Just harvested and dried 2 plants that grew under my SF4000. Total dried weight....21.25 ounces. 2 plants=21 oz.

[@Kholaslittlespot1]

Very very nice. Strain? How big is your grow space?

[@davedennison7386]

..veg time ? or autos??

[@Fenix_Venture]

love the par test. I just wanted to see wath is the par 30 % 50 % 70 % AND FULL POWER

[@andymaldonado9112]

Well that's a lot different then spiderfarmers tests say online. Glad I went with mammoth.

[@toddmoore3818]

I love your reviews! Please keep it up! Can I make a recommendation? Some (many?) of us growers have moved away from using a tent to let the plants grow to their full potential. My plants tend to outgrow the tent. I know it's more work for you, but could you also provide a par/spectral map of the lights in open air. IE without any walls? I realize the par numbers will be lower. But it would be nice to know how the light performs in open-air conditions too. Thanks again 🙂.

[@MIGROLIGHT]

You will lose about 25% of the PAR output without reflective walls of some kind. I am not sure why giving plants room to spread but receive less PAR is a better solution? Would it not be better to use a larger grow tent if you think your plants are restricted?

[@toddmoore3818]

@MIGRO I like to let my plants grow naturally, like they would outdoors. U don't spend much time training the plants. So the plants tend to outgrow the tents. I have white walls that reflects the light.

[@michael2305]

Seems pretty cool for people who use added co2. Might also be ok at 70% / 45cm for people who don't.

[@Freedom_Born]

Indeed, even 80% at 50cm would be okay, but even that would be pushing it. Def wouldn't want 100% without co2. Whether 4x4 or 5x5

[@MIGROLIGHT]

Most strains should be ok with 1,000 µmols PAR average but it may be too much for Autos

[@craigbartlett3263]

Just be conscious of the connector between the driver & the lights. Had one melt on me. Luckily I was present when it went pare shaped. I had to buy a replacement locally to continue the grow, the girls are in flower. Spider Farmer Au is in the eastern states & I am in W.A. I am waiting for a replacement connector. This is for the SE7000 that is less than a year old. As far as I am aware they all have the same connector. No idea if the LEDs have been damaged.

[@SpiderFarmer]

Sorry to hear that. Have you contacted the customer service for sorting this issue out? No worries, there is 5-year warranty for led grow lights, we will try our best to help you

[@diabetekAFA]

I have the SF4000, but when my fans are moving the led light slightly movies to. I don't know id that's a problem or how you can prevent that? Thanks

[@Eric-dz1we]

Shane I watch all of your videos. I'm looking at a new led grow light 4 a 5x5 no co2 maybe someday. Mars hydro fc8000 ? Or the Araya 12 except not much information out there what's needed what's not worth it how to use it. Why should I buy a Araya

[@gedeuchnixan3830]

I thought of a situation where growers might want infrared light despite not really doing anything for plantgrowth: growers who are living in colder regions like new zeeland and struggling to keep temps at the desired level during winter (in new zeeland homes are getting quite cold during winter time). Instead of using ventilation to get warm air (of the lamp and driver) down to the plants or relocating exhaust to the buttom to suck the warm air down; infrared would at least make the plants feel warm and cosy despite being just 16°C preventing the effects of cold on the plants.

[@Freedom_Born]

Handy tip: Use CFL bulbs. 23W is the highest wattage available in NZ/Aus for E27 fixtures (common size - higher watts for bigger sizes, lower watts for smaller). Cool white for veg cos it has extra blue in it. Warm white for flower cos it has more (far) red... both have IR (& UV in minimal amounts), but Warm white has more red overall. Good for flower.

[@MIGROLIGHT]

Insulate the grow space and use a temperature controlled fan to keep the heat in and the temperatures up

[@ShaunTsInsanity]

Look for Vevor diesel heater. Lots of positive comments about that toy.

[@gedeuchnixan3830]

@@ShaunTsInsanity I´m not struggleing with low temps, I was just thinking of others and kind you wanna help, but diesel heater inside a home? No freaking way, there´s a god existing before I would concider that. If temps would go too low for me I would simply put a smal air spaceheater running on lowest infront of the intake and it should be just fine. I´m not in the US but Europe so burning diesel for whatever never is an option to concider, rather saving up for some modern and mobile solar panels. And if the property wasn´t located so low compared to the suroundings a modern windturbine in addition would be appriciated as well.

[@ShaunTsInsanity]

@@gedeuchnixan3830 Thought you're having issues with high electricity bill, so suggested that option. They're pretty safe, people using them in garages all over the world. Of course it's way more easier to use space heater, just watch out for fire.

[@1UNIQUE1986]

What meter are you using to test ppfd?

[@bam18333333]

How does this compare to the photontek co2?

[@chilbertuk1960]

great review as always thanks shane.. if i recall correctly, plants dont necesserily need 1000umols plus to benefit from higher levels of co2 according to your recent revision of leds and plant growth with dr bruce... a dialed environment could allow co2 to be pushed higher and in turn plants will then upcycle more nutrition etc as they achieve a higher/ faster metabolism. Time to reconsider some aspects of grow advice perhaps regarding co2 ? keep up the great work #love my migros

[@dertythegrower]

Good stuff to research Chilbert 👍

[@flatearthgenius5732]

I keep my PAR at the same as my co2. 1500 co2=1500par. That's how I do it.

[@crnk3yfranky]

@@flatearthgenius5732 In a recent interview with Dr Bruce Bugbee, the Dr noted that CO2 was inexpensive and desirable at almost any light level. kzbin.info/www/bejne/jKelhaailMyGmdk 😀 Bugbee said, "No, CO2 is a low-cost input and the leaves saturate at about 1200 parts per million. So before you start paying a big electric bill you should always get your CO2 to 1200 parts per million and even if you have lower light intensity it’s still proportionately increases photosynthesis."

[@MIGROLIGHT]

Yes, you are correct. I was amazed to hear CO2 supplementation at lower PAR intensity can result in 20 -30 % increases in yield. It is something I will be exploring. I need to partner with some of these CO2 controller companies to test their products and work out theoretical ROI on using CO2 systems in a closed environment.

[@chilbertuk1960]

@@MIGROLIGHTam looking forward to exploring the same. Good luck moving forward, if you ever need a tester i'd be happy to ;)

[@AG-kx1el]

Is this a risk to use in the uk to grow cannabis?? I don’t know how much electricity it uses

[@тотсамыймюнгхаузен]

Shane, you could measure the efficiency of your fixtures dimmed down.

[@dg2203]

Im looking for that ur45 review

[@dubful1]

Almost identical to the mars hydro FC8000. Driver and cabling looks identical. Some mi nor differences with the cable hookups from the bars and no adjustable bar location.

[@budstermcgreen6360]

It is my understanding that this unit is a 220 volt plug in only. No 110 volt outlet connection? Thanks for all you do Shane! ✌️

[@SpiderFarmer]

Hi, SE1000W will come with 120V plug, it can use on 100V-277V

[@rosinstuff6762]

Great info as always Shane. Currently running Spider Farmer SF2000 for a couple autoflowers and like the results so far. Dimming function is nice. Replaced my Carambola Apelila 3000 with the SF2000. Lights actually have the same # of LEDS but the SF2000 has them spread out for better coverage.

[@SpiderFarmer]

Thanks for your love and support~

[@abramanderson8723]

great video one question is can i use this on a normal 120v outlet? or what would i need to do to be able to run this light?

[@migrolight.]

Thanks🤩💨 ! feel free to reach out I have something for you ******************** ✅

hi shane, please test lumii 720w led with lumii digital balast

[@craigsreef239]

Hi I'm thinking about purchasing a couple of these lights for a 5x9 not planing on running co2 yet . So will not run at 100% . Or would you recommend something different. Price is not an issue. Many thanks Craig

[@thombaz]

Is there a test for Sansi growlights? That the only one I can get in EU as a budget light.

