Hey guys,
Im looking at picking up some LED lighting and want to know if this will be sufficient lighting for 2-3 plants using lst.
Hydroponic LED Grow Light Growlight 240V (2 PANELS) - eBay, Seed Starting, Grow Lights, Gardening, Lawn Care, Home. (end time 27-Mar-08 18:10:23 AEDST) (http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Hydroponic-LED-Grow-Light-Growlight-240V-2-PANELS_W0QQitemZ110234447964QQihZ001QQcategoryZ435 54QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem)
Also would it be better to use from above or as side lighting.
Thankyou

14 watts of LED with 2X efficiency compared to MH = 28 watts worth
I've never grown, but I can tell you that 28 watts is not much. I have 55 watts on my 10 gal aquarium.

If you read the forums that you are posting in, you will see that this topic has been covered by many people.
RECENTLY
So to void you from wasting your money, DONT BUY THE CHINESE LED LIGHTS.
If you REALLY want to grow with LED's grow with the Pyrocon 100's or whatever.
READ THE FORUMS!!!

Hey darbolah,
well, I'll tell give you two threads to look into:
http://boards.cannabis.com/grow-log/149145-led-grow-1st-grow-56w-max-northern-lights.html
and
http://boards.cannabis.com/grow-log/147698-led-growing-instructional-grow-log.html
those panels youre looking at, we refer to as china panels (guess why?). i got one early on, tried to use it to separate a male but it barely kept the top 4" alive after 4 days. thats after fixing the broken wires inside...lol
Thanks for your interest and hope to see your LED results sometime in the future,
