i'd like one that's plenty of power for a smaller space, but is adjustable, so that i could lean it blue for veg, and when it's time to flower, crank it toward red. (i would also want supplemental side lamps of some kind, preferably similarly adjustable).
Whether that's what everyone would agree i should do, that's what i want to do.
I found some white cobs on ebay that look decent, but not sure... i was looking into the ledgroupbuy lumia at first, but it seems not quite right for the application (though it's adjustable and the whole package is just really nice). I want to build my own, but (A) i'm no electrician, and (B) i'm not sure where is the best place to source the right parts, or even which parts would be just right for the job. There's a whole slew of different stuff, and it's painstaking trying to solve all those multiple problems at once. It's a bit overwhelming. But for my situation, LED is a must, so i'm trying to find the best combination of efficacy/efficiency and lowest cost. I obviously don't want to spend anything on something insufficient, but i also would like to avoid "overkill." I don't need 600w worth of lamps; the space is just not that large. I'd rather employ strategic positioning, instead of having some crazy beast lamp bleaching tops but neglecting the sides and lowers... just not sure what to look for at this point (and i'm in the same spot w/ soil lol... so much confuse!).
Where'd you get those panels OP?
