sheist: Would that actually convert all the wavelengths of light being emitted to the red part of the spectrum? I'm not so sure about that. I think what happens is that being a filter it only allows the red light to pass through, thus eliminating the rest of the spectrum emitted. Actually I am pretty sure that is how it works.

ledgrower: Can you tell me what the dimensions on the grow bar? I couldn't find that info anywhere on the site. Also, does the new grow bar have more led's or is there something else different about it? Would you mind posting the information contained in the pending Patent? The site is lacking in specifics about the products. It would be nice to see a specs page with for one thing growth comparisons between LED, HID, Flouro, and Sunlight (that would actually be pretty cool to see that up there.) The results vs Sunlight would blow the LED's away (as per some experiment I read recently sorry no link,) but the results vs. other types of lighting would do a lot to get indoor growers excited about using this new application for this technology. What is your position at SolarOasis?

As for not being able to figure out how it is done... I'm sure you know that ALL details of a process must be in the patent application. The point of the patent is to protect (for a period of years) the investment of the inventor so that he/she/it may recoup and profit from an idea while allowing for technological progress to occur. At the time of issuance of the patent the information on exactly how to reproduce the technology (sans design specifics which are usually covered by a trademark or design patent) become public knowledge and free to acquire. It is still illegal for the public to reproduce the technology until expiration of the patent but at that time all someone needs is the patent contents and suitable technical knowledge to duplicate the technology/ies.

Secret formulas are another issue not covered by patents as patents are public information. Secret formulas must be kept secret. As far as I know you can't patent a recipe anyway.


If anyone that have been reading this has any knowledge of cannabis specific wavelength responses it would be awesome to see them up here. I'm pretty sure that all the wavelengths mentioned so far while being usable with cannabis were tested on other plants. Since all plants have different specific requirements that information would be very useful to thouse seeking to implement this technology with the growth of cannabis (in spain :dance:f course.)
FERMENTATION Reviewed by FERMENTATION on . LED grow lights... input please. Hello guys, I'm exchanging eMails with a representative from a LED company. I asked him if they could produce a custom light for growing, and here's what he told me: Our options are as follow: 940nm, 850nm, 660nm, 630nm, 610nm, 590nm 570nm, 530nm, 510nm, 470nm, 460nm, 400nm and a total of 64 LEDs in the bulb.
