Re: LED vs. HPS

t420

I agree growing outdoors is the best.

My advice? Use a 120 watt LED to veg your plants to 1 or 2 feet in a small grow tent before you put them out in the spring.

I bought a 120 watt tri-band LED for $420 with shipping so when you think about it it is well worth it. And they really don't produce heat, only pure beautiful light.

Only had it for 3 days now but I noticed immediate results from the CFL I had putting my Green beans and Tomato plants under the LED. Much healthier color. And contrary the plants have grown much faster under the LED after only 3 days then they were under the CFL's.

It's good to know before you buy though!
