as recent developments have shown in the led market the lens for reflecting and focusing the light plays a more crutial role than the wattage of the bulb
most higher wattage leds i have researched rec being a couple feet from tops during flowering and further during veg to induce internode stretch
heck i can get a 1,000 watt cool hood closer than that???
 
Light height seems to be the drawback with the 5 watters and some of the more powerful 3 watters. With the lights I'm using, Blackstar and GLH, I get good node spacing at about 18" in veg and can lower them to about 10 - 12" during flowering. The lense angles also play into it. 120 and 90 degee lenses can be closer to the canopy top than 60s.
 
no harm in trying it if you like doing diy mate :peace: Si
 
yeah diy i have a 400w hps for regular use just want to know how a diy led works and who knows how it turns hope good:cool:
 
you know what they say "you never know till you try it" :peace: Si
 
have a go m8 i've just had great results with 1 watt led's which i'm gonna post the results of tommorrow :thumbs:
 
I would do a fair amount of reasearch an planning before you try and make your panel. Cheap will become pretty damn expensive if you dont.
