LED Experiment

[Swagalotus]

Hey all,

I am planning to set up a cephalotus grow space using LEDs and I was wondering if the lights found here: http://www.htgsupply.com/Product-LED-Spotlight-Bulb-TriBand-Spectrum---ONE seem appropriate. If they do I will purchase them and place my cephalotus under them and let you know how they respond! Many thanks.

Hello, while I can't really answer your question myself, another member of this forum, RSS, actually responded to one of my threads with some links to some very valuable information that I think would help you out quite a lot (they set up a grow space for Cephalotus using LEDs for their lighting)

Some info from the CREE LEDs http://www.terraforums.com/forums/s...lotus-grow-space-would-love-input!?highlight=

Some more info from the CREE "moonlight" kits http://www.terraforums.com/forums/s...rm-LED-Experiment-with-a-few-Cephs?highlight=

Pretty much covered everything I know about LEDs, I'm still very happy with them.

I can't speak for their LED's but, their T5's are cheaply made and are of poor quality.

I still am going to do more research on LEDs and thanks for the advice Cthulhi138. If anybody has any other suggestion, they are more than welcome.
