i would love to see some pics of LED grows that started and like 20 days later pics
Everytime i see threads on led you see some pic then you never see any updates ????? so one begins to question

as well i like to note that everyone seems dead on saying that LED doesnt produce heat i for one know that temp are also need for healthy growing plants

i have seen lots of nice small plants grown with leds , they have come on along way in the last few years, and are ideal for hipsters who want the latest trend,
LEDS do have some practical applications for small grows where heat is a problem although cfl T5 and aircool or water cooled hps could also be used when heat is an issue
still they are no match for HID's and all serious growers know this :)
if you like spending money and want something to show off about, grab yourself an led panel today!

peace :)

I use custom made lights from www.plantphotonics.com I have 280 watts actual draw and last grow(my first ever) i got 1.3g per watt and my cab was only just over half full. Im using bubble buckets at the moment but im so happy with these lights that im going organic after this current lot are done:)

These lights are expensive but amazing!!

LED cons are interesting on this site also, well worth a look. Richard is a good guy and is only interested in making the very best light available.

LMFAO! Stay away from LED's!!!!! Should be stay away from cheap ass LED's! Not all LED's suck. If you think so then your a close minded fool!! I've only used LED in my one year of growing and have had nothing but killa results!! My light wasn't cheap but it has definitely paid for itself in the last year!! A little over 6 oz. from my last harvest. Which was 2 Ultimate plants. LMFAO @ stay away from LED's!!!!! What a joke! I have a 270W Enhanced Spectrum Supernova LED. Here's what my LED produced last harvest! Yeah stay away from LED's you might end up with plants like this!

Thanks Curly! Yeah I'm very happy with the Supernova! I've been accepted into a grower feedback program so I'll be testing out a new LED light. It's supposed to be the shit! They are gonna send it to me once I complete my current grow! Oh yeah I grow in coco and use Canna Coco a&b, rhizotonic, Cannazyme, and Atami Bloombastic. Thanks for the props!

    Hey Chronicdoom, I have two supernova LEDS and am very pleased with them as well. The LED buds actually tend to be more compact than when I run a HPS side by side. Two things I think could be improved would be to get a longer cord for the ballast, it is only about eight feet from my light and the other is the unit is a little heavey as well(freezes my light rail). I bought mine four years ago so maybe it has been improved since then. Also, I noticed if you have the flowers to close to the light the tips tend to get bleached white, and this happened to multiple strains. I had 4 plants(female seeds c99/ from seed not clone) in 3 gal pots in a two by four tent and yielded 5 ounces of tight compact buds. All in all Im pleased. 1I run them in the hot months to reduce temps and they kick ass. 140gs/270wt= .51 g/wt= success in most peoples books.

    And yes, Ive tried cheap LEDS and they blow.

    What is your max canopy/footprint for your supernova?
