Ah, yeah I understand that for sure. I work in sales and this year was a bit slow in November, so I wasn’t able to do my usual Black Friday spending but I did spend a few hundred on seeds that I probably shouldn’t have lol.Yeah most definiely, i'm hunting through Chasca (Super Silver Haze Bx2 x Chemdog Bx3) by lucky dog that might make it in time for the grow log. Otherwise ill just go through my bank and pop some more beans and get the cycle going again.
I don't have a par meter right now, I'm pretty much spent after this weeks sales. Picked up a new macbook air, the dragon s, a bunch of beans, 2 QB 96 and some amendments. What par meter do you use or recommend? Was checking some out the other day ball park 500 ish?
if was in the market for a par meter, I would go with the Apogee MQ-500. RapidLED sells them for $525 and then coupon code “dude” will get you $52 bucks off, so probably about $520 after tax. It is a bit of an investment just to do a more precise review of a light fixture, although a good PAR meter can definitely be used moving forward in terms of making sure your lights are at the right distance/strength for the grow phase you’re in, and making sure all your plants are getting adequate light. I don’t have one myself, despite the fact I’m currently doing a test run with one of Mars Hydro’s new lights. A buddy of mine has a cheap one, I think it was about $150, it’s a hydro farm I believe. It does the job too, but I don’t think it’s terribly accurate as readings will vary in the same exact spot and distance, but it’s a relatively small variance, so it would probably suffice. if I was buying one myself though, I would get the Apogee.
