First, I have only grown with LED's and CFL's. At this point I feel LED's are promising and have achieved reasonable results with them, BUT they have always been supplemented with CFL's during the grow. I have never grown a plant with LED only. I now have a magenta Kessil and plan to try an...

I myself have done a bit of business with Sean at Gotham and can vouch for their customer service and credibility. Have I ever had a problem? Yes, but it was usually fixed within a week. They are a good company and back their products well. I have no affiliation with them I'm just a happy...

I would recommend you definitely not buy cheap chinese lights from ebay, as they tend to blow their power supplys within the first year. Definitely buy from someone who will back the product and fix it when something goes wrong. I myself use Kessil's and will be trying Blackstars.

Blackstar's are a better value and still will grow bud!

You may have to rule out the Kessil's based on the height of your cabinet. For Kessils to work properly you need to keep them at least 8-12 inches from the top of the canopy or they'll bleach out the fan leaves. Good luck. PS I would get a Blackstar before a Prosource. Better value.

I've tried Seed Boutique (no issues), Attitude (one seed arrived smashed, which is surprising considering how it was shipped), and next will be sannie. Good luck.

Your good on both issues. The Blackstars are getting some good press. Good choice.

Check out Gotham Hydroponics for good affordable grow lights or Kessil's. Either will get the job done, but I still use supplemental CFL even though I use these LED's. Good luck!

Well that leaves me with two problems. The Kessils are at the very top of the cabinet, and besides providing light the CFL's also provide heat which is necessary to keep the plants warm enough. Viagro, what if I go back to the 2009 Lighthouse Hydro UFO, and save the Kessils for a 2X4 tent...

Ok guys, could someone please provide some evidence that Kessil's flower the best? I mean I'm even using them and can't believe these claims.

What's up with that is I'm not making an claims about LED's one way or the other, just that they're OK. What is it you feel I need to prove? That they aren't as great a claimed? I will finish this grow with the Kessil's as Viagro sugggests, but whatever the result it won't be accurate...

On week 6 now. How long is a "chance"?

Why not Viagro? Kind of hurts your credibility, no? I have grown with Lighthouse UV's and vegged with their 2010 - they did OK. Currently I have two plants in a cabinet with two Magenta Kessil's above them. Additionally there are two 200W CFL's, two 100W CFL's and three 45W Blue/Red LED...

I grow them in an Aerogarden using LED's and supplemental CFL's. I usually grow them out of curiosity.

Thought I'd share as to why, even though I have a tent and grow in coco, I also am always perpetually growing 1 plant in an aerogarden. Simply, its because I use the aerogarden for short autoflowers only. Aerogardens are particularly well suited for this purpose, especially if you have the...

Uhhh . . . what r u growing in?

Sounds more like u need a fan blowing on ur plants to me. I grow in a cabinet with CFL's and a 90watt UFO. The three fans in the UFO keep enough air moving that I haven't experienced this problem as of yet.

When i tried Dynagro I too had less than stellar bloom but an outstanding veg. I would veg with Dynagro and bloom with AN.

u need an airpump, airline and airstone (walmart). U also need more lighting. CFL's will work but are annoying to set up. I'd recommend LED. A good 90 or 180W UFO can handle an aerogarden.

Hmmm . . . funny. I'm trying Advanced after already trying Fox Farm (yeech!), Dynagrow (just OK), Techniflora (best so far but all plants turned out to be male), and now AN. First week of flowering, best looking plants so far. Using hobbyist pac and BMO Spt.
