What is Reddit's opinion of BLOOM PLUS LED Grow Light BP 1000W 2x2ft Coverage Sunlike Full Spectrum Grow Light for Indoor Plants with 336packs Samsung Diodes(Includes IR)?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

i have mine under this light (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B082Y1PMWF/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_fabc_r7fYFbGGNGBHX) for about 16 hours a day. the top of the plant is about 2 feet from the light, the tree itself is about 2 feet tall! she seems to fucking love it, consistent new growth even through this winter. she’s kinda off to the side as cacti are the main thing under the light

I got this one and know another person using the exact same one for yotes. Works just fine and it's cheap.

This would be better at your price point.

Since your on a budget, the Bloom Plus 1000 may be your choice. I heard some people here having success with it and it is better than just a window.

Stem looks frail so I may suggest adding dirt to bury it higher, I had a seedling collapse under its own weight sadly one time.

Otherwise, beautiful green color and looks great, congrats/ take care of her!

What is your budget? This light is only 59.00 and covers 2x2 perfectly has great full spectrum coverage and reviews.

Appreciate the help, everyone! I ended up spending a few extra bucks and purchasing:

Unfortunately I’m in Canada, so grow lights are quite expensive up here.

Thoughts on this one ?

The sun lol. 🌞 But seriously, ambient room light is enough if you have a window. But if you're in a grow room with no natural light, I've seen this one highly recommended

What type of lights are those? My guess is that those bulbs aren't putting out enough light for the plant. There are lights designed to put out a higher intensity light specifically for growing.

For example, I just picked up one of these LED boards off of Amazon for my 2x2 tent

How many plants are you hoping to grow at once?

I bought one of these. I did a lot of research and while there are certainly better lights on the market, this one seems to be a lot of bang for your buck. You could buy 2 or 3 and still spend significantly less $ than you'd pay for one of those bigger more powerful lights from more reputable brands.

Take this with a grain of salt as I'm no expert. Maybe someone else with more experience could chime in about this particular QB. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B082Y1PMWF/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_AJKJAVGWQT8EPQVF1A6T?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

Do you look at ppfd at all?

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B082Y1PMWF/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apan_glt_fabc_7AFM0S4WN2WNM75VXKXG?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

I got this for my plants, I'm pretty sure it burned my Drosera, which I'm nursing back by keeping it surrounded in a plastic cup for humidity. But my nepenthes seem to be doing well under it.

For learning purposes the one you have linked is better than this one for example because the light is more intense? light And it's better than the one I originally posted because it's constructed better and has a driver?

I guess it depends on your budget, I have a Bloom plus BP1000 and it's works well, they dropped price on Amazon as well.

I'd like to see what other people suggest.

That's what I use and it's not that hot

What kinda grow setup are you gonna use? Honestly the biggest thing is making sure you have a powerful enough light. Something that costs like $80 on Amazon should do the job.

Most people will tell you fox farms soil is the best for growing and I agree.

The biggest hurdle to get over is feeling comfortable training and bending the plant. I was in constant fear of breaking them but now I realize how elastic and moldable they are. I just use string taped to the pot to bend them any way I want. For best yields it’s good to get the lower buds as much light as possible.

Here’s the lights I use

I may be misunderstanding what I actually have. I don't quite fully grasp everything about lights and there is limited information in this listing and my Google searches led me on an engineering adventure to calculate wattage and so on.

this is the light. great customer service btw. it says it draws 90w. equal to “1000 watt”. so take that as you will. but they have only added about $60 bucks on my electricity bill per month when running them 24/7

Honestly I would vote for SF1000 by Spider Farmer, after that on a budget I have heard of people liking the BP1000 from Bloom PLus

These are safe lights and a Samsung lm301, dimming Mean Well combo is a good way to go.

Don't get this light which I just tested and was quite dangerous:

Dammit and I know you're right. The other one I'm looking at had a$15 coupon making it $65 but I know you're right and this one's better...

Slightly different but both good.

Thank you! I’m using:BLOOM PLUS LED Grow Light BP 1000W

Check out the Bloom Plus on Amazon. Affordable, efficient pulling undee 100W from the wall, will grow a plant straight through its entire life, and will last a long time.

Another that’s really good, dimmable (which is the feature I like), is the Viparspectra P1000. Also very efficient pulling 100W from the wall. I have this light and have grown many cannabis plants, with excellent results.

I am using a pot for pot's grow kit as well
I have no fans running inside and the temp/humidity fluctuates between 73-80deg/40-50% throughout the day.
I recently just moved the seedling into its forever pot on the 16th (was yellowing before i moved it).
I also switched to a 18/6 light schedule after repotting (was running 24 hours before)
What is causing the yellowing? How can i fix this?

Yeah you definitely want to invest in a quantum board. Avoid those blurple Amazon lights.

Amazon has some good deals on a few smaller quantum boards right now. This one here is 100w so you'd probably need to buy 3 if you're going to grow 5 or 6 plants

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B082Y1PMWF/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_FB4DKDYDEXW8ZECH1AJS?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

Or you can go with a bigger light like this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07PLYR5HG/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_5Q5GSP59G0QJ90DPKS0Y?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

OK, curious how those buckets work out. I have never seen a RDWC where the reservoir wasn't at the same height as the rest of them. Not saying it can't work of course.

As for the lights, those are what I was expecting and I have used them as well but never for anything that flowers as I just expected them to be far too low light output. For tomatoes I used a line of these below - judging by your setup I think you could do with 5 of them - which worked well and I can tell you are MASSIVELY brighter and full spectrum from what you are using. But give what you have a try being sensitive yourself to looking out for signs of too little light. FWIW, read the reviews of yours though - they are not 45w, they generally pull 1/3 of that while the below are about 90 -100w for the smallest "1000" version. If you can find a way to grow 6 flowering tomato plats with 90w (15 x 6 you have) you have succeeded in doing something I don't think anyone has been able to do!

Sorry, I know your question was around nutes and water but my $0.02 is your lights need the most attention from what I see in the setup. Out of curiosity, do you know why the 2 plants by the window are the biggest? Is that a coincidence?

Im thinking this instead as suggested. I also already have two super cheap lights would it be cool to use all 3 in a 2x4? Have the one in the middle with the super cheaps on either side? 🤷‍♀️

I think im gonna go with this one instead...

This is a pretty good knock off of one of the better spider farmer lights and has a dimmer so you take it from germ to flower . You may want to suppliment flower phase with an extra bloom plus bp1000 at a lower angle to penetrate the lower buds during flower

growweedeasy has great information, even a page for starters to give the essentials for indoor growing.

Youtube growers are also good (mr grow it, mr cannuks grow, pigeons 420)

This is a cheap simple essentials build.

1. 5 gallon fabric pot (amazon)
2. soil (ocean forest by fox farm, local nursery/garden center) just don't get miracle grow
3. Grow light (bp1000 led. amazon)
4. Seeds (seedsman or north atlantic seed company)
5. Nutrients (Advanced Nutrients Bloom, Micro & Grow, Pack of 3, 1 L Each, Amazon) Do not overfeed nutrients. Taking 10x vitamins a day doesn't make people grow faster or bigger, same with plants.

Optional extras: These mainly keep it private and help to deal with smell.

1. Grow tent
2. exhaust filter
