    Anyone interested in a group buy for LED grow lights?

    So far, he hasn't asked me to pay anything yet, he's just asked me details about the potential purchase. On the specification sheets he sent me, the modified price quotes are on there, along with payment methods of either Western Union or HSBC Bank. My guess is it would be a direct transfer of...

    Anyone interested in a group buy for LED grow lights?

    What was the name of the person you were in contact with through the company? And speaking of which, what was the name of the company? Just curious. Would you mind telling me more about your experience? I would like to hear some more, so post it here or PM me. Thanks!

    That should make a pretty big difference, especially if your last girls were root-bound at all.

    If you don't mind my asking, how many plants and how much yield total?

    Anyone interested in a group buy for LED grow lights?

    What size room are you growing in? I would love to see some pics of your current setup, as well as when you acquire the rest of the lights. It makes a ton of sense to use lights on the sides as supplemental, since it would help equalize the growth and the plant wouldn't have to work as hard to...

    How long are you planning on flowering for? (Excuse this if the question has been asked already) ~Cap'n

    Anyone interested in a group buy for LED grow lights?

    Both of your ideas are fantastic. I think the second one (for me, at least) is quite feasible. Since I'm now sourcing separate grow cabinets to allow comparison growing (also the reason I'm buying two 300W LED grow lights instead of one 600W), I would think it would be pretty easy to set up a...

    Anyone interested in a group buy for LED grow lights?

    LOL, you can...there's a little "edit" button on the bottom of each post for a couple weeks after the original post date I think. I'm starting to think that the majority of the people interested in potentially buying these lights are afraid of getting burned, so to speak. While others have...

    Lets Hear Some JOKES!

    Why do pot smokers do it doggy style? So they can both watch the timer on the microwave.

    By the way, can I ask where you got your numbers for the color temperatures of the various color LEDs? When I calculate using Wien's Displacement Law, I get 9000K color temp = 321nm in the EM spectrum (UV-B). A typical 450nm LED has an equivalent color temp of 6439K. 1800K = 1609nm in the EM...

    No. I do not have a spectrometer and have not personally tested UFOs. But science does not lie. If there is no UV spectrum present, no effects due to UV will be present. In essence, what I'm saying (again) is that combining different colors of light does not change the spectra that are present...

    Unfortunately, your theory is incorrect. Light doesn't combine to give you different wavelengths. Combining the red and blue doesn't give you UV. If you were to put a spectrometer under the UFO lights we've been discussing, the only UV that you would see present in the spectrum would be if the...

    Good deal! I hope that your grow goes well. Don't forget to post pics of your progress! It'll help tremendously in getting more people interested in LEDs for their lighting solution. There are a lot of people out there who are perfectly fine using the 90W UFOs, but myself, I want the higher...

    It's pretty easy. If you know the specified beam angle, then you can do a few simple calculations to get the area of the base of a cone. Do some more, and you can figure out how wide the circle of light is at varying distances away from the lamp.

    I hate to say it, bud, but this seller is a scammer selling a gimmick product. Just the claims alone in the specs you posted are ridiculous. Equivalent to a 250W HPS? Not possible for a 14W panel. The specs in the listing say that the recommended coverage is 4 sq-ft. (approx. 2x2); the listing...

    Anyone interested in a group buy for LED grow lights?

    What I'm proposing is NOT odd. There are many, many, MANY instances of forum members joining together to do a group buy of various products. Just do a simple search for "group buy" on google, and see how many different forums you come up with, and how many different types of products. It's...

    Anyone interested in a group buy for LED grow lights?

    Read this, homeboy. As I said in an earlier post (which just proves you lied about reading the thread), the EU has been slowly phasing out incandescent lights above 100W. It will eventually spread to HID bulbs, as again, they are HIGHLY inefficient. "Governments are discouraging the use of...

    Anyone interested in a group buy for LED grow lights?

    Hmm...I still fail to see how you assume that I'm ripping off growers as I want to have no other involvement with this group buy besides being one of the individual buyers. As I said, I have no desire to be involved in the monetary aspect. Now, about your experience in the subject. If you would...

    Anyone interested in a group buy for LED grow lights?

    Fortunately I am NOT a sales "bloke." As I have stated MANY times throughout this thread (though I'm sure you couldn't be bothered to read more than the title), I am NOT the seller of this product, nor am I interested in making any money on it. All I am trying to do is find people who ARE...
