  • do you recomend LEDs?

  • @jean9910

    Yes I do. You have to buy from a reputable company though as a lot of ebay lights are cheap ones that lack lumens. LEDs can give anywhere from 20lumens/w all the way up to over 200lumen/w. Good companies will use proper spectrums with about 80lumens/w. I learned the hard way. I like LEDs for home use as they barely heat up unlike HPS and Metal Halide lamps. HPS/MH lamps can cause fires, use more electricity, have to replace bulbs every 8 months, and cause heat issues.

  • Can i do this with red peppers?

  • @thughands

    Yes you can. I will be posting a Gypsy pepper comparison grow done with 4 separate LED lights. Gypsy peppers are taste and almost look like Bell peppers, I prefer growing them over bell peppers as they produce at least 2 to 3 times more flowers and fruit than bell peppers. I was very pleased with the LED pepper grow.

  • are those ufo led?

  • @nazilampshade

    Yes they are LED ufo's. There are a lot better LEDs out there now. I will be posting some new videos soon of 1w led chips vs 3w chips. The performance of the 3w chips shocked me when compared to the 1w.

  • I was LED sceptical until I saw this video! That is impressive! Thanks for your videos.

  • what kind of nutrients are you using for growing the broccoli bro?

  • @w8mk right on! we have a set of 90watts also. looking forward to seeing more videos!

  • @jonn8ball

    Actual cost in electricity was a bit over 11.00 for 60 days. This provided me with 4 very large broccoli plants.

  • @guest2424

    This is true. My actual intention here was to test out LEDs and the cost of growing it didn't matter to me.
