LED lights on light movers.

Postby cain1 » Sat Mar 22, 2014 1:16 pm

Hi all,

This is my first post on the forum so hello all hope you are well. I am after a bit of info from any LED growers or people with LED light growing experience if possible please. I am wondering how well a LED light (solar storm 800-880) would work on a light mover, has anyone tried a light mover with LED lights. I am looking to cover a 3.7 feet x 6 feet area with 6 plants in a BOG style grow (SCROG altered a bit). I saw on the CWL site video it mentions a light mover can increase performance, but one of the people from CWL has said a light mover for LED is not recommended for flowering plants in his experience. Just wondering what people with any experience think. I am awaiting a reply from him as I have asked why he thinks this.


Thanks cain1.

Welcome to the forums!

Nobody here has done a comparison grow, with and without a light mover, but I don't think they're a substitute for proper lighting. A shape/size like yours should have 2 SS880s to have proper coverage and if you wanted to add a light mover on top of THAT, then you might see a small increase in yield. A light mover is not a magic tool that fixes not having enough light (w/sqft) for an area though.
