Hey folks,
I'm very curious to know if any of you know of this new technology of LED lights being used for plants?
I ordered a set of bulbs from these guys off ebay (a way cheaper way to go) www.gro-tek.com (they have a lot of info but when i search the web the only other info I can find is from other LED lamp makers, no product reviews.
Anyhow, being a gaget nut I have ordered a set of seven bulbs which look like red and blue traffic lights (supposedly enough to bloom Cattleya orchids over 12 square feet or a 3 ft x 4 ft terrarium). Supposedly emitting only the spectrums that plants need, so they loook really funky and dark to human eyes, like a light garden from an episode of star trek or something but I thought I'd be adventurous and give them a try.
Anyone else ever heard of these or used them? They are pricey but if they only draw a few watts of and actually grow the same as HPS or MH without the heat or power this would be awesome!
