All Budmaster lamps use a standard IEC power receptacle and will come with a corresponding 1.8m long
power cord for your region.

Hanging Your Lamp Safely
If you are growing plants in a grow tent then we suggest taking down the hanging bar from the tent and
threading it through the hangers and then hanging the light and bar as one, and remove any plants or
equipment from the hanging area:
I you are hanging your lamps in a room then ensure that your hanging gear is rated to take the weight of the
lamps plus an additional 20% to allow for any movement.
Important LED Growing Tips
LED is a superior way to grow but sometimes you may have to make some adjustments to your environment
and feeding regime to get the most out of your lamps:
1. Hang your lamps as stated in the hanging guide for your lamp to get the most effective use of the
lamp and ensure the plants don’t overdose on light. Do not be tempted to hang them too close as
you do when using HID as this is just a waste of energy.
2. Don’t Overwater. If you are not growing hydroponically then be careful not to overwater your plants
as when growing with led there is less radiant heat so less evaporation of nutrients.
3. Turn down the exhaust temperature setting on your fan controller as not as much heat is generated
with led so you need to ensure stale air is dumped.
4. Cold Roots = Small Fruits. Check your pots by placing your hands on them, if they are too cold to the
touch think about adding additional heat to your room. If you are struggling to keep your root zone
warm then switch to felt pots.
5. Additional Cal Mag. Plants grown under our led can take in a lot more nutrients and in some
instances demand much more Calcium and Magnesium so if you are in a rural area especially then it
is a good safeguard to have a bottle of Cal Mag on standby.

Hanging Distance
Our lamps are very powerful and designed to be kept at 1.8m+ distance from the ground. To get the right
amount of light to your plants at the right time consult the chart below.
Seedling Stage average light required = 50µmol/m2/s
Vegetative Stage average light required = 200 –400µmol/m2/s
Bloom Stage average light required = 800 –1000µmol/m2/s
Over 1000µmol/m2/s then add carbon dioxide to see a huge increase in yield.
So by consulting the chart below we can see that in bloom for best results the COB-X-9 should be around 18
inches from the plants canopy.
