Do you even realize how stupid you sound saying that?? Created to scam ppl?? NASA uses LED technology for horticulture...do you really think that they care about running scams on ppl?? Learn something before you post...lol...remember...Idiots don't learn..they just speak out of turn..lol..thats what im saying dude.. LEDs are something some guy created to scam ppl like u guys! The of the growing community.. Us who like nice will stick with out HIDs..
U have made personal attacks on just about every poster in this thread.

wow i didnt relize hps guys were so... no nevermind done arguing u use what u want i will use the best
why u hear hating on led but over on another thread all intrested and shit whats up?
I think the reason why you and others hate LEDs so much is because they are so expensive. That is understandable...It's not easy to support something when you don't have the money to buy it..and I agree they are SUPER expensive..
HID = cheap and effective
LED = expensive and effective
Of course people will take cheap and effective over expensive and effective any day.
But the reason I like LEDs is..
1.) because they use a lot less heat than HIDs...which means if you have a grow tent..you will spend at least an extra 300 to 400 dollars on exhaust fans in order to keep the temps down to a reasonable level..
Fans are still needed with LEDs because plants need ventilation and air flow. But I can meet those needs with a much cheaper fan. With HID, you will almost always need a powerful and expensive fan that moves a lot of air just to keep the tent cooled
Meaning, you don't just spend money on the HID system..you need to buy another expensive exhaust system just cool the damn thing down..EXTRA MONEY..
2.) LEDs use a lot less electricity than HIDs....again..EXTRA MONEY...for some people...having a high electric bill can cause other problems..add the exhaust system on and that electric bill can jump quite a bit..lol..A 600 watt HPS alone can cost an extra 30 to 40 dollars a month not including the exhaust to keep it cool..depending on the type of grow...
growing auto flowers means leaving the lights on for longer periods throughout the day..
3.) LEDs last longer than HIDs which is also a bonus...EXTRA MONEY on bulbs every year..lol..again depending on how much you grow, an HID will need to be replaced at least once a year if not more..
4.) Since LEDs give off less heat they can be hung closer to the plant. Since height is sometimes an issue, being able to hang lights closer to the plants gives extra added room without having to buy a taller Grow tent (if that's what you use)...again...EXTRA MONEY..for the extra grow space..
Now can you give me some reasons that HIDs are better?? I have given my reasons for LEDs..lets hear yours for HIDs...
We don't need to explain anything, the bud pictures do all the talking.Now can you give me some reasons that HIDs are better?? I have given my reasons for LEDs..lets hear yours for HIDs...