[@mrnice752]

Will you be testing the Mars Hydro FC-1000W? I just ordered one and would love to see your comparison with this. I got it to dim to around 600W in a 5x5.

[@bozbozman1575]

Shane it is my belief that anything over 500W is too much light for 5x5 space. I can see many YT channel experience "foxtailing" from too much light. I believe that even with the light turned down, they are too close to the plants. There may be something there. I'm not all sciencey like you 😎

[@8bloppy8]

this is for Co2 Grows. i use 600w in 4x4(no Co2) and dont have problems with foxtailing.

[@iconoclasttastic9258]

Nah - I'm running nearly a thousand watts in a 1.7m x 1.5m space with no problems at all. Lights about 18"-24" from the canopy with PAR readings around the 900 mark. In my almost 20 year experience fox-tailing is more cultivar dependent than anything else.

[@Khaymen223]

I run 940 watts in a 5x5. Seems ok. I have gotten foxtails a couple times but I chalk that up to genetics

[@Freedom_Born]

Most 5x5 fixtures fit perfectly for a 4x4 with co2. Foxing comes mostly from genes, heat will trigger them easier. I know my beans genes so I know which ones will fox, so i don't use them in the big tents. But yeah I'd rather prefer a 5x5 fixture in a 4x4

[@MIGROLIGHT]

Most strains should be ok with 1,000 µmols PAR average but it may be too much for Autos.

[@Androbench]

Can you test the new lumatek 465w and 600w 2.9umol models

[@joeylewis2912]

So i got a question if im starting an indoor grow for cannabis what size light would i need to get to get my plants thru veg and flower im new and from what i understand if you dont have a light strength of atleast 800 umol you start loosing yield am i understanding this correctly ? Im confused im only looking to grow in maybe a 2x3 or 2x2 but i cant figure out what light is right i was told be friends the mars fc 3000 would be good for me what do you think? Is that to much could i get away with a smaller cheaper light or should i stick with the Fc

Did you figure it out?

[@DarkChild1758]

That's a beast of a light

[@Hubris030]

Going with a 500-600w light setup with controllable far red and maybe even Evo diodes is a far better option for anyone considering to move their grow up to 'commerical' scale which these lights are being marketed as.

[@bozbozman1575]

I agree 100%

[@jccuchvjvj]

Just dimm it.

[@LED4all]

Thanks for great content! Would be cool if you could read temperature at full blast with a laser too :)

[@MIGROLIGHT]

I used to do that but all the bar lights I test now run nice and cool. Increased LED efficiency and large surface area with grow lights means we have mostly moved on from LED burn out. Drivers are more efficient and well cooled too.

[@SpiderFarmer]

Happy new year~

@@MrMikeyBmore oh ok I see. Thanks for the response.

[@deleqtronica8733]

Everything has been pinched compared to 3 years ago, every light came with meanwell or moso drivers and everyone was using lm301b. Now everyone uses house brand drivers and unless you get a top end light, you don't get lm301bs anymore.

[@ryanwilliams5705]

Great review as usual. Just came across Hyphotonflux and saw they are incorporating UVA + IR in their newer releases, any chance of a review on them? Know of any other companies doing this? Very controversial topic. FWIW, yes I saw the video with Dr. Bruce Bugsbee but what he said was that they haven't been able to "prove" any benefit I'm assuming through an ANOVA test or numerous t-tests. Just intrigued by the idea I suppose. Cheers.

[@rickfields6199]

Great light but I'll stick with my medic grow fold 8

Unless you just wanna throw away money. Your light is still beast, you don't have a need to buy this one! So why would it matter?

Finally this amazon brand gets a migro review. They were one of the first ones over there in China whom started using the Samsung lm301 game to sell lights (marketing huge on amazon fulfillment to get that Prime shipment trust in their brand)

[@dertythegrower]

Now the samsung lm301 LED light game is like the 'flower' market over here, too many producers and it's a (race to the bottom) in profit margins 🤔
