The PAR+ 240 PRO and PAR+465 PRO full spectrum LED lighting systems are here! This is a day I've been looking forward to for a long time now....the announcement of our new PAR+ V2 range. Take a look at these stunning new designs PAR+ 240 PRO - LED PAR+ 465 PRO - LED We have all worked really hard (but especially Adam) to again bring the highest standards possible and we hope you guys will appreciate the absolutely cracking price vs performance and complete peace-of-mind we're trying to establish and maintain with this brand. Every light has been assembled here on site and is personally tested by either myself or Adam before it leaves the door. Take a read through some product info below or click for a direct link to the 465 PRO. The 240 PRO we're currently sold out of but a restock won't be far away. We're also getting these lights sent away for some third party lab testing, so once the results are back with us we'll post them up here. HIGH QUALITY Manufactured to an extremely high standard, PARPLUSLED doesn't compromise when providing you with the best in photon quality and intensity. The PAR+ brand has worked tirelessly to build a reputation for creating the highest quality LED grow lights. All of our lighting systems go through a final assembly process and rigorous quality control in the UK by trained technicians before leaving us. TOP END SAMSUNG LEDS - FULL SPECTRUM LIGHTING With an absolutely massive diode count over a large surface area, anodised plate heat-sink, and enhanced further with additional high-quality deep and far red diodes, you'll be fighting a serious urge to show this off! With each board (2 x PCB's per 240W, 4 x PCB's per 465W) boasting a whopping 832 Samsung mid power diodes and 14 deep/Far reds, the PAR+ PRO range is a full spectrum lighting solution suitable for a wide range of crops, from seed to harvest.

https://ledgrowlights.co.uk/collections/lumatek-led-grow-lights/products/lumatek-100w Lumatek 100W 2.9 Supplement Bars We're one of the first shops to get our hands on these. I know some of you have been waiting a while for them....but they're finally here. They come with their own driver and plug so can be used as a standalone for clones, veg side lighting etc but we've checked them with the 600w Zeus Pro and they slot in nicely between the bars also (although you'll still need to hang them). "A flexible and dynamic solution to improve your grow results. You can either use this light as an add-on for your grow space that lacks light intensity, placing it on the top, side or bottom; or use it as a propagator for clones and seedlings. This light bar is compatible with the Lumatek Digital Panel Plus 2.0 and can be dimmed when connected. This is a great supplementary option not only for those wanting to boost light levels in unique and large footprints but also for propagation and early vegetative growth." https://ledgrowlights.co.uk/collections/lumatek-led-grow-lights/products/lumatek-100w

7th Sweet Seeds® Grow Diary Competition Just reserving a place for when the time comes to get involved in my first Sweet Seeds® Grow Diary Competition. I initially purchased And included along with my order So I initially thought that I was gonna go with this line-up Sweet Zkittlez®, Sweet Tai®, Red Hot Cookies® and Big Foot® Then after reading what some others here on UK420 were growing for the competition, reminded me of a couple of other strains I'd been interested in for ages. So back on to Sweet Seeds website to place another order. This time I've bought Mohan Ram® and Sweet Afghani Delicious S1® as I do like a high Indica content to help with the pain management and getting a decent sleep Next update will probably be my a photo of the additional seeds and my equipment list and germination plans(once I figure it out). Best of luck to everyone competing on UK420 and on the other included forums I look forward to following along and hopefully having a good laugh with my fellow competitors.

glad i won a £100 voucher and i have used it a few weeks ago on some veg lights and ledgrowlights have send me some extra goodies including some organic nutrients and these room shades below... and a shot of the skunk 1 i may have to address a gnat issue but there are plenty of sticky in there and seems to be getting under control now i will hopefully post some photos up as i get a chance peace out ....

Thanks Adam.

