    Is This Gonna Do Anything?

    My youngest daughter gave me this for my birthday the other day and I told her I would start a couple seeds to try it out. It is a 45W multi function LED something-or-other with built in timer. I have virtually no indoor light grow experience except for hardening off clones to go outside. It emits 2 different spectrum colors individually or a combo of both. I'm kinda committed to trying it out now but if anybody has any comments on what my expectations should be, I would appreciate it. BTW: The plant is a Wedding Cake clone that was not grown under it. I had to post a review on Amazon for her so she could get some kinda credit. Thanks

      Sorry but I agree. It dont look like it would be good for much more'n seedlings..... IF the Utah St & my own experiments hadn't proved that low wattage & twisty CFL bulbs were 100% bullshit.

        Looks cool man. Probably great for seedlings. Easily avle to rotate the light from what I can see. But once it gets those true leaves, it's gonna beg for light.

          I have another 100w grow light that I use for lengthening the daylight hours when I harden indoor clones that are used to 18 hours and it has been working ok for that. Maybe I could combine them both when these seedlings get to that point. Thanks for the input.

        I'm in a similar situation lol. Son in law lent me a light that was full of ladybug carcasses..... wtf I asked.... spidermites was the reply.... The light never made it into my house but I couldn't let on that the gift was unusable.....

          Exactly. So I just had 3 seeds pop today for this occasion and I'll put them under the light and she'll be happy. Honestly, the last thing I need right now is 3 more plants.

        What is the actual wattage of those lights? The real watts is what one wants to go by not the spoof watts. I have looked at that type and wondered how several of them would do, but to me they look weak, nice thought by your girl!
