Some manufacturers are moving towards panels with lots of white LED's. Who knows if this is a phase or a trend.
We've converted most of our household lighting to LED. I started with GU10's and MR16's but I think the best route is to use basic track systems with PAR 20 reflector-type bulbs. The bulbs come in a few different wavelengths, from "warm" to "cool".
These bulbs are much less expensive, and much brighter, than they were just a coupla years ago. Is there any use for them in a grow room? I thought it might be a cheap way to test the theory that plants actually want a bit more of the spectra that are not included with your standard red/blue grow panels.
Probably a dopey idea. I haven't seen anyone using them in a grow journal.
