    Quest of the newbie Grower

    something like this, so you can lift the lid, put it on an empty holder bucket, clean and change your water, put the original bucket back. or even prepare a new bucket and simply swap in the new one

    Quest of the newbie Grower

    you can change what they run at yourself? are you talking about the two switches? i would just run it at full power all the way through veg because the color spectrum doesn't change just the power, but regardless cant wait to see them in action! are you going hydro? if youre growing in soil...

    Quest of the newbie Grower

    also you should try building a trellis or "scrog net" if you're going to put 6 plants in there, you can use it to best evenly spread your lights to make best use of your space. i managed to use the scrog method pretty successfully with some great results! i had a cheapy mars 600 panel with 2...

    Quest of the newbie Grower

    really? thats concerning considering i paid $1600+ for the lights they better not show up with metal shavings in them! but other than that do they seem to put out the power they claim?

    question about 1000w de

    im not 100% but i'm pretty damn sure its just stating that the unit can run using a 110v or 240v, most house outlets in the US put out 120v so you should be fine, theres no need to cut anything...

    Its a bitch but you just gotta hunch over your plants, hold a bud with one hand, and your scope with the other and try and have hands steady as a surgeon lol. if your microscope has built in LEDs it helps a lot with shadows blocking your light!

    very true ttystikk i dont think anyone has yet to do a completely unbiased, completely identical, COB VS HID grow yet, which would settle a lot of debate, and start many more. Have you done this yet? where could i see the results?

    No, i know what you mean, i did a lot of research and yes almost all the big name LED manufactures spew random trash numbers out. which is why i wanted to build my own COB setup, however i dont have all the tools, time, and room for error to do a DIY, so after a lot of research i found a couple...

    This is what i was told by the manufactures @GoGreenLEDs however i assume they measure the par readings of a 1000w hps and compare it to their own LED readings

    Have any of you DIY COB Growers finished a crop under 1000W DE HPS? - POLL

    very true, also "comfort" is a factor in my grow. my roomate has to sleep in the same room as the tent, our house does not have AC and it gets in the 100s in the summer and an HPS would just make that room unbearable! I just ordered 800w of cob "equivalent" to 1600w of HPS, we're putting it in a...

    i never said anyone claims its not a cost.. i'm saying some people do not understand how high your bill can get if you live in a densely populated area. therefore, making Electricity cost a more important factor to consider depending on where you live.

    When checking trics, ive been taught to look at the trics on the bud itself, the trics on sugar leaves mature and turn amber much quicker (in my limited experience)
