- I'm really excited to get the new ViparSpectra XS1000 LED grow light. The PAR values show that it will be best for houseplants, seedlings, and cuttings, when hung higher up in a large grow tent. This light is perfect for growers like us because it uses a full light spectrum, using quality components, and consumes only 120 watts. I'm definitely looking forward to growing some of our houseplants and seedlings with this grow light!

Been watching your videos for about 6 month now, learned so much. I enjoy your enthusiasm.
Thanks for watching, Kevin! Glad you're learning a lot from them. Have an awesome spring man!
Just recently found your channel and love all the plant cutting information. Based on watching a lot of light videos (and this video too) I picked up the XS1500 this week because it had an Amazon coupon making it about the same $ as the XS1000. It just arrived and the construction is top notch. Thanks for the review.
Hey, no problem! Thanks for the comment. Yeah, these are great lights and I'm still loving them. Definitely a fan of ViparSpectra.
That's cool those light are awesome! It's almost time to start seeds here! All my cuttings the buds are swelling on them so far. I can't wait to see everything growing this year. Thanks for sharing Mike 👍 have a blessed day!
I hear ya man, my rhododendron buds are all starting to swell and some of them are opening already. Love this time of year. Yeah, the light is awesome and I'll have to do more videos with them soon.
Thanks for the video and information! Time to start those house plant cuttings!
For sure!
Great presentation, Mike! Thanks!
Thanks, I liked those numbers in the 3x3 tent. Giving me all kinds of ideas!
I HAVE SO MUCH FUN WATCHING ALL KINDS OF YOUR PLANTING TECHENIQUE .. YOU ARE AWESOME GENUISE MIKE .. THANKS FOR SHARING AND INSPIRING ME TO WATCHED MORE VIDEOS .. IT GIVES ME MUCH KNOWLEDGE TO LEARN MORE ABOUT PLANTINGS .. GOD BLESS AND YOUR FAMILY .. CHEERS
Glad you're having fun watching the videos and learning from them, Donna!
Hello Mike nice to see you, blessing to you and your family
Thanks so much! Same to you, Silbia.
I bought one of the bigger lights from them and have it in a good grow tent like you have I think viasun and my citrus love it in there and are fruiting and putting out vegetative growth all winter
That's so awesome Jay! I love these lights and have had nothing but great results from them for almost a year now.
Thanks for the info, great video!
Thanks Teresa! Glad you enjoyed it.
Lol I want to see a video of this light in a room. Next year I want to change up my seed area and get more serious into this. This was a really good video!!
Thanks Kristen! I want to see it too, lol. I'll have to do a video about it and maybe slow down a little next time, haha.
thanks for the great light info..
You bet
I wished I saw this video earlier. I bought 4 LED lights 4 feet long to fit in my metal shelving. I thought I need need more watts to grow seeds and house plants. What I fought out very quickly was it to much light and there is no light controller. Defiantly a learning curve with growing lights.
Yes, it's easy to have too much light for houseplants and seedling. Doesn't take much. At least now you have tons of light. Spread them out over a larger area and have much more room to grow.
Usually watch youre stuff for out door plants. But thats a mighty fine looking light. My first indoor garden was undrr a small 150w hps. So i know what you could do under that and the one yoire showing is probablyeven better. That 27x27 tent would work great.i had just a tad over 3sqft
Yeah, I'm excited to see how this thing works in the small tent. So far, it's a great light.
Very very very very very very good
Many many thanks
Nice sharing,stay connected.
Great video!
Thanks! I think I got a little off track on this one. New what I wanted to do but I was all over the place, lol. I need to kind of "redo" this to get my point across better. In the end, it doesn't matter what company you go with, these low watt and full spectrum LEDs are perfect for hanging high up in a large tent and growing all the things I mentioned here. The more I think about it, I would love to buy an 8' x 4' grow tent and hang 2 of these lights in it. One for each 4x4 section. I'd have more than enough light to grow a massive amount of plants, with quality full spectrum light, and at very low wattage. Now I just have to convince my wife that we need a 4 x 8 grow tent in the living room, lol.
@@MikeKincaid79 I think you did fine, you did what a lot of us do and you shared the results. You got your information across well, did it with a great attitude, encouraging words and showing you are human. Perfection is an illusion used to make us feel we are not good enough. It is a trap we have a choice to be locked into. I felt it showed me that if I don't think the light is as bright as it should be, make sure it is at full brightness.
I bought 2 of the xs1500s for my my 4x4 indoor tomatoe grow.
I love these lights!
Thanks for the valuable information!
I love seeing someone get as excited as I do about plants and flower. It brings back memories of my Gpa breaking pieces of plants off and showing me how to make more.
I have an important Question.
How much more $$ should I expect to see on my electric bill running these for the month?
Depends on the wattage but 100 watts will generally run about 5 bucks a month.
Thanks, Is that small light on this video 100watts ?
I knew I have met you on the yard where you tried to sell me that georgeous Trabant for my holiday trips.... No offence but you really hit that enthusiasm pedal today 🤣
I was a little over the top, wasn't I, haha.
@@MikeKincaid79; No dude, You remind me of myself. I have to tell my self not every is that excited about gardening, then I come across your good energy,
I've been told I can't grow daylilies from seed to flower indoors. I don't believe that. I'm only going to grow 30 plants at the most. Questions: 1. Is there much heat with these lights? 2. Is there anything I can use other than an expensive tent like you have to contain the light? 3. How many lights do you think I'd need to light up and entire 10' X 10' room! Thanks for your video on the subect. Jeff
Hi Mike! So cool, exicited about this! Thanks! What happened to Henry? The chickens gained up on him?😅 Have a gret week! Hugs🤗💜🤗
Haha, it's not every day you hear the hens and not Henry!
Is that how it works?
Hi Mike, For propagating rose cuttings indoor during winter, which grow light would be appropriate?
Honestly, I wouldn't get too crazy with it or spend a lot of money. The best bang for your buck is simple fluorescent bulbs that are just a few inches above the plant or cuttings. I like to use T8 bulbs that have daylight Kelvin rating, like around 5000 Kelvin. I leave them on for at least 14 hours a day but you can go all the way up to 24 hours per day on. If you've got a little extra money and want a flashy setup, then the light in this video has been fun to work with and does a great job.
@@MikeKincaid79 Thank you so much! ❤️
Hi Mike, do you need to have a grow tent in order to use this? And if I'm just doing seedlings what height should I be hanging the light if I don't have a tent? I'm super tempted to buy one but not sure if I'll have the space. Thanks again for a great video!
You don't need a tent but the tent will help concentrate the light more.
@@MikeKincaid79 thanks so much for the quick response! So I'm not going to grow tons of seedlings under a light this year but maybe next year I'd get a tent. I was curious since the price between the xs1000 and xs1500 isn't that much, should I just invest in the xs1500? I literally NEED you to tell me because I cannot make up my own mind and will end up not buying one 🤣
@@MikeKincaid79 I went with my gut and just ordered the xs1000 and used your promo code. Hope that helps you!
360 par and you're a heck of a golfer.
😂
Hey Mike, 👋😄 can u do a video with planting Diantuus cuttinge?....
I commented it on another vid but just reminding u💕
Thanks, I saw that and I'll write it down.
Thanks so much Mike💕
Can u also do a vid on planting Carnation cuttings if possible ?😊
MIKE, my question is if you pair this light with a heat lamp would it help the chickens lay more eggs in the dark of winter? hey dont laugh its all a big science experment any ways ust trying to keep busy is all, great video info!
LOL, Actually it would, haha
Hey mike, what is your thoughts on plant success revolution's "great white" microbes? Do you have any experience with them? Is it better than Mykos and Azos by xtreme gardening? 😯
Love the videos by the way and probably will grab the xs1000 for overwintering purposes 🤷♂️😎
I use great white and really enjoy it. Been thinking about trying recharge to simplify the process as it contains the food all in one.
No experience with either but I've read that they are beneficial. I love the potential of this light for growing houseplants and seedlings. Same PAR as my fluorescent but using less watts and a full spectrum, while covering the same space.
@@S_a_n22 interesting! I'll look into that one! 😎🤠
i need one for myself. surely i am not getting enough light. ha! cp.
I really like this light and loved seeing those numbers in the 3x3 tent. I'm thinking about buying a bigger tent for the bigger light and growing more indoor plants next winter.
@@MikeKincaid79- wow! you got the house plant zoomies mike. once ya got it, there's no stopping.
New and loving this channel! Only thing I’m not understanding/seeing on video is how and when to take the cuttings? Do you have a list of months to do what?
Not yet but I mention it throughout many of my videos. I go into great detail on this in my paid videos on the website.
Hi Mike, this is on sale now for 79.99 and your promo code can use on top of this
Awesome, thanks, I'll have to do an update on this light soon.
What would an electric bill be for that thing?
Really cheap. I did the math on it awhile back and this many watts is somewhere around $5 a month.
Thanks so much for the information Mike, it was hard to decide there is so much out there, I do care about the lumens. So what lumens do you want for Cannabis, reside in a legal state. (maybe you don't want to go there, that's fine).
I'd focus more on PAR for plant growth. Lumens are what the human eye sees but only represents a small portion of the light spectrum. So if you're going only by lumens then you may be missing much of the light that the plants need. PAR is a much better measure of light for plants. I don't mind going there, plants are plants!
Can I ask tho... do these make plants grow faster?
A plant will only grow as fast as it's genetics will allow but by providing optimal input, you get optimal output.
@@MikeKincaid79 thank you 😘
Hey Mike, I'm wondering if you could post the difference between par and lumens and watts?
Sure, I can do that.
20:37, ¿Dijiste "adiós"? intente hablar más en español. jejeje
Dije "adiós" jaja. Ojalá pudiera hablar más español, pero lo que sé es muy pequeño. Quizás debería practicar más.
Amazon won't have them in stock until April 24th.
I saw that. Definitely keep this light in mind if you want to grow some quality plants in a small space.
I ordered one yesterday with the expected late April delivery and just received a delivery Updated estimate of March 26th!!
If U need light for cuttings and seedlings only don't waste money on expensive lights. Just get some LED light bulbs and you are golden.
Generic LEDs will definitely do the same job as the fluorescent bulbs but at a lower wattage. The only problem with generic shop lights is that they don't have a full spectrum of light so the plants won't reach their full potential.
All i kept seeing was all that wiring that needed to be cleaned up and zip tied. You know me. And um,,,, Peppers man want to see Peppers.
Haha, I hear ya, it's a mess. I'm constantly trying different things out and moving these lights around. Need to be a little neater. Peppers are coming.
Come on I want to see the peppers .......
LOL, this is what happens when you mix videos
わ
本当に素敵な光です！
Mike: "We don't care how electricity works🤪!"
Wife: "Well....that explains the electrocution.🙄"
......then Mike starts in with Watts and Par and metering and I'm like "DUDE SPEAK ENGLISH!"
LOL, I tried so hard not to go there, haha
Grow some weed
