  1. Ok let me start off by stating my facts I'm using 1 75 watt 4 bulb cfl 2 15 watt led panel's (cheapo depo ones from ebay) and im building my own for extra lighting on breadboards. the breadboards are planned to have 200 8000mcd 40degree leds on them so that should produce saficiant light i think for a 3 plant grow im hoping to get 4 ounces out of this or more. my strands will mainly be advaced seeds critical (10 seeds) the rest are one seeders and i have one black disel one critical sensi star one samsara holy grail and one sugar mango seed all feminized so we should be good. im going for ger minating one of each if i get lucky and they all pop then the game will change ill add more leds but only using one cfl lamp. lets hope this works! it will be a closet grow the mylar is on the walls and the cfl is up im waiting on the seeds which should be any day since im in the uk and i ordered them from the attitude seed bank. =] pictures will come when im done building my lights and put my seeds in the germination

    Youll see them soon enough. Ill have 4 boards two different setups for each . 2 boards will be comprised of 200 8000mcd leds blue and red. the other two boards will be 20,000 mcd leds same colors. the idea is to see if mcds really matters when it comes to leds. Also i will produce all my results on how to make my boards yourself and where to buy the parts at :) china is the only place to buy from the uk each bulb is like 70C american

    EDIT:
    Also working out a deal with them right now for 10mm 170,000 MCD bulbs 200 for only 60 bones ;) thats a deal
