Grow summary;
4 independent rooms, 4' wide x 8' long x 8' high. Each room is equipt with 1 x 4" 165 cfm intake fan and 1 x 4" 165 cfm outtake fan.
Room 1 is outfitted with a 1000w hypotek digital ballast running a 1000w dual arc bulb. cost of this lighting system was $299.99 for the ballast, $169.99 for the reflector and $159.99 for the bulb. Total cost $629.97
Room 2 is outfitted with a Apollo 10 LED grow light that is drawing 2.65A or 325w. Cost of this setup is $799.99
Room 3 is outfitted with a Magnum Plus LED grow light that is drawing 2.42A or 294w. Cost of this setup is $1099.99
Room 4 is utfitted with a Penetrator 336x pro LED grow light that is drawing 4.15A or 515w. Cost of this setup is $2199.99
Each room will have an even number of female lowryder 2 auto flower in them. The goal is to see what if these LEDs can really stack up to a 1000w HID system and also to see which LED is producing the most GPW for the money!

Ok so I am finally ready to do this first grow off, I popped 30 Lowryder2 autos and planted them on the 28th of June and moved them into 2 of my 4 x 8 x 8 test rooms. 14 are under a 1000w dual arc HID setup and 13 are under the mag+ and regular 357 magnum par amp 2012 in full veg mode. They have been on 24 hours of light since the 28th and will switch over to 18/6 for the rest of the grow starting today. The 27 survivors will be broken down to 6 per room with the extra 3 going one each into the LED rooms. The nutes being used for this grow are Advanced Nutrients...
