Loving the pics

Really interesting, good luck!

I had a thought, and feel free to correct me if I am wrong, or if this is just inappropriate to the forum. Grow testing, does it really have to be done with weed, I mean it time consuming, you want a great yield, you might be pissed off if it doesn't work etc. Here’s a simple idea, you want to...

Hi guys it’s been a while, The typical wave lengths are +/-5nm for 5mm and +/-10nm for high power, if this is not what you are finding then the LEDs were not sorted properly and the source maybe suspect. Also High power is not the only way to go, the heat issues with High power are the...

Aside from the fact that saving electricity is not optional today, the view point of racefan (I don't mean to be harsh) is irresponsible at best, you just can't justify using 1000W of power to grow a plant thats marginally better than one grown using a quarter of that power. The main problems...

For sure man, wavelenght, angle, brightness, its a danger laden path for the uninitiated. That said get eh correct colour (wavelenght) and as bright as absolutley possible and you cant got to far wrong. PS was just looking at your 'poor mans grow' that kicks ass, just goes to show that an...

Yeah looking at the datasheet for: LUMEX -SML-LX1110SOC-ATR HIGH InGaAIP Orange/Red 620nm Clear 2.5 Axial intesnisty:25000 90 degree angle, its not very good! It's a 1W power LED, but only has 15lm, red can easily be at least 35lm, and the viewing angle of 180deg, although not really needed...

Re: High Pressure Metal Halide.. Is this for real? Someone was talking about the CRI before, its not important for grow lights, as CRI refers to how well the light source maintains the original colour of the things that its lighting. So if your plant looks really green or slightly purple under...

New HID LED, 50% more efficient than your HID lamp follow the link for a tutorial posted by420stallion on UV importance.

Question for OCG247. The picture yo0u posted, is your set up? I'm interested, how many watts your running and how many plants? Also why have you mixed the red and blue LEDs rather than opting for purely red or blue for the veg and flowering? Have you added any other lights, or is it only...

ReactiveLama, all I can tell you is around 60-80W of LED's should be able to replace the 400W HPS and your electricity saving will be a least 70% on that bulb, not to mention there's no need for a cooling solution. You can figure out the cost of the electricity easily enough, however set up...

Yeah, I have just watched that video you are talking about Boss, thats a bad ass HID light. Also that large picture of the purple LED you have posted is awesome, close and clear, I did edit a vrsion for you but i cant seem to post pictures :( with this reply. Smokin Moose told me how to do...