Welcome growers.. This is my micro grow in the shed stealth style! (Attempt) I've been growing outdoors in the UK for the last 5 years with only a cabinet to get my seedlings going. Done the odd seed to harvest with CFLs but nothing special. Then I came across the QX-75 LED board from @diyleduk which looked made to measure for my cabinet and ideal for temps being in the shed. Never using an led before excited to get going was a understatement. Yesterday I received my QX-75 LED through the door from @diyleduk and it's obvious these lights are miles above anything iv seen before for light output to wattage! On full power 75w is crazy bright! Couldn't believe how bright it was. Would like to say a massive thank you to Adam for sorting it out! The light QX-75 Each QX board has 128 leds in total. 120x LM301H (3500k) 6x LM351H (660nm deep red) 2x (730nm far red) And looks pretty The driver has a nice length of cable to reach outside my cabinet and the dimmer switch is a very easy way to adjust wattage The cabinet I decided the cabinet needed upgrading ready for the new light to give me the best chance possible.. Dimensions, 35x35x80cm I put a mini tube heater in and usb fan to help control temps. Then decided I know longer like access from the side. Swapped set up around so I could get to the plants from the front. Both pc fans have acoustic ducting attached. The bottom one bringing in air through the bottom of the shed The top one is connected to my 4" rvk fan that's boxed in for silence sitting on a rhino carbon filter. I then insulted the cabinet.. I put the inkbird probe under shade from the light. Attached a wac1 step controller to my 4" rvk to reduce noise further. Then yesterday I got to do the exciting part.. getting the light in and set up

Matched for 1.5m x 1.5m grow spaces and upwards, you'll have all the usable light you need to get maximum results in this footprint (skill and experience depending, of course). The aim with this new range is to provide a great performing, solidly built light at a price that makes LED growing accessible to as many people as possible. All ScopeX LEDs come with a 5 year warranty for full peace of mind. This light sits at the top end of our £1-per-watt ScopeX range, and at £900, when you compare this light to other similar priced and similar wattage LEDs from other competitors, there should be no doubt about the value-for-money to be had here.

Hi all DIY'ers, I thought you might like a look at a hybrid light I made from 2x @diyleduk products. First purchase was a 'Scope 275' back in the day, later upgraded just the lighting strips to Scope V2, which offer more deep reds than the original Scope. Then came a High Light 240 lighting board, which I bought after reading the following blurb: "The extremely popular highlight board kit - for true connoisseur growers - is back and better than ever! With new features and an improved spectrum; these are amongst the most advanced LED grow lights on the market.The new "High Light 420" Horticultural LED pcb takes growing to the next level. With a broader UV range, increased Far Red, splash-resistant coating, and a waterproof plug-and-play cable system. With 20% better efficiency than the original High Light boards - over 3 umol/j at low current - these Australian-made grow lights combine top-bin Nichia LEDs with an array of customised highly efficient LED Teknik diodes (420 total), that cover the entire spectral range from UV to Far Red (390nm-780nm) with no supplementary lighting required. A collaboration between Grow Lights Australia and LED Teknik, the High Light 420 board is the most efficient “true” full spectrum, single-channel LED grow light on the market. These new lights have 5% UV and near-UV (390-420nm) and 10% Far Red (700-780nm) for faster growth and essential oil production." Most of which I didn't understand except the bit that says "faster growth and essential oil production", and I was sold. The High Light 240 alone is possibly overkill for an 80x80cm tent but I knew they'd be great together. I bolted a frame together using 40mm aluminium u-channel for the Scope V2 strips, wrapped the frame around the High Light pcb, wired the Scope strips back up in parallel and hung the beast up for my next SCROG. I even sprayed the frame in black paint to make it look nice. Both the Vo ADJ & Io ADJ on the original Scope driver now at lowest setting, which I believe to be 50% - The dimmer on the High Light is set to around 1/4 turn off the lowest setting. In action, both on: Using the Scope V2's to replicate sunrise and sunset, they're on alone for 2 hours before the High Light kicks in, same in reverse, the Scope's fly solo for the last 2 hours. Full sun Temps and RH% sorted My Sassberry (Purple Haze x GG3) looking happy with all that light. Another week and there's no space in there, especially once the grid is installed for an even canopy. So that's it, both lights really compliment each other. With 2x drivers on separate timers, I can play with both to respond to the plants needs. Both on 100% would create a lot of heat and probably burn the plants, but reducing both to half voltage, using only the Scope for the first and last 2hrs, I should keep running costs and heat down.

it was exciting to see this competition a few month back and i was likeing it, thinking ill be involved but i never got around to the entry so im going to do my photo diary from now as the plants are at a stage were it gets interesting and hopefully you can just enjoy what you see... just thought about maybe i should look at the camera setting to compensate for the brightness so i try that next time.

