Ive heard they are real good for vegging and stops stretching as you can get the light closer = more penetration. I like that word "penetration". Word of the day

yo check out the spectras man you wont be dissapointed that you at least looked , they run 3w chips 290w of true power they use red blue, amber , green , if , and uv diodes , |IMO companies fucked up when they said they closed in on certain spectrums that grow more ( red and blue) you need more than that or you will loose yield :) growledhydro.com his site is outdated but he will be gettin a new one soon .... apparently :)

cheers lads, she's getting water at the moment but seems to have gone into a, "can't be arsed to finish stage". It's a strain gifted to me from an old RIU'er called Integra21 (I recommend you find his threads and drool over his scrog's). He done the cross so I am not sure what the expected flower time is. Very happy with it and seems like a great one for 12/12, quite robust and vigourous for a kush strain, without a massive stretch as well. Would be great for SOG too.

To be honest curly I do sales for a living and I would say Im rather sucessful. So when I contacted the guy, my words were "you can't bullshit a bullshitter". He explained it real easy. He was honest and said u don't get the big colas u get with HPS but you do get more side branches with better colas. He said you get better light spread. All sounds good in theory but will need to put into practise

Nice link Kev. I was also told they drink less because there is less heat from the LED's. Just need to secure the property before I start

I dont know what its like down ur way del but pakis up here hate us and love screwing u over. Just dont want u done m8. Robbie they are a bit pricey but the 900w units Im going for, coz Im getting 6 is 500 a piece. They cover 2.4m sqrd. No heat sig. Better penetration and uses about 600w of power. Ill be getting them in about 4-6 weeks. So if anyone wants. I could put it on my order and c if we could get cheaper

yo del666 dont wanna throw ya off but i tend to tell people to stay away from ufo style led's i have heard soooooo much flack on them man , never heard of this company but they dont seem to give very good info on their product including what kind of diodes there using or even exact power/ light output nor the spectrums of light they use..... most companies provide this , if your gonna buy an led i suggest you go check out my" led growing is the way of the future" thread or the "led users unite" thread tons of good stuff on their.

my top 3 led companies ..... just my opinion

1. growledhydro- own one and love it :)

2.blackstar led - have seen many grows done with tem with pretty good results affordable too :)

3.advanced led - havent heard to much but seen some testimonials
