But would you say that Kind is a good LED source minus the price? I'm getting it around tax time so price isn't an issue, I just rather invest in something I won't need to replace no time soon.

If I knew what LED chips they used, I wouldn't be asking any of you in here. I'm asking because I don't want to waste money on my first grow, which happens to be for my personal gain. I've looked at YouTube videos and Googled so much that I'm still not sure lol. I Definitely am not getting any Hps or the other one, so LED is something my mind is made up on. That's why I'm asking the Veterans here who know way more than me so that they can recommend a light I can grow with for my first grow. The two I liked so far is the Kind and the Diamond. The most plants I'd grow would be 4, so I'm not in it for the $$$$$....not yet of course lol. Whatever you or anybody recommend I will take into consideration and research it and base my decision off that.
Thank you for educating me.

If you've got a lot to spend and you want led,get apache tech or area 51.if moneys tight.and its gotta be led,go with a few mars panels.i run 2 mars 450 reflectors and do ok with em.ya get what you pay for.hps is better.i run a 600 hps in a cool tube,with panels as extra support.get lovley resin and nice icey buds like that bro.

Would this be a good investment instead of getting two of those 450's?

Just make a panel like mine it will cost about $750 at make a 400+ panel and outperform the lights you are looking at.

@REALSTYLES, I looked at most of your thread....That light is Awesome! My hat goes off to you. I'm not that tech savy as of yet and to be honest, I'd rather pay you to build one for me just because you actually know what you're doing. With my schedule, I wouldn't have the time to do all of that. But I must say, those lights were blinding!

In comparison to it's competition, it's actually very low.
It puts out higher numbers than many other leds that cost 2x as much. The big boy has a built in timer, customizable spectrum, & you can time the spectrum. E.g. 30 minutes before lights off you can program the reds to get more intense to mimic nature.
I've always liked the Spyder BML's, the Kind K5 1,000 slaughters them at half the cost. & they run crazy cool. Barely a difference from the on temp & off temp.
Most people who are into led's have a favorite. I've read on here the Apache & Area 51 are the only ones some people will consider. I can't say the Kind K51000 is the best numbers wise, but I've seen it spank several other leds. & I think plant specific lighting spectrums are the next big thing.
I ran 2 of my current plants under LED for the last round. Veg & Flower, & i've noticed, that even though my HPS flowers (this round) are larger & harder, some of the strains produced more thc/trichs/resin under LED.
The WW though, did better under the HPS. Much stickier, smellier...a lot of resin production. So I think having the ability to precisely manipulate light spectrums is the future...& Kind is the only company I've noticed doing it.

@Junk, Thank you because my heart tells me Kind K5 750 is the way to go. I spent yesterday looking at YouTube comparisons between Kind and other LED's and I must say, Kind shut them down...but as always, people had their own opinions. I still have a lot to learn but come tax time, I'm getting that 750.

If cash is not a concern look at illumitex; search the forum for threads.

@indicabush, What's the difference between non-dimmable, direct & manual dimming on the Neosol DS? It looks amazing and about the same price as the Kind K5 750.

Ha,ha,ha..I was just reading the News on illumitex when your alert popped-up; this link should help you out or check out their Spec-sheet.
I use illumitex myself for 3 years now; the units I have are nothing compared to the new lights they have. Still and all I'm very satisfied to this day with overall results. When I'm not growing cannabis I use them other purposes pertaining to indoor gardening.
