LED grow lights have good and bad reviews, there’s no doubt that LED grow lights are a forerunner for future indoor growing, they out compare other grow lights in terms of light degradation over time or their total life time.

With LEDs it possible to create the exact wavelength of light that the plant need to grow or flower. HPS grow lights and Metal Halide lights waste a lot of their energy producing some light which is not beneficial to the growth of the plant.

LED grow lights don’t create much heat as a byproduct, so they can be placed extremely close to your plants without burning them. They would also work extremely well in confined spaces due to the lack of heat produced so would be beneficial to those who use hydroponic grow tents or poorly ventilated spaces.

However the setup costs for LEDs can be quite high depending on your grow space and the number of plants you’re wanting to grow. My research suggests that plants typically need 150 - 200 watts of LEDs lights. That’s a lot of lights, so for those who want to venture into the world of LED grow lights you might want to use them for seedlings and cloning and then decide whether the outlay of fitting your entire grow room or tent with LED grow lights is feasible or not.