A massive thank you to everyone who's taken part in our diary competition - @TheGreenShabeenReturns, @HEAVY_SMOKER, @Notorious B.U.D, @Mischief-Crew, @Shumroom, @growinggold, @SYZYGY, @lildaveham, @vince noir rock n roll star, @Moju, @Lazy Dayz, @Dan t, @Ranec, @Văru', @Larry Badgeley, @Sid the sloth, @Geoff, @iShouldCoCo, @Dirk-Diggler There have been way more entrants worthy of the shortlist than I could reasonably list for voting. Me and Adam really felt ruthless not including so many of these but we had to narrow it down as much as possible. With that being said, we couldn't bring ourselves to nominate any less than 8 of you guys. And big shout out to @InTheSystem who has very selflessly bowed out to allow someone else to make the shortlist. Please take a look through each person's amazing diary (link to each below in no particular order) and drop a vote for whoever you think is worthy of winning the £1000 prize, out of the 8 we've shortlisted. Sorry to everyone who didn't make it, it was very close.

Hi lighting folks, does anyone have experience with the Highlight V2 boards? I was looking at the (sold out) Par+ 240v which offers 2x panels for roughly the same price, when the High Light V2 240w caught my eye. I'm def a sucker for extra spectrum, especially when they entice us with 'faster growth, and essential oil production' Spectrum porn: 120x LT-3030 Narrow Band 3000K (CRI 95) 120x Nichia 3030 NF2W757V3-F1 “Vitasolis" 3000K (CRI 80) 90x Nichia 3030 NF2W757HT-F1 5000K (CRI 70) 30x LT-3030 PC Blue (1x 405nm die + 2x 420nm dies) 40x LT-3535 Deep Red (660nm) 20x LT-3535 Infrared (730nm) Anyone use these, or have experience with the V1 High Light boards?

Hey everyone hope your doing well. Wacky times at the minute, I was in the shop and some old fella looked at the till assistant and outreaches his hand after he dug out a treasure trove load of coins from his pocket! Then drops them all on the counter which seemingly took forever haha sounded like hail! But whilst doing this he says "Put them in the charity box Son." and the best it about it was the bloody box was literally 4 inches from where he dropped them onto the counter. The till assistant must have been looking around for Jeremy Beadle. This here diary will be one containing glimpses into what beers I'm drinking for instance, I'm drinking birra moretti tonight. Night before it was erdinger dunkel, that will make your pish smell alright. Usually hit the holsten pils though. The odd funny pic may slip on into the diary and even the occasional joke if they are PC enough. Really looking forward to doing this diary for everyone and a big thanks to the UK420 team and @teehee @splifi @Professor_X @Slippy One @zeroG @diyleduk @Lamster67 Sometimes for me just talking/writing shit and trying not to be a dick is the best medicine going about! So pop open your can of smingles or get tucked into your Jen&Kerri's here comes the first wave of my diary hope y'all enjoy so dim the lights and roll up a doob for the one time extravaganza the one and only Why"A"Ree! nudge nudge get it, don't be too mean about my bushweed botch up hoping it's more of a Wow"A"Ree than a Why"A"Ree. Enough of me talking gobbledygook. The grow will be of a plant I germed and vegged so far under a 6000K 40w light 600mmx600mm in size. Once my last grow has finished drying I will be moving it into the room with a lumatek attis 200 the whole way through from when I re pot it into a bigger pot from the 3.5 litre pot it is in at the minute, until its flowered and I get our auld danye son to go in and karatekid the fuck out of it. I'll be using the highly recommended clover multi purpose soil straight out of the beg, right! The beg! I have some blood bone and fish meal and also some potash I might or might knock into the soil when potting up. Don't know, think of this grow like the pantomime, feel free to shout in yer 2p, like don't be adding that ya gluebeg! Lucas formula with some other stuff added in. I know it was devised for general hydroponics nutes but I'll be doing it with advanced nutrients because I heard ya can, so spit your tea out, bite your tongue or call me a buffoon that's what we are rolling with. The room size that it will be moved into under the influence of the attis 200 will be 1.2high x 1.1wide x 1.4long. Snugger than a family of unwelcome roosting pigeons under your PVP panels. Thanks again everyone really hyped to have a stab at this comp, took me ages even just getting thisone post up but I really really don't mind I like to pour the contents of my grey matter onto the white matter in the latter half of the day. Right must stop with the rambling her patience is wearing thin and my eyes are on fire looking at this screen for 4 hrs! I'm so not handy with computers and phones, or maybe it's the water fuckits and morettis I've been doing. Thank fuck this saved I thought it wiped, phew here's the plant porn Bye everyone
