Full Spectrum LED grow lights

[sfhaze]

Hey all,

LED grow lights are really heating up.

I started a couple of years ago with spots and awful plantbars and then the lightblaze. They didn't grow well and couldn't grow seedlings at all. These products used just red and blue LEDs. Later, people started adding orange and other wavelengths but it still didn't really work right. Many people got burned by poor results and now LEDS grow lights are considered crap by most people.

Today, there are several products with a full spectrum. This to me means they have at least red, blue and white. I can confirm that this fixes a lot of issues and the prices also keep falling. HPSs day's may be numbered if some of these new products really perform.

The ones I know of are:

Haight Solid State
Hydrogrow
Lumigrow

There have been some challenges to compare results, side by side. As a start, I encourage anyone who has used any of these products to post some bud and plant shots. Anyone doing side by sides should start a journal and tell us about it.


Here is a bud shot from my little cabinet grow with the 400 model from Haight Solid State to start things off.

Here are some of my personal plants grown under 126W lights. The oldest plant in the garden still has about 3 more weeks to go (maybe even a little longer).

I'll post pics here in a few days when I have more time. Enjoy.

By the way Eyes, this forum is a very friendly place to post grow journals as well. A lot of nice people here, and mods who love to keep the peace.
