yes the china based contact center worries me greatly.. Just when I think I found someone to buy from!! back to the drawing board
The of the matter is only 4 main US companies I'm aware of that's actually made stateside, but please correct me if i"m wrong. Apache, A51, CLW, and Kessil. The...
Just remember if you can try to include some cool-whites in there to provide the full in full-spectrum. Otherwise you will not be able to hit all of the bands in between. Remember the plant has evolved and specifically designed to sunlight standards. Sunlight is the true full spectrum...
QUOTE=PaxEtBonum;10187229]Yo. I've been watching discussions on here where people champion panels that are like the Buick of panels (hey, it's not too expensive and gets you to work). Look, I spent two decades growing, before law was on my side, and before I ever considered LED as a...

lol according to area51 no led panel using color led's are the way to go. they will grow just not use the whole spectrum...
Here's a little inside scoop in case you didn't know. Apache Tech if I recall is made up of 3-4 engineers and scientists who started it as a side business. They haven't invested much time and resources into the business it's not economically feasible yet and it shows as their website reflects...
You are absolutely corect in terms of cost effectiveness but I feel the Apache is a better panel. It's spec. is closer to the chlorophyll a/b par peaks and natural sunlight than the A51's, which is more similar to the HPS.
You can go brand-name or u can go and get a comparable panel with...
Unfortunately no. cause I've been doing it so long my journals' in my head. Like most people I got interested in leds cause I was looking for a more efficient alternative source of lighting for my girls. The problem was when I started to play with leds is the tech. was still in it's infancy...
Where am I,
Wassup sir. Think we should bring the boys over and hang with these guys bud. Can u drop the word over GC. You should post your results here for everyone.
Sounds like u've mad a great choice. I'm also running their last spectrum the 4500k/630nm and new all 3700k also along with Apache's 6100k/630's. I've been playing with leds for almost six yrs. now and gone thru almost 30 panel of different models and makes from chinese to american. You can't...
Just like the title says.. I'm about to build my box(4'L x 4'W x 6'T). My goal is to grow about four plants in soil at a time. I originally thought about doing a 750w hps setup to run continuously while using a 1000w MH setup(that can also run a 1000w hps for flowering). Technically I...
Sorry was typing too fast got ahead of myself. I meant the 30k+ lums u get at 15" or so from what I remember being told and verified with a light meter, and over 60k at 1inch away from canopy at 700watts with no burns. Try to do that with HID...The temp on the hottest part was 108degrees! I...
For faster growth and yield, u can drill more holes like 10-15, 1/8" holes along the sides and bottom of a 5gal buc for example for faster aeration so u can push the plant more by giving weaker solution every watering and keep roots from salt damage. A trick known for years by master growers...
Seem like u have a good soil mix started, just ad perlite for aeration(30%), and domilite lime at 1cup per gallon. Organic soil get acidic after bacterias break down organic matters. U also need the added Ca that gets washed away when leaching often along with K. All major brands nuts will work...
