I am interested in using leds that are already on the market and seeing how I can make them work for me. The plants that I have not screwed up seem fine with dense buds. All negative issues are resulting from operator error, not blue light.
I use a Vipar A300 that has quite a bit of blue in it and my only problem is the excessive leafy growth that comes with too much blue in the flowering room, especially with indicas.
Sometimes the output of the blues completely overpowers the other colors in a LED panel, creating a poor product that puts the grower at a disadvantage before they've even started growing. Plus the effects of blue light can be detrimental to many organisms/biological processes and plants can show environmental stress from excessive blue, so while I'm with you on operator error being chief reason number one, some growers can already be saddled with failure before they begin. Unless you want to argue they they should of known better to begin with, well ya got me there
. Good Luck and Happy Growing Terry.
Fuck yeah man, that's a Triangularis, isn't it?!
Until now I have just read what I have found online and tried to apply what sounded right. I am trying to learn by doing. Plus, I am an old guy and have been around for awhile.
I have always called it by it's common name, "clover plant". That may be it's text book name.

I remember reading an earlier post in it, and agreeing like 200% with your "You can read every post available, but you won't start learning until you make mistakes on your own. It is only then that you have to figure out what to do, or not to do, next time" Some of the best advice I've run across, on these forums. You hit the buds-eye 
Reading is nice. But just go DO IT!! Oh yeah, and have FUN!!
Thanks for the good words.Almost lost this thread.

Wattage and coverage don't always match up. The Chrome (9) would be fine in a square area that meets their spec, size wise. 2 smaller lights with similar combined wattage would be more flexible in some spaces. This applies to sq. ft. coverage as well as different ht. requirement that different phenotypes of the same strain may need.
I am glad you posted this. This illustrates my comment perfectly.
yes, it's for humidity, but I don't think it does much... No air stone in mine, just a gallon pitcher and a towel. CO is so stinking dry I ought to put a swamp cooler up in there somehow.
