LED Grow Lights

[RenettaHogan]

I purchased a led grow light for my ebb and flow system. It seems to be doing the job. Has anyone else given it a try? I hear it's the latest in grow lights and is energy efficient. My plants are budding at this point and look healthy. I went as far as to cover up the window my sytem was by to see if the plants would flourish with LED light only. This is the first time I've ever had a hydroponic system. I figured that it would be a great experiment. If it works, then I can take it into my classroom and use Ron's wonderful lessons. I want to have my students study and grow vegetables during the school year as part of their earth science. It will be a blast!!! Also, does anyone out there have the recipe for using Miracle Grow, Calcium Nitrate and Epsom Salt?
