The CLW 200 (162 watt) is only good at flowering a 2'x2'. I wish it could do more 'cause I own one as well. http://www.californialightworks.com/info/CLW_Brochure.pdf
I love it when there's a big storm coming, everyone freaks out and clears the shelves at the grocery stores. First things to go are milk, bread and eggs. Apparently everyone has the urge to make French Toast.
And on a more serious note, just go to Ebay and enter "1/8 rope ratchet". Get what you...
"I've done every method. Main lining is very strain dependent." True, many factors to consider. Everyone has different needs and situations. I like the ability to move plants around as I have separate veg and perpetual bloom areas.
"Just super cropping the main stalk a few times." That's the...
Get the most from your Hans by "mainlining";

Their figures don't make sense. 100% 5w Royal Blue XT-E LEDs running at 4w each gives your garden the most intense vegetative light on the planet.
The 200 draws 165 watts. It should be over 200 watts with fans and drivers. (50 leds x 4 watts=200 watts)
The 300 draws 363 watts. This seems...
Growblu tested all blues which can be seen in some of these videos;

After testing their concept lights, this is what they chose as their "veg" lights.
380, 420, 430, 440, 460, 470
It sounds like you have enough light already.
With that space at 32"x32" I would think you should be getting at least 200 grams easy.
I'd go smaller Hempy buckets. Some people get better yields using 2 or 3 gallon containers.

^^^^Lights-yes
Tent-yes, but way too expensive. Check Gotham Hydroponics or HTG Supply.
Fan- no, total overkill.
Soil-not sure. I would go coco/perlite 70/30 *see note below.

For your future grows, try adding 20%-30% chunky perlite and use a breathable container such as an Airpot or a Smartpot. You can also just drill small holes in you existing pots to let them breathe.
A need to water every 2 or 3 days seems optimal for coco w/LED.
A CFL bulb(s) would be a better...
Eshine Systems LED BUYER BEWARE!
Posted on Friday, October 5th, 2012 at 8:48 am.
Eshine LED is a cheap Chinese factory that falsely claims to manufacture the Diamond Series so people will think they are buying a real Diamond Series LED. If you are...
Advanced are NOT sold on Amazon.
Amazon sells the fake one from Eshine. They are not the same.
If you want Eshines, you can get them cheaper directly from Eshine in China. http://www.eshinesystems.com/led-grow-light.html
It's overkill, but in a good way.
Most here would recommend an Area51 160 or the new 190 as they are more efficient.
The DS is more expensive, but makes some serious dank. You would not regret that purchase.
Make sure you're dealing with the real Advanced and not some Eshine reseller.
The real...
