315 lec

[Boco2017]

So I'm looking for an affordable 315LEC light system for my 2x3x5 tent. Has anyone found a good deal on them around the internet?

[Boco2017]

This is kinda what I am looking for but without the glass. I'm not sure if this would be a good option..

I have that light or what looks exactly like it got it from eBay. I use it in my 2x4x5 photo tent and the plants love it.

Hey Boco, I got one just like that one, but mine cost 193bucks an its got an adjustable hood, it's on that same add your looking at on Amazon.
I can't complain about mine, it don't get real hot and it doesn't use much lectricity. As a matter of fact I love mine ans so do my plants.
ps-what glass you talking about ?

[D.A.A.S.69]

Hey Boco, I had to go to grocery store, sorry for taking so long to reply.
Next time you look at the 189buck light ,just click on it ,and you will see several different models to choose from. They got the 630cmh, to choose from but my tent is to small for that one, they got several different 315s to choose from.
Mine is called the wide model ,the enclosed model your looking at, I'm not positive but I don't think it's got glass in the hood, I think it's open, but you can email them and they will get back to you in a minute or two.
And yes it comes with a bulb, plus if you buy one , they get here in just a couple of days.
I hope that helps you some, but I can tell you ,I ain't had any trouble at all with mine, matter of fact I might get another one pretty soon an a bigger tent also. Later 2017.

[Boco2017]

Thank you for your feedback! I like the adjustable part and my tent seems to be around the size of yours so that's also good to hear. I wasn't going to upgrade the light so soon but my current light someone wants to get from me so it will allow me to upgrade without taking a loss on my current light. And I'm also upgrading my ventalation as well so it should be able to handle it all. Thank you again!

[D.A.A.S.69]

Your welcome Brother. I think you will be happy with it for sure. Good Luck.

website.

[Boco2017]

[Sammy]

Good stuff, great price, your plants are going to love the light 💡

[Vapo69]

You are gonna love the 315w life dude

[Boco2017]

I am hoping so! I wanted to get a LED set up but in reading and hearing from the grow shop the 315 LEC seemed like the better bet so I am hoping it is. Especially for a 2x3x5 grow space my only concern it's being to much light for the space.

[Boco2017]

The light came in today and so far I am pretty happy with it it's alot smaller then my old 6t5 light and a crap ton brighter. I am hoping my new ventalation comes on time tomorrow because this needs alot more then I have right now. After an hour of running it hit about 92.. hopefully with the ventalation I can get it down to 80 ish and maintain that and be able to keep the tent fully closed.

[Boco2017]

Also my seedling seems to have finally picked up the pace on growing it was stunted a bit when I transplanted last weekend it wasn't root bound but it sure took off as soon as I gave it a bigger pot. I'm wondering how long till I can move it all to flower the clone on the right seems fully ready but the clone stalled out to much so I may have to flower it a little earlier then I wanted but I have to keep the clone from getting to bug I trimmed a little after I did some lst.

[D.A.A.S.69]

Evening Boco 2017, your temps should come down alot when you get your exaust fixed up, at least mine did. Did you take that yellow film off ?
Man they are bright as heck ain't they?
My plants are loving it, I hope you have good luck with yours.
how high did you hang yours ?

[Boco2017]

Mine came with a blue film on it. I hung it at 18 inches above the clone, after I did a little LST to reduce the height and get the colas where I want them I have 5 maybe 6 strong colas on the clone. I am hoping so it's a constant fight on temp that's why i really decided to upgrade the exhaust (and I'm starting to get some smells too) but even though I paid extra for the 2 day shipping vivo sun didn't ship it for 4 days I was hoping to have it before the light but oh well haha. And you ain't kidding I need my Oakley's to tend to my plants now it's bright as all get out.

[D.A.A.S.69]

Mine came with a yellow film and i didn't even notice for a couple of days.
One of my eyes stayed blurry for a couple of days too, they are almost 2 bright, and no kidding you need SHADES to protect your eyes.Well good luck with it.

[Boco2017]

So far I'm a little concerned with the heat I have. In my tent I have a 4 inch fan and filter on full speed and it's pulling a good bit of air out and it's definitely warm air but I'm still sitting at about 100 degrees I have all my vents at the bottom open and I unzipped the bottom portion of the tent as well it dropped it down to 95 within a few minutes but it's held there for a while I added a fan blowing cold air into the closet space where my tent draws the air from but I had to leave for a few hours. If that doesn't take care of it anyone have any other thoughts I can not run an AC due to the space and also the expense of buying a portable one.

[D.A.A.S.69]

Hey Boco, man that doesn't sound good, have you got anyway to exaust that hot air outside?

[Boco2017]

Outside I can't, the room it's in even venting the air into that room is about 68 degrees so it should be plenty cool I am hoping when I get home this afternoon adding that fan to move more air into the closet will have dropped it closer to where I want to be at. I'm hoping to get to 75-78 and hold steady it's a little growing pain but like I said I'm being hopeful. I will have my better half check on them before going to work and hopefully the temp has dropped.

Hey Boco2017. I just started a new grow in expanded grow space (2.5 X 3.5 X6.5), 4" exhaust fan and new LEC. My temps jumped into the 90's pretty quick too. I added an oscillating fan and an air cooled hood which brought temps down to the upper 70's. Not crazy about the glass on the air cooled hood but had little choice. I think my next upgrade will be to a 6" exhaust fan as my 4" is at full speed. I have read of others with grow spaces around the size we have and with a 6" fan they don't seem to have an issue with high temps.

[Boco2017]

Yea I kinda wish I had gone with the 6 inch fan because mine is also at full speed. But I added a 8 inch fan at the top and that has me at a solid 82 and I added one of the co2 bags above as well that someone in another post recommend doing since I am pretty much at the optimal range for that and my plants are growing like crazy. I think I'm going to switch to 12//12 Tonight because my clone is at 3 months and my seedling is about 2.5 months the seedling is lagging behind in size but it looks very healthy and so far only showing signs of female. Since I want to be able to break everything down for my move in February I'm not going to give my seedling witch is a mystery seed any more time because the clone is growing like crazy and I can't let it get any bigger plus it has 8 colas on the clone but only 4 on the seedling.
