LEDs are still pretty impractical... you can build your own LED array cheaply, but it would require MANY hours with a glue gun/ soldering iron

you can buy ledgrowlights, but they are still too expensive to be worth it

IMO, stick with HID lighting or spectrally corrected flouro lights... look at the spectral distribution graphs on the different bulbs available at your local pet shop.. you will be impressed

right now i am using one standard warm white cfl, 2 hagen aqua glo tubes, one zoomed ocean sun tube, and one exo-terra 8% UV-B tube
mightymarijuanabuds Reviewed by mightymarijuanabuds on . High Intensity LEDs I'm new to growing, i've got 2 plants right now, and am growing them under cool white fluorescent tubes...i kno that for max growth you need mostly blue and some red wavelengths of light, so i thought of LEDs...after doing some research, i've found that this technique will work, however the LEDs must be HIGH INTENSITY, not just your average LED...is there anyone out there that can help me in my search for the damn things? or maybe something similar? as of yet i've had no luck locating Rating: 5
