Default Time to fix the led grow light

Now that my plants are outside, it's time to replace the burned out LEDs in the grow lamp. I usually need to fix 5 to 8 pieces a season. The lamp company doesn't offer replacement parts but eBay has similar parts at a good price.

If you look close you can see the bad ones.

I was wondering how you kept those plants looking so well this winter.

Thanks This 300w light is all I use for small plants in a 4'x4' space. I run the light 10-12 hours daily over the winter in my basement.

After 5 years now, this light would probably be half as bright if I didn't replace the burned out LEDs each year!

Erik,
Have you gotten your winter setup up and running?

Default Re: Time to fix the led grow light

I ordered the lamps on eBay. The quality is questionable; two out of five stopped working a week after ordering. I got very upset about this and canceled my second order with these lamps. Later, I read feedback from people who received their orders; many complained that they looked unreliable. Now I prefer to order from local stores that give a guarantee on their product. On the advice of a friend, I ordered LED lights for grow tents to try out, and if everything is as he described, I will buy bulbs for the whole tent.
