Would an LED panel be too much for cloning and seedlings.
I know clones don't usually like a lot of light at first but I was wondering how they respond to LED.
Has anyone done this?
Only one way to find out!!I actually have 2 cuts in my Flower Tent right now under LED lighting. They are about 40 inches or so below the lights. Want to see if LED lights and 12/12 will still allow them to throw roots for me. Figure experience is the best teacher.
When the price of LEDs comes down I think they'll be used everywhere. Flos and HID are great but the bulbs have a limited useful life span and we, or me anyway, forget to change them out when we should. The LEDs keep their intensity 5 to 10 times longer so really pay off in the long run.My present grow has been under LED`s from the get go. First time sprouting under LED`s, used t8`s before. Just had the lights 4 or 5 foot away. 11 of 12 sprouted and are doing great. Think they are the best yet, when compared to my other grows.

Once they are rooted that light becomes pretty useless in terms of growth, and keeping nodes extremely tight.
For vegging I feel you need at least 150watts of true power over a 3x3 area to keep the plants stacking nodes for maximum flower sites.
