They look like great lights. Rather pricey. I'm still not sure about LED lights but they are an interesting technology.

I still not 100% sure yet but I guess I won't find out till I try. The prices are crazy but I might be able to get some used ones at a more human price.
Any thoughts on the grow wheel ? Seems to be working fine for pot so why not for other plants ??

I have looked at those as well for growing peppers and tomatoes through the winter, ultimately the price was just too much to experiment with.

So the shelving on the Baker's rack has 4 x 4' T5HO per shelf with three shelves in total and 51 plant sites. The Wheel can grow up to 80 plants depending on what you're growing. Automatic watering from the wheel turning and the fixture is the Hydrogrow Vertical LED (first generation). The grow beds currently have room for about 80 plants but can be doubled up pretty easily. Half is growing on a raft system and the other half is ebb and flow with hydroton for media. Each half has a four foot T5HO fixture with 8 bulbs in it. You can run the whole system Aquaponically off the same fish tank or it can be split and run individually hydroponically or Aquaponically. Think of all the other types of plants like the orchids and ferns that I can grow hanging everywhere. There will be lots of wasted light so why not use it right ?
