Hey guys Im sorry if im posting this in the wrong place.
Im looking for a LED light for my grow room. Its about a 3x4x6 grow tent.
I have a 400W HPS in there now with a hood but its getting way too hot. With summer coming I cant have those tempatures what is a good cheap place to grab an LED light for that space?
Im looking at a 300W Full Spectrum 9Band LED Grow Light IR Veg Flower Hydroponic Panel for $139
Does that sound like something I should be looking at?
Let me know.
Thanks!

There is no such thing as cheap LED. Even more reasonable best bang for your buck units like the area 51 and rapid LED onyx are $450-550 each.

that's not entirely true - Cree soft white bulbs from home depot (about $10 each) do really well.

Cheapest you are going to find, and a great light BTW, is this one.

And yes, its for sale. I upgraded. $200 plus shipping. 85 watts actual. good for 2-3 smaller plants.
Perfect replacement for a small closet floro grow etc. I bought two last year for eval and they are great. PM me for more info.

The cheapest light you can buy is often the expensive one, because it is unlikely that you will get your money's worth. Not only will it fail MUCH sooner than you hope, it will do so at the worst possible time in your grow when you can't afford to replace it.

Considering the 3 x4 footprint you would need 2 A 51. I'm getting a Spyder 600 covers 4 x 4 $1000 www.bmlhorticulthttp://www.bmlhorticulture.com/ure.com
