Looking for an LED for a veg closet.
Looking to keep clones for a month then switching to my flower room.
Is this ideal to get the job done. Thinking of putting in a closet of small room.
$32 I was about to hop on it

that panel is only 15 watts, seems a bit weak....you could buy a few 9 watt LED bulbs for less money

they work more or less the same as CFL bulbs, but run cooler

I'm using LED bulbs in my current grow

i would rate them above cfl's because their light is directional instead of directing light everywhere. However, az2000 did some research on them and most of them are more efficient with reflectors.

if you look around you can find his information and tests on some popular brands.
