I'm glad to have the led for flowering as that's what we all care about isn't it, the flower power.
    All is well, stretch is stretchy. The plants all look great, the fact they all have light and are not in shade or high heat is great.
    Temps today have been no higher than 25c but upto 70% rh, so not ideal vpd. I'll try some adjustments to the air intake tomorrow and see how that effects the heat and hum.Click image for larger version.

    Little update.
    The harvest under the LEDs was what I'd hoped for, 25oz. Ranged from 4 Oz a plant to 1 Oz for the smaller cheese, but that was expected.
    I allowed the plants to go with minimal training, to see how the lower buds would develop. Under my old hps set up, the lowers were often larfy popcorn, due to their lack of light. Under the Geekbeast they were solid little nugs, comparable in density and structure to the top buds. I imagine that if the plants were trained and scrogged I would smash the 25 Oz.
    The lights were run at no more than 80 percent too. The plants seemed to finish sooner than I expected too, about a week earlier if my dates were correct. Can't say I noticed a massive difference in the terpene expression, the plants stink like always.
    For the past few weeks I've also been running the lights overnight to combat the warm temps.
    Peace guys, thanks for your interest

    I've just about forgotten how larphy my popcorn buds were before I started growing with LEDs. With mine I can reliably get dense buds about 3 ft below the canopy.

    Well it's been a while now guys and girls and my final review is in. It's fucking amazing. Migro have now reviewed it and its come in really highly. I knew it would.
    It was a £700 gamble but it was definitely worth it
