Well they maybe they're OK for grow, but just think they are a waste of time and money unless you’re tinkering for sheer pleasure (which is of course fine). I don’t buy into the wavelength stuff. The sun is white, not red and blue.
yes but isn’t it supposed to be because plants only used red and blue light?
Not true. Chlorophyll a absorbs at 410, 430 and 662nm, chrolophyll b absorbs at 428, 453 and 642. That’s 6 LEDs you need just to cover chlorophyll (in theory - though it’s not that simple), but there are many other pigments molecules, other than chlorophyll involved in electron transport also.
hahaha keep up the good information! None of that misinformation. LEDs are the future thats why NASA is using them to grow in space!!!Not true.
