Hi
this is my first attempt so i will require the help you lot can offer me here.
thanks to the members of cannabis.com for all the info and the inspraition to D.I.Y :rastasmoke:

OK
please remember ive no idea what im doing lol
help me out guys

heres some info on the starter light i have dont know if its ang good.

any advice from experienced led growers would be greatly appreciated.

ive trawled threw this fourm and i still have 1 question unansered?

has anyone suscessfully grown with led and smoked it?
please let me know any good fourms or results ive missed.

my starter light is
Mixed Colour innovative LED Grow Light String...80 LED's emitting light in the Blue and Red 465nm 625-660nm ranges of the visible spectrum make up this LED Grow Light.

Configuration:

1 meter length
10 drop strings
2 clusters of FOUR LED's per drop - total LED's 80.

Cluster Spectrum:

2 x 660nm RED (flowering)
1 x 625nm RED (growth)
1 x 465nm Blue (early growth, plant orientation).

Stemlights have been created because of the inherant problems with fixed-type LED or normal grow lamps - you can only arrange and aim them in very limited configurations.

Use Stemlights by arranging them along the stem and branches of your plants as they grow - look for leaves which are hidden from the main light source because of the canopy growth above it, and arrange a cluster so its light falls on as many of these leaves as possible.

any input would be great guys
also im having probs with attachments here

Indeed...

I have no cred here, but I just want to say up-front that it was after reading all three of his grow logs I that I had the courage to start growing LED even though I have some HIDs in storage.

Thanks Snstealth, Big Time! :thumbsup:

Merry :hippy:

you wanna get all of those plants out of the same pot. they are gonna get their roots intertwined and fight for nutrients. some will do okay, but some won't. not to mention you won't be able to transplant them easily (if at all) once they roots get intertwined.
