Taking a look at Extreme LEDs from Hydrogrowled

My lovely led light

Inspired partly by Seymour Buds and his absolutley fantastic grows over at the autoflower network, I have invested in an LED light from Hydrogrowled.

Just a small one – this beautiful piece of kit runs at between 35 and 40 watts, almost nothing! I shall see what it can do. The plan is to test it with soil and in hydro, to see what can be done with an entire grow running at under 60 watts, without loads of equipment.

This is an amount of power that you really don’t need to worry about showing up on your bill.

I’m going to be concentrating on single plant auto grows for the time being, for the sake of simplicity.

    How much did it cost.

    Including shipping $264.00 = £169 + taxes of £20 = £189. Progress seems pretty slow at the moment (using an airport though) but it is working… more shortly

     Got to say, a few weeks in, this thing looks to be shite.  The plant is growing, but the slowest growth I think I have ever seen. It’s looking like this may NOT be a good way to do a low cost grow. Could be a problem seed though, I feel another test would be fair.
