Does anyone actually get good crystal production from LED lighting?

If so, can you post pic along with strain and what make and model LED youre using and how far away.

Plenty of examples above but I can say there’s double the sugar on my led grow compared to last seasons outdoor grow in So California. Get a good light (with guidance from people here) and you won’t be disappointed :muscle:

8" at what intensity? I’m worried I’ll need to be this close with my rspec.

Lights aren’t the only thing to producing trichomes but it’s the first thing. Genetics, nutrition, environment all play a role.

Buy the best lights you can manage. If you are handy; build a light. Then you can work on fundamentals to produce better flower.

It had a 260 over it and was full intensity up until the last few weeks where I cut the intensity. My other plant had the same conditions but that one did foxtail a little so had to turn it down much earlier. You just gotta keep an eye them and adjust accordingly. Each plant tolerates it differently.

Just check out @Hoppiefrog grows on this site… there are many folks as you can see that grow dynamite buds with LED. They have matured over the last few years to be easily on par with gas lamps andbin some cases surpass them.

We’ll see! She’s still curing and one of the first I haven’t sampled early. Due to the winter storm Texas had I wasn’t able to flush them and worried they’re going to be harsh.

Thanks! I think Matty’s cross is mostly responsible. Jacks, tribus, and 168 watts of led fury lol. I should have documented this grow better to be honest. It’s garage bred strain, homemade light, and $.03 a day worth of nutrients. I guess led’s can grow decent weed :man_shrugging:
