I wonder if the equivalent wattage of LEDs compared to CFLs would produce more or less LUX
Comment from : M Kuc

Leds should be closer and the result would be much betterbrI have a 1500 watt led full spectrum and one 1000 watt led full spectrum And the are both 18 inches away from my plants and they love it
Comment from : Daniel Almond

What's the name of the app you used to make the light spectrum?
Comment from : Christherock23

Can you do an experiment on the electricity usage and plant health, if you turn the lights off at short intervals? Example: lights turn ogf for 10 seconds every 20 seconds, or some other combinations
Comment from : Azim Alif

Hello, nice experiment Could you share the model of your light meter which includes color output? , cheers
Comment from : Hugo Ramirez

My COB led chips are 2 times better than CFL with same power
Comment from : NikyS

Thank you so much
Comment from : Joey Soprano

With out a wall between the lights are interfering with each other
Comment from : Daniel Garrow

Are these lights same as what humans use for red light therapy?
Comment from : LD

Very low powerdo not expect much yeild
Comment from : Backup in the Day

About the same But HPS and Metal Halide are easily the best lights for good yields
Comment from : Backup in the Day

Your buy cheap LEDs you need to buy some SMS 3030 or lm281b or 301B
Comment from : Aaron Drake

did you check temperature? I think CFLs provide some amount of heat as well
Comment from : José Eduardo

you read spektum power wrongly
Comment from : Dragonite Advanture

What's the yeild averages or per Light ?? I'm used to old school 1000 watt Halide and sodium We got close to 2 pounds per light in sealed room systym using coca as medium Simple systym and we thought 18 pound per 1000 watt was a good yeild ?
Comment from : Eddie spagetti

What App is this on your phone? Thanks
Comment from : Juliete Boomkin

what is that light meter you are using and does it require additional sensors? great video thankyou
Comment from : all things electric

Really good information here thank you
Comment from : Taz Mahomed

Hello I’m curious as to what app you are using?
Comment from : Sean Huffstickler

So do u recommend CFL over LED?

Can I put led strip white to bonsai ficus plant?
Comment from : Stagmike

Thank you so, so much for this I am growing ornamental/indoor plants on a north facing outdoor balcony (in a tropical country) and was wondering what type of lights that I can use brSeeing as I am a newbie, I decided to just buy some cheap T5 LEDs to try out - and my dormant plants started sprouting new leaves, stems, gotten taller within A WEEK of 8-10 hours exposure to the lightsbrbrSeeing these results, I thought perhaps I should dabble into grow lights but they're so much more expensive and I didn't know if it was worth it After scouring the internet, there's just SO MUCH CONFLICTING information brbrYour video & experiment (despite being close to 6 years old), is proof that I needed that my success was not a fluke and I'll be definitely purchasing CFLs for my other set ups which is a fraction of the cost Besides, I'm not growing for fruits and yield, thus I think normal CFL would be more than enough to keep my plants happy-ish brbrI'm unsure if you'll see or answer my question, but do you think it would benefit my plants by keeping the lights contain or directed? ie having a mesh cover over the shelves? brbrAlso, thank you so much for doing this experiment and making this video!!!
Comment from : Quack Moo Meow

I recommend 3500k good balance of red to blue light and watch for a good CRI rating (color reproduction index)

Comment from : Adee Ade

I'm just researching led grow lights for my aviary garden, the growth doesnt have to be the best It just needs to keep them alive
Comment from : Big Island Chickens

I will be updating my T8 1 foot duel bar for a quad bar fairly soon, hoping for good results,manufature dose state min of 50W per meter squared but putting that bit extra should give a slight advantage but using blue/red and normal sunlight, will this be any good or should I just go with spending more to get good results
Comment from : Shane Fowkes

Led strips gtfoh with that dumb shit
Comment from : Beluga Whale

I am old school And this seems like a science project I would rather grow under the cfl I just bought a big ho fluorescent If it is not brighter or better than my led or fluorescent shop light It’s going back I will go back to cfl I can’t stand the silliness between the led and fluorescent We’ve been doing it for years I’m not going to cry over a 2 yield lol I don’t even buy that shit I want to see living ass proof like this Led is just more contained U have to spend an ass load of monies for absolutely no reason Anything can flower under these lights Period U have to know what u are doing
Comment from : Check for Fleas

you might try some full spectrum led lights
Comment from : eric townsend

You could just remove some CFLs to do a power comparison Would be a cheep way to test what is the most efficient at approximately the same power level
Comment from : Mark Regan

You read your graphs wrong Look at the figures It is the colour at the top of the graphic that is the highest Lower colours are displayed in the foreground or you would not see them CFL shows a lot of green Could you try lowering your led lights to get more light to the seedlings?
Comment from : Mark Regan

Nice video It would be great to measure temperature, too LED lights product less heat than CFL It is possible the extra heat from CLF bulbs favoured plants growth After all, still a great video Thanks for all the effort and resources!
Comment from : Jack Liu

I use a combination of CFL and LED with my plants I also found that CFL produced the best results
Comment from : Christopher Aaron

lights need to be closer to plants
Comment from : ken2400

HibrThis is such an amazing videobrCan you please tell how did you measure spectrum of light?
Comment from : shoaib ahmad

You need to do multiple plants of the same variety under each condition to discount the possibility of individual differences in the plants themselves
Comment from : DrSpooglemon

You cannot hv just daylight it must be mixed min 30 warm white (3500k)
Comment from : Genghis Khan (PUREBLOOD)

love watching people who don't know about LED trying to do controlled testing you need blue spectrum LED to compare against your blue spectrum CFL the red is great for flower not vegetative growth I only wish this test was performed correctly
Comment from : Nitrocell928

hey, do you like cottage cheese?
Comment from : JLee V

Well I am thinking the CFL is more productive I actually want my plants plentiful when I harvest them I don’t believe I want to trade money in an electric bill for that growth I’ve seen some serious side by sides Think I might go with the CFL
Comment from : Mischelle

Weren't the lights too far from the seedlings?
Comment from : Guy Eshel

Helpful
Comment from : q w

Change cfl bulbs to 2700 bulbs and test light
Comment from : I am

The led fixtures should have been placed much nearer to the canopy imo Also I always grow with lamps around 3k - 35k as that's more typical for a full spectrum grow in my experience During veg the cfl will be better with all that blue but during flower themred spectrum led's should perform better

Love the video and the content Keep growing them ladies to the sky I'm new to YouTube and channel creation/content Id love if you stopped by and help GROW our Cannabis community Much love and respect from Canada
Comment from : Potent Chronic

Could it be because the aluminum top is more reflective?
Comment from : ys6425

SO the no any LED stip in the market that us good for growing to keping the house plant alive?
Comment from : Kevin Mu

Have you considered replacing your CFL light bulbs with inexpensive daylight LED light bulbs? I'm interested in growing lettuce, spinach, and herbs Praise Jesus!
Comment from : TeePeeB

anyone out there
Comment from : Justin Hodson

Looks like you are trying to compare chalk and cheese, how can you compare lights with large differences in light levels?
Comment from : Clive Francis

What is the app you are using to measure?
Comment from : mindauguij

hahaha led smd is 10cm to plant for hard grow no 30cm is not compare possible lumens is best value for compare
Comment from : Quentin B

Wrap up your shelves using a solar blanket to reflect more light onto the plants I get them at the dollar store : ) It also keeps out drafts and a consistent growing temperature
Comment from : Mz CD

Just start this hobbies due to the covid 19 I've one question, is the CFL light is the same as the conventional light or it is specifically built to grow?
Comment from : Muhammad Syafiq

Idea: CFL has a lot of radiation output Thanks for Teaching! C< 3)>>-Z->}
Comment from : zUs CLHz

Walmart - hyper tough shop light 5000l 250w???
Comment from : Jason Spears

The led have to be closer to the plants so they can do better Great video by the way keep up the good work
Comment from : Acacio Soto

Cfl are warmer leds are cooler you would need a controlled separate environment for each plant to have an accurate side-by-side test you would have to measure the temperature of the root Zone plants and Air in each grow room
Comment from : Shawn Biers

You were reading the results incorrectly on the lux test! All 3 charts were overlapping if you looked at the top under the total lux it breaks it down into the different colour spectrums
Comment from : dylannelson100

homeboy eats a lot of cottage cheese
Comment from : Beat Kids

WE GROW WEED!
Comment from : Enjoy!

