    According to the response that I received from the sales manager at Rambo, they can make pretty much any light customized with the spectrum you like. Depending on the variety used, the price fluctuates somewhat, but like I said, pretty much whatever you want. As far as the other question...

    The Best Deals Thread. Post Best Deals And Lowest Prices Links

    Y'all are gonna like this one: I found a indoor air quality monitor, that happens to have both an RS232 and relay output. Paired with a PLC or a computer, this could potentially be a fantastic automation tool for CO2 injection, light timing, fan timing, pump schedules...the list goes on as...

    150 hps closet grow, what do i need?

    I have to disagree with you on this. If the temperature differential between his dark and light cycle is too dramatic, it could induce unwanted stretching in the plants, defeating the purpose of LST. Say his temps are peaking at about 78 degrees with a 150W HPS, and then he shuts it off for the...

    Going Big: New Year, New Grow! 600w DWC tent

    If they're bushy, they have to be female, right? ;) :fire:

    Glass tubing

    It's all about how much you want to spend. Cooltubes through a distributor are more cost effective, currently, as the distributor is buying them in bulk. The average home grower generally doesn't have the funds to make it workable. 6 inches comes to around 150mm -- a 155mm ID x 3mm thick wall x...

    what do you do with your resin?

    I smoke mine, but that's only because I don't have much money for cheeba, and when I run out, I'm generally out for 2-3 weeks at a time. Personally, I think some of the better tasting resin comes out of bongs and waterpipes, and some of the more potent resin comes from dry pipes. As far as the...

    Anyone interested in a group buy for LED grow lights?

    Well, it seems this is the death of this thread. :-( Unfortunately for those of you interested in the group purchase, it will not be happening. Not enough people have come forward to say "hey, I want one of those!" and thus, I can't place an order at this time (I can't afford more than one at...

    That said, I won't be purchasing any LEDs anytime in the immediate future. There were not enough people who made it known that they were interested, and thus, the group purchase will not end up happening. Instead, I'll be using 300W of HID in my next grow, and will work on saving the money to...

    Welcome to the forums here @ RIU! I'll be completely honest. My experience extends only to the research and science of LED grows. I know the science behind it, but as of yet, I've had neither the finances nor the opportunity to purchase any LED lamps to grow with (hence the group purchase...

    Anyone interested in a group buy for LED grow lights?

    Taking a quick minute to post during my exceedingly long break between classes (7 empty hours that I'm stuck on campus!). I just finished filing my taxes yesterday, and I'm sorry to say that they came up less fruitful than originally expected. Thank you, US gov't, for fucking me over once more...

    Red and Blue LED lights

    I hate to be the dick that says this, but you need to use the search function before your cursor heads to the "new thread" button. There are literally hundreds of threads discussing the benefits and disadvantages of LED growing. A simple search will bring you to a large list of these. I'll...

    How tall?

    Then yeah, I would estimate 4-4.5 feet tall at harvest. If you train them a little, you can keep the height shorter.

    Spectra Unit 90watt Led grow, almost done.Whe got buds...

    To a certain extent, I agree. The majority of the lights that people are buying and using in their grows are of the cheaply built, snake-oil variety. I'm probably going to be purchasing a few that, by the research I've done, *should* be better quality than those. Once I've bought and received...

    Spectra Unit 90watt Led grow, almost done.Whe got buds...

    Pay attention when I start my grow log around the end of February, beginning of March. I'll be doing a same-wattage (300W) comparison between LED and HID lighting, using fog-ponics as the growing method. There is also another thread on this forum, where the grower has a direct comparison between...

    How tall?

    Plants generally grow between 2 and 3 times as large in flower as they are in vegetative state. Being that those are both indica varieties, they *shouldn't* stretch much. Assuming this is the case, you can tentatively plan on between 4 and 5 feet tall. I would personally estimate more on the...

    Spectra Unit 90watt Led grow, almost done.Whe got buds...

    I hate to say it, but I'm about to burst your bubble here. Those panels aren't 225W each, they are 225 x0.06W LEDs, with a total output of 13.5W each panel. So really, for your $90, you got a grand total of 54W of output, nowhere even close to the 900W that you stated. This is not to say that...

    How tall?

    You're lacking some important info here -- what stage are they in, how long have they been in that stage, what type of setup are you running, etc. It's a lot easier to make predictions when all the information is present.

    Utilizing fish pond for indoor grow

    Properly used, the water could be very nutritional for plants, being that it has high levels of mineral salts, specifically nitrates and nitrites as you said. Can we see some pics of this indoor pond though? It sounds intriguing, and I've never seen one in someone's house before. :P
