Looks good so far. Can I offer a suggestion? That reflector you have is pretty restrictive. I would run something bigger with tapered sides so the plants on the outside get a little light. Good luck
 
well all iknow is when my hps reflector actuall covers all my walls the only spot it dont reach is were my led panels are another reason why i got the side wall lit but probly when my croop done in feb i might invest in a better reflector but for the moment seems to be working really good goin to be investing in a 600 watt digital ballast right know my 250 is magnetic

...also, I 'believe' those LED panels need to be within an inch or so of the plants, in order to be of any benefit. ;)
 
actually with the led they actually say to keep them 12 to 18 inches away from the plant can burn leaves

Is that actually written in the instructions? I'm with Hick--everything I have ever read anywhere says that LEDs need to be within a couple of inches to be effective at all.
 
yes thats exactly wut it says in the instruction owner manual of the panels they say that it can burn your leaves up real quick
 
...and here "I" thought the whole LED industry revolved around less/no heat..:confused2:
 
they say its not to the heat issue its like getting a sunburn from the rays that the led are emitting when to close
