OHHH Ok I just reread that last post. I wasnt expecting them to even be able to light 1 sq foot :P I'm suprised they can.
I think one day we may all have LED growlights... but that day is at least 8 years away.

OpenDNSI don wanna piss on the parade here but....
LEDs are a long way off being really great for growing...
The LED panels and bulbs that are already on the market, will work for vegging, but are really only beneficial for 'extra' lighting..

Dont you guys rememeber that dude on here who did an LED grow?? Think he's doin another one right now...(Reckoned he was Russian mafia or something..lol)
Anyhoo, his results were suprisingly good, but still pretty shitty in comparison to even CFL grows.

I bought one of these 12" x 12" red/blue panels months back, they do work, but they still suck.
My buddy is a Lab technician at a local Aerospace Laboratory, and he did a spectral test on the unit..which proved it to be very weak in both useable red and blue light.
He estimated that they were just about powerful enough to veg at a slow to fair rate.
We saw results in that other guys grow, and we were all suprised that he actually got growth, but they still sucked.
Anyho my Lab guy has been testing LEDs since, and has yet to find ANY that he would "hand on heart" say were great.

LED is the way forward, and the sooner the better, as we all get some nice smoke for a coupla bucks....We're just not there yet.

If i can get him to print out the results etc i will post em on here...

Here's the link to that other guys grow...https://www.rollitup.org/indoor-growing/14441-50w-killer-setup-god-knows.

Kassidy, sorry this has nothing to do with LEDs but Commander Keen is the shiz-nit. I remember playing that game when I was a kid! You rock!
