    O. K. I bought into them. I'm a brand new grower with 5 plants at 8 weeks. I've had them under flouros so far. I've ordered some LED lighting from solaroasis.com. I am going to start them on 12/12 as soon as lights come in, supposed to be tuesday. Any one have any input on LEDs? I will soon at any rate. Talk to ya'll later.

    You should have done the research before you bought the product. From what I've heard LED lights are OK for vegetative growth but suck ass for flowering.

    an HPS bulb is really the only technology that will provide a high yield. flouros are great for vegging and from what I've heard LEDs are pretty decent as well, but I wouldn't recommend flowering on LEDs

    thx guys appreciate the input. I've heard a lot on both sides, so I'm gonna try and see what I end up with, may have to get HPS later on anyways.

    I have the same bar, and I can tell you it wont veg a plant very well, as it's mostly red light. I wouldn't leave it alone to flower a plant either, use it along with warm/soft white fluorescents. It is the only light directly on the tops of two of my plants, and they are pretty fat, so I am going to go ahead and say it is good for flowering, but it needs help as it's not very powerful.

    led's and some fluoro's will work really good.
