1000Watt LED Grow Light Dimming 8 Sunlike Full Spectrum Growing Lamps for Seedlings Veg Bloom in Grow Tent Greenhouse Daisy Chain

Don’t be fearful of name brand…This is a great light..well made components packaged in the good ole SE USA!…shipped and packaged well too! It could have used a couple of more styrofoam pieces between parts surrounding side support light bars tho, or enclose them in styrofoam. I’d really give this a 4.5-4.75 because of that, no power-off switch on the light dimmer switch, and the time that it takes to set up the light. But, it is a great light, especially for the price! So, NO complaints really! I’m running a PF1000 Watt version, which isn’t currently offered for sale/in stock. I’ve been running this light for all of flower, or a lil over two months…without issue whatsoever.I’ve got one of these PF-1000W set up in one tent with two small side color lights (4×8) and in another tent, I’m running same strains (Gary Payton) with just a Mars FC8000 (5×5). I’ve attached two pics of both tents with all being Gary Payton plants. The first pic with the fried leaf edges (sorry- like 3-5 days from harvest) is from the Mars FC8000 in my 5×5, so I do think the FC8000 is a more powerful light. HOWEVER, check out the bud girth on the second pic of the Pepper Farm PF1000 in the 4×8. No burnt edges…AND bigger buds than the Mars FC8000. So, don’t let the Bridgelux diodes run you away for the EVO diodes on the Mars. This was really my main skepticism upon buying the lights but the Bridgelux diodes rock! If I woulda stuck to my two day water regiments instead of 3-4 days, my yields woulda been better too…Always next grow! lolProof is in the pudding to me! I’ll be back to buy another light from Pepper Farm, whenever I need one as I believe this to be a good smaller company with detailed construction quality! This is a well thought-out grow light, and they are doing it their own way different from the big brands! Do yourself a favor and create a border to keep frame straight, when assembling it. It will help speed things up. Perhaps you can fabricate an old box frame out of amazon boxes to assist keeping the grow light frame straight and square during assembly, or one big amazon box preferably to surround the light assembly.Things I like about this light (and some unique features to it): 1) PPFD checks out ok so no worries there on Bridgelux leds. 2) High diode count 3) Has IR and UV included 4) Plenty of moveable light bars that can angle to distribute light better. 5) Dimming AND Spectrum frequency knobs on the driver 6) Driver can be seperated outside of the tent, and it is long too. 7) Not at all heavy, although it is kinda wobbly if not tightened tightly down when hanging.So, check out the pics and decide for yourself! One more thing…this is my opinion and I’ve not been paid or promoted by the seller to make up this review. I simply like to support good startup USA businesses that do quality work, and help out fellow growers in the process! Kudos and keep up the good precision Pepper Farm! Grow onwards! :) [...]
