What is that bucket hanging there for?Uhaul,
I hear you billy. I'm having a blast myself with growing. Compared to my real work this shits a piece of cake. I managed to slam 60-70 hours a week, get my new room finished, take care of 2 little ones and please the anti-pot wife enough and I still enjoy the shit out of it. So many people complain it's hard, or I wouldn't like it cause the time it takes. I know it's different cause I'm new to it but I'm dreaming about it every second I'm away from my girls.

Little wiring and some new lights and I'm back in action.
Not huge, just a hobby room. 9x20 with a little veg room. Just doing autos so there is no real size stress.
What's the word on Niels grow pot more cheaply better than sun lights?
I just ordered a shit load of Auto Flower seeds
Fast Buds GSC Autos
West coast OG Autos
Sweet Devil XL Autos
Pineapple Express Autos
And Blue Dream Autos
Which will all be started in new room in about 10 days when they arrive
I've heard they are a bit finicky but I'm up for the challenge .. Any tips you can offer ?
My autos won't be started until next weekend and I'll be in new space so they won't have to be moved .. I just have to move 5 trees and 6 clonesNice selection. I only buy from autofloweringseeds.net the free seeds are great.
My plants should be dead nevermind produce, I changed lights so many times, switched nutrients, just basically did everything you shouldn't and I think I will end up pretty damn good. Definitely put them in their final pot even right from seed, lower nutrients and don't stress them out. A late night move in a uhaul truck might do damage.
Honestly You should check out mephisto genetics if you want banging autos.Deal directly with them...and ya plenty of freebies.I'd put mephisto up against any auto breeder in the world at this point.Nice selection. I only buy from autofloweringseeds.net the free seeds are great.

Dinafem really Got banging genetics? I'm interested in Rare Dankness, Humboldt Seed Organization, bodhi, and TGASubcoolMy friend uses them religiously. He is pulling1/2 lb autos constantly using toof decay and some other alien strain. I bet they are in USA cause the checkout was pretty strange. I'm sticking with dinafem for now till I try a few of his mephisto seeds out. My Girl Scouts turned out shitty, vast and fast ok and critical is amazing and still going
yeah Ive run some of their blue strains, blue widow, blue kush. The blue kush was bomb really nice smell low yield and lanky (like a kush). Tossed it mostly based on structure, lanky and didnt hold its own weight at all.Dinafem really Got banging genetics? I'm interested in Rare Dankness, Humboldt Seed Organization, bodhi, and TGASubcool
Sorry to see your troubles. It's an all too common problem, that most of us here have experienced. I know that you want to get the best bang for your buck when it comes to buying a nice, efficient light to grow with. I have used all sorts of panels and the recommendations that you've been getting from people are solid recommendations for quality lights, with results that you can find in this very forum. I hope that you will take the time to read some threads here, or at least listen to the experienced advice that people are trying to give you. Take care and good luck!
UVB, has never been an absolute, I don't think the extra cost is worth the UVB. if it is that important you can build your own uvb lamp for cheap. vs 6 cob's for 725.00 or 1145.00. ironically its a $420 dollar difference.Guys I really need some advice on lights. I was dead set on the kinds then I had the issues with them. Then I was set on the ceramics, then cobs and now the amare 450 with cobs, less and uv. the pots are in flood tables that equal 4x12. 3 of the ammare 450's would fit well and with the current sale be priced great but still at 2500 plus shipping they would be a little over budget. 4 Go green leds are around the same price for the 6 cob units with the deal they have. 4 Ceramic metal halide would be 1600 at my local shop. It's basically down to money I guess but I do have a decent budget. I believe cobs are the way to go, just unsure is the 12" uv bulb and few extra side leds make the amare worth the extra
The failure at first pissed me off but I now realize it's a blessing. I should end up with much better efficient lights and also save a few bucks tooopen that shit up its usually just a loose connection. spend 10 minutes troubleshooting

so you need to cover 3 4x4's (3 units) of T3-2100 w/reflectors would be $1590.00 (9 total cobs) imho a bit under lit for your space. or ( 3 units) of T4-1750 w/lenses 1950.00.(12 total cobs) good coverage and they are three feet long, so you would get some good cross lighting at the ends.
or three Pacific's also (3 units) 1950.00 (18 total cobs) oh snap he just raised the price to 725.00 so $2175.00. I think you would have excellent coverage, by the numbers on his site.
IMHO, if I was spending money right now, these two small companies would be my choices. TBH, some months form now when I do/if decide to change my light solution, I may just buy them I'm starting to loose motivation for DIY. lol
do you still have your kinds? did you get one fixed? you can use them also, with some tray rotation.
I had good results with my old(2) k3's and 2 CMH's in a 5x10
