    The skinny on LED's please

    If I needed a new light, I'd be looking at a DIY build with Bridgelux gen3 strips, >40 watt/sqft, spread out to cover the entire canopy. Strips + drivers <= $0.50/watt IMHO, unless you want to grow xmas tree plants, stay away from the quantum boards unless they're adequately dispersed. Strips...

    Compost tea takes care of my nutrient needs in soil, but megacrop would work as well as any other salt-based nutrient regimen. Certainly could be used to address any deficiency.

    Mega Crop is $48 + $25 shipping. BTW, N-P-K is 9-7-14 for Megacrop.

    Mega Crop is the answer. Been using it exclusively in hydro for 3 years. Complete, cheap and clean, with good buffering, and dead simple.

    Need help please

    Maybe dilute your hard water with distilled to save some cash if it seems too high, but it would have to be pretty high for me to worry about it. Folks can get carried away trying to fix a non-problem. When you implement the "pool shock" treatment initially, be sure to soak your entire root...

    Outdoor seedlings

    If you start in direct sun from germination, and if they get daily exposure to several hours of direct sun, yes.

    Outdoor seedlings

    If the seedlings have been started indoors, without direct sunlight, you should leave them out under partial/dappled sunlight for a couple of days before putting them under direct sun.

    Appetite and weed

    Google THCV, appetite. It turns out our endocanabinoid system is heavily involved in regulating weight through stimulation/suppression of appetite. My weight -- and proportionally, my appetite -- fluctuates 20-40 lbs below my "normal" weight, depending upon the mix of THC, THCV, and CBD in the...

    Which Mid Line LED Light Would You Buy?

    I would go with the Philizon. The output and coverage are a reasonable match for your canopy size, though, would be better suited for a 5x5 area. An option to consider is dyi. You can put together an excellent light with samsung or bridgelux strips and save ~30%.

    Help me pick my LED

    Phlizon makes several models so I'm sure you can find one to fit your other space. The Phlizons do seem to lack UVA and far red enhancement, but they grow killer weed, and are relatively inexpensive.

    SOG - how many days veg, what size pot for clones?

    Yeah, that will work; you end up with ~42W/sqft so you're on target. 30 days of veg at half wattage should be fine, as long as your canopy is 70% full when you go to flowering schedule at full wattage.
