Question High Times LED GROW LIGHT
I've been doing a lot or research on these LED lights and came across an article in HighTimes.

They did a side by side grow:
1-HPS next to LED
2-MS next to LED
3-CFL next to LED

Although the type of LED they used at the time was 2nd Generation LED Tech, they said that LED's take 1 week longer to flower but yield 12% more bud!

My question is Has anyone tried the 3rd Generation triple light spectrum (blue white, red ), or any LED 's?

I'm going off to investigate, but it might save me time if you could mention the LED lamp(s) they used. It, well, sorta makes a difference. Check out my setup.

Interesting that LED's work just as good as HID lights

What's silly about the UFO? The new Illuminator has blue/red and orange. Supposed to better than the last version. I am interested in LED tech, especially because it's low wattage/energy use and that it runs cool. I leave my place sometime for several days and don't like the thought of hot HID/MH lamps.
