    Unfortunately, I have not. To be honest, I haven't been very active on here lately. Unemployment woes, ya know? My buddy and I are planning on growing very soon though, and when we do, I'm going to propose the idea to him about the LED pole, and see if he would be willing to kick in on the...

    Anyone interested in a group buy for LED grow lights?

    Hey y'all. Sorry I haven't been on in a while. Financial issues, you know how that goes. Anywho, I have gravitated from buying a pre-made LED lamp setup to planning a design for my own. When I get the chance to do that, you'll hear from me again concerning LEDs...until I get my finances...

    A Taste Of The Art I've Done Over The Past Few Years

    Haha thanks for the friendly words. Yeah, drawing is the main medium that I enjoy doing, though photography is a close second. As far as my avatar, nah, I didn't do that -- it came from a custom bootloader image for my T-Mobile G1 (Android love!!!). I'm bored during my 7 hour break during class...

    Depends on your setup, and the spec'd beam angle of the LEDs comprising the lamp you are looking at. Assuming that you would be using a 300W lamp with a 140 degree beam angle, you should be able to do between 20-30 smaller plants in a SOG setup, and probably about a maximum of 8-10 in a ScrOG or...

    My Furniture

    I've always loved furniture design. Do you know / have you seen some of the stuff designed by Wendell Castle? I met him a while back when I was taking a sculpture class -- my Sculpture professor had a show with him in Rochester, NY. A little later, I was back at RIT, and he had some stuff...

    Hurricane glass

    I have no idea the quality of the vase, but since the OP seems to be looking for a larger than 5" tube, it was the cheapest that I could find with a quick online search. Agreed, though, about the light transmission. The disadvantages provided by the blocked light are far outweighed by the...

    Hurricane glass

    I would not assume that the shade will block any usable light (with the exception of UV light, and that is definitely not a certainty). Different types of glass have different levels of light transmission, as well as different properties concerning heat. I would make a bet that the glass is not...

    Glass tubing

    I just found this...affordable, and you would simply have to cut the base off (flaming string technique or dremel with diamond cutoff wheels). http://www.100candles.com/items/item_9484.htm (20" x 6") ^^Hope that helps your dilemma! EDIT: Need a bigger one...

    Heath's Dizzy !!!

    Haha, seems to be the case, doesn't it? Heath, do you think you're going to get a decent amount or quality out of this? I ask, because I am wholly uneducated about this type (ABC) of plant. Or is this just more of an experimental grow?

    Heaths Flooded Tube Vertical

    I love your FTV setup Heath! Fantastic way to utilize the maximum sq. footage available. I'm actually trying to come up with a way to do the same basic thing in a very tight area (24x24x60) -- I'm pretty well on my way with the design. I did want to let you know, though, that your link isn't...

    led

    Especially not the one the OP linked to. Looking at it, it contains a lot of unnecessary spectra that are taking the place of more usable spectrum LEDs. I most definitely wouldn't spend $279 on it, that's for sure. Maybe if it were around 125 bucks...

    how many plants?

    I would agree. More than likely a 150W MH or HPS will significantly affect your end results. As far as the Flying Piggies go, if you're in the U.S., in 2001, it was deemed illegal search and seizure for the police to use FLIR on properties to garner warrants. A warrant is necessary before any...

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

    Hey, I just wanted to apologize for sparking the Hairy-Bush-Fest in your thread. Other than that, your plants are looking good (aside from the pH problems you had). Hope things continue to go well! :clap:

    Most definitely create a grow journal. We need to keep having people do that, so the nay-sayers can actually see the progress and results and shut their mouths. LED powahhhhhh!!!!!

    To answer your question about the differences between a few nanometers, here is my short answer...

    To answer your question about the differences between a few nanometers, here is my short answer: Consider that only 10nm separates 625nm (red) and 615nm (orange) -- so yes, having the exact spectra (within 2-5nm either direction) should produce the most desirable results. Concerning the...
