LED grow lights... input please.

Fuck, you are really a ppromoter ;-)

Well, I'm using only 10 Luxeons (forget the additionally High-Power LED's), and my plant is raising extremly! I don't need eight bars (and I don't have space for them), and I've paid only 60$ for my Luxeons.
And I know the SolarOasis-Growing-Thread, and if I compare the pictures (OK I know, the plants are in a different growing stadium), I really believe that my results could be better. But currenly I'm looking for comments or a solution for my climate problems!

my plant today. It isn't growing faster, but it is growing (light on time: 4,7%)!
I will increase the light on time and the frequency!

I'm thinking about picking up some LEDS what would be appropriate for something bout 10'x'10 room?

[roadrunner]

Use Blue and Red Luxeon's!
Attached you will find an actual image where you can see what they did with my plant ;-)

Guess I have to keep my posts PG here. Got all deleted. Damn censorship. Anyhow, these pics out of sequence and are a week older than the ones i posted before it. I have started training the plants by tying them down. I will post some picks of that soon. Macro lens comin in the mail.

Most of these grows are done with 100 watts or less. Speaking of which, I wanna see a grow that matches the wattage of these other lights. Any growers out there with deep pockets that wanna contribute something back to the growing industry? Use the same amount of plants in a plot and compare a 1000 watt HPS with 1000 watts of red and blue. Since blue isn't up to spec maybe 800 watts of red LED + 200 watts of blue CFLs, or whatever ratio is optimal. Maybe 200 watts is more then the plants can absorb, maybe it's not. I don't know. A small amount of UV in there as well. Not to much though, and not focused in one area.

apologize if already noted (no time 2b thorough) but an excellent thread (some 50 pages long) exists on uk420 that chronicles a full blown led grow with 23watts. amazing. good luck. some of y'all (turtle) are REALLY informed about led's, eh?

hi i think this led thing is great and want to give it a try.

i heard the recommendations were luxeon's but noticed
there were few types.
any recommendations?

and about pulsing. i hear pulsing increases the growth.
is there a simple way to pulse the lights?
i'm not really good with this high tech science gadget...
