My unsolicited advice?

Look for high-power emitters.
1. and 2W. leds are a bad choice for blooming.
(For reasons see "penetration misunderstood" on the IC.)
So, avoid Hydro-grow, UFOs, etc.
StraightouttaWeed is using lights with 3W. emitters that are blooming up a storm.
I have yet to see any commercial lamp hold a candela to my homebrew 15W 660s. but his come close.

Weeze, out.
I'm no techy like weez....I have a hard enough time setting my timer correctly! :jointsmile:

But I do want to answer Charbuds question....I am using the WEX 150w LED. I have 2 of them in there now for flowering since I am doing 10 plants this time. With 2 lights I can do up to 16 plants no problem. Stra8 did help me out with purchasing and he is very knowledgeable when it comes to LED's. They cost $450 each which i don't think is alot considering what they can do and price comparing them with HPS. My closet has been staying at a good temp WITHOUT the use of A/C and my power bill has dropped immensely! So those are all things to take into consideration also. Anyways, feel free to hit me up on yahoo IM if you want to chat about it. I will also try to update my log as often as possible for those of you trying to learn from others! :jointsmile:
