A problem with that is that cannabis points its leafs towards the light.
But may be a multiple layer light might be an idea. Only 15% of light penetrates through the top layer, no matter what kind of light you use.
If the leds don't get too warm, you can give most of the plants the max amount of photons.
Now, which leds are the coolest :rasta:
I cleared out about all the sucker leaves down inside and around the girl, and she likes it quite well....even though,I can see the possibilities of having LEDs close to the bottom branches, as Bubbleblower stated "max amounts of photons.:thumbsup:
I was thinking adjustable at least...for me, growing out of buckets, something that clips on the rim and I can raise as needed, maybe a few "T" bars with a half dozen or so(whatever is effective) LEDs embedded in them.Quote:

Hi ayhoung,
The absorption spectrum of cannabis with comparison charts and discussion at the following link. This may provide your R&D people a reference point to design a grow light for our "specific" needs:
High Times > Light and the LED Zeppelin: Will LEDâ??s Sink or Soar in the Growroom?
Also, our site had my mind reeling with possibilities that in the not too distant future your company will develop the perfect product line for us.

Good luck. :thumbsup:
i just tie my little ladies down.as soon as i finish veggie stage i take a piece of yarn and make a small hole in the side of my containers,run the yarn around second top most set of leaves and lay them down horizontally.i still clear at least the bottom 2 sets of leaves and a waterleaf here and there.talk about bushin out,HOLY COW!:rasta:
cityokie:thumbsup:
Ive developed a 150 300 and 600 watt led grow light with a full spectrum including 440nm and 420nm and more. You should hit me up.
Sorry brotha's but its been done..
growledhydro.com made the perfect led grow light.
Check out these links to documented grows going on with these led grow light panels:

360w LED Perpetual SOG sponsored by growledhydro.com, Pineapple Express and Gigabud. - 420 Magazine
I saw this DIY LED grow light setup made with christmas lights. Wonder if it works good?

There are only 5 particular wavelengths that should be paid attention to, at least according to my research, and in reality only three of those really need to be the primary ones.Quote:

The two in the custom multi-site bucket in the back right will be transplanted into an old PC case that I have completely sealed except for airflow (no carbon filter, legal patient, no need to worry, even the management knows,) and lined with Chromalux paper (Too lazy to futz with foil or mylar, just cut this stuff and glue it in, done, hardly a crease, just a few bumps.) I'll be putting in a 60:40 red:blue tri-band panel in the top of the PC case. The two in the black professional buckets are going to become mothers. The white Krusty bucket will be vegging constantly for a while, trained, and eventually put under a 120w panel of the same configuration. I've got two lines of lights - I have a vegetative purposed line (which has worked awesomely for all of my plants) in low wattages, and I have a bloom line in the higher wattage range. This is to help deliver even more efficiency.

Also, we haven't seen g/kWh or g/W numbers, yet, these are not finished grows. Until I see those, I'll have some reservations. I only have a couple of problems getting 1.5g/w in 12/12 from clone SoG with my admittedly absolutely-crappy 50:50 dual-band penetrator bar (high-focus lower power LEDs for deeper penetration, not for area coverage) but I have managed to do it and the bar is only 16W.
thanks my friend!:jointsmile:Quote:
