I use some plastic totes for growing .. other things. I spraypaint them and it tends to stay on really well if you lightly buff them with sandpaper first (and then thoroughly rinse them to get the plastic dust off). Nice find!

Man, there was so much to learn about the first time around. I'll def make note of this for next time.

Just wanted to pop by and say thanks to everyone who helped... I had to put off my project for a few months due to some IRL issues, but... She's built. And she's a beast. One of my best friends moved next door a few months ago, he's an electrical engineer. I lugged my beast over to his house...

I have 5-way WAGOS! So i tie all the same ones together, and then attach a wire out of each wago to the plug?

Heyyyy, So I'm sitting here ALMOST FINISHED making this beast of a lighting setup. 12 citizen clu-048 1212's on an angled aluminum frame with three HLG 185H-C1400A drivers. The entire project, finding all the components and learning as I go took me weeks. I've managed to wire all the cobs to...

CO2 is something that definitely piques my interest, but I think for my first grow I'm going to focus on trying to keep my little ladies alive. :)

My mechanical skills are pretty nonexistant, haha. The DIY lighting project was the first time I've ever even held a drill. So--as simple as possible. I planned on doing a simple dwc in 3 gallon buckets. No ebb and flow, no large reservoir hooked up to anything. Unless I use one for working...

Thanks so much for your advice. :) My basement all-around is quite large too, so I don't think heat would be an issue--although cold in the winter probably will be. I'll just toss some prefilter on my tent intake port and hope that keeps out anything small and pesky. Where to erect my tents...

I'll take a look at intake/exhaust pipes and see what's available down there. If it has direct air to outside it'll be perfect then .: )

LoL duoq anyone?

So here's my plan: One 4x4 tent for vegging, one 5x5 for flowering, and a 2x4 for drying. The only question I have left at this moment is where to put them--I can use my gaming den upstairs (and move my stuff elsewhere) or put them in the basement. They both have pros and cons...

Crap. Good to know.

Thanks Jeeyah. : ). I'll keep this setup saved for my veg tent when I have a dedicated one.

Thanks much! I'll order a few of those drivers and save my old ones for the veg tent in the future.

Well, for my first grow it'll be for both. I planned on investing the dividends in to a second tent, one for veg, one for flower. Thanks for the advice on where to slap the 4-5k's! The only question remaining then is if the driver I suggested (185-H C1400) would fit my cobs at 1400ma. (3 of...

When you say drive harder, are you recommending the 1050 or 1400? Seems like I should double my wattage and run with 1400 then? Would the 185H-C1400 fit four of my cobs on it at 1400ma? According to https://www.rollitup.org/t/matching-drivers-and-cobs.883866/ it only fits 3.8 of the comparable...

Hey guys! I've spent the last few weeks trying to learn from the pros (GreenGene, Growmau5) and educate myself about LED's so I can have a decent shot at a nice DIY system. I've spent hours watching youtubes and reading but the amount of information available is monumental and there always...
