Do your homework. First assignment, read these posts:
Cannabis.com posts related to LED lighting
Second assignment: Read some more.
Then ask questions.
I don't mean to be rude or harsh. This subject has been well covered. People here will help but you have to do some learning before you ask for assistance.
Man the more I read about led lighting the more confused i am,can somebody just tell me agood company and a good led light that someone has had success with?
Im using 120w led, rectangular shape, Led Grow Supply - Home think there in denver
Im in e 4th week of flowering and the plants under my led are look GREAT, plants under gps 400w also look GREAT, ones under led seemed to flower quicker and more bushy. Im first timer so haven't seen results yet but lookin great and budding very nicely. Good luck
Well you've seen the results of my panels.
I just got 2-120w LEDs off of ebay for $165 each and they look awesome. I am going to use the LEDs for veg then add a 1000w HPS for blooming on 6 Big Bud Plants in soil in a sealed room.
welthink makes the best commercial LED lights on the market....i challenge anyone to post a better all LED grow with a commercial light than the one in my signature....other than Weezard...and he made his :jointsmile:
i doubt anyone can find a LED light that is rated to be hung at 13 ft above the plants by the manufacturer :smokin:
ebay beware~ 1w diodes and 630nm on the top end reds and 120 degree angle.....660nm diodes are the most expensive...which is why you see big price differences in those light brite models:hippy:
I sold my LED panels and went to induction grow lights. Ck out youtube and you can see videos of grows under these lamps. They offer over 90% usable PAR light and the plant yields have been comparable to HID because the canopy penetration is better then my LED lamps had ever been. plus they were less expensive then the LED panels I'd bought. :rastasmoke:Quote:

Also, I have yet to see any induction grow top the typical GPW barrier. I've seen LED top it all day long.