Terrible job, completely worthless test, nothing is equal, watts, CFL side would be hotter also, better growing
Comment from : Garden Pond Fish Greenhouse

What advice could you offer me as I begin the first grow shelf for the purpose of starting tree seedlings indoors? Do you still feel that 6500k cfl lighting is the way to go for healthiest growth?
Comment from : Cole Barnett

All 3 are not good lol
Comment from : Deez Nuts

nice to see someone working hard to improve product development Add a temperature gauge to each site to rule out temperature affects on growth
Comment from : gary hradek

How long do you keep the lights on them?
Comment from : CeaserE

It looks like a lot of fun experimenting like that Keep at it and enjoy the learning experience
Comment from : gioknows

red/blue/white 3000lux, only white 4000 lux, and the best is bulbs ?
Comment from : Kieng Le

Thank ya for saving me a lot of money
Comment from : Side branches

The cfl lightsare thay a grow cfl or just ones you can buy at the supermarket
Comment from : bonzologist 882

White led stripes cost qround 35 dollars for 5 meters on aliexpress brAnd 6 dollars for the red and blue one (3red 4 blue)brSo your 35 dollars led grow light is more of a 10 dollars grow light
Comment from : BadouLaFole

Hi, what did you use/app to monitor the colour of light please?
Comment from : spear4food

So you compare a light with another that is 4x its intensity
Comment from : Reggie Buffat

LED lights cause defeciencys
Comment from : Richard Paige III

1 Those leds are way to far away! And they will not burn the plants what so ever 2 If your gonna compare different types of lighting, make sure everything’s the same wattage!
Comment from : John Vanetten

The plants tell the story, it aint the light spectrum here its light amountbrNot enough light on those LEDs , I avoided these strips for that very reason, also they are too far away from the plants, Think 1 watt leds should be about 12" from plant tops I just use the LED Daylight Bulbs (also 1 watt but far cheaper and far more light when combined ON A FLAT SURFACE (do not over think this) with defusers removed, lots of examples on YT Works like a champ
Comment from : Rhodes68

I'd like to see the LED's placed very close to the plants, so that the measured light output is closer to those of the CFL Since we know the lumen output is greater on one (CFL), it would be more fair to the comparison to put them closer, and possibly raise the CFL, so that the lumen at the plant is as close to identical as possible
Comment from : Adam

I think you may be reading those charts in reverse You are saying the lights are mostly “red” or mostly “green” light that is just how the spectrum is layered If you go by the lx number you will see that the “front” color may show more color on the screen but it’s the dimmest spectrum The chart is just stacked from least at the front to most at the back otherwise you would only see one color
Comment from : Nobunaga

Hi! Jumping in on a 2-year-old video Thanks for posting your results in the comments!
Comment from : Mark Gets Bored

thanks much appreciated
Comment from : Louis Feyt

I saw a lady bug! so awesome you do that
Comment from : Douglas Radcliffe

This video should be edited or revised with the caveat of flawed scientific procedure and misinterpreted data You could overdub the audio or at the very least update the video description Otherwise the video is misleading and bunk
Comment from : Steven Andrew

its all corect the fluorescent lamps have mercury vapors that emit ultraviolet rays when in use, thus more grows showing
Comment from : qwertyuiop

This initial experiment is fundamentally flawed since you must compare the actual light *at the leaves* LEDS do not put out the light penetration depth that fluorescents do LEDS need to be within inches of the plants I use 4 fingers The heat from the florescent bulbs will burn the leaves at the same height
Comment from : T Jean Vlogs

I think be better if you had higher wattage on the LEDs
Comment from : Big Nasty

You might want to try replacing the cfl bulbs with led bulbs Costco has some 5000K , 100watt replacemet bulbs pretty cheap
Comment from : Jim Frey

Do you have a video on your indoor setup? Looks like you have some type of plumbing tied into it over rocks I’m curious to know how you have it
