Thanks Christopher Andrews. The really weird thing is, you have a very English sounding name, but your website makes you sound like a Chinese! Are you sure your name isn't Christopher Wang?

Looking good - has it met your expectations thus far..??

Yeah. And then some. There's not a lot of heat coming off the LEDs and some of the buds are starting to bleach from the intensity. I had to turn down the power on them from a measured 560w to 480w - or 70w a square foot to 60w - but they're still kicking arse. I'm at 5 weeks and the buds are swelling and some of the plants are starting to get frosty. I'll post some pix a bit later.

Cool pics, cool plants, cool thread, good info and all that jazz.
I'm injecting some advice, musings from my flouro grows to add more work.
or spam depending yer point of reference.
I considered my grow style with flouros would be suited to LED growing. Since both lights have lower light penetration then HIDs (i think that's true?); but both lights can be lowered right on 'em. more efficient.
So here is the extra work, Train the plants into an even low canopy. Thus the lights can remain right on 'em. Carry it through the stretch And end with even sea of colas with the light still right on 'em. I thought I throw it out fwiw.
