That's one way to use the bathroom!!! What do you think one of those lights would do in a 2x2x3 tent? Would it burn my plants up?
Yeah haha, I just water them in the tub then they go back in the tent. For a 2x2 I think 450w would be a little much but not 100% sure. You could always use the 450w fixture but dim it down to what the plants can handle. With my cob set up, I can dim from 10w - 450w.

Not the whole thing, just two of the lights...

Depends on how hard you run the lights, If you ran 2 cobs at 50w each it might be enough for a plant or two in a 2x2. You can always go with 4 cobs and run them softer for better efficiency.

Whoops, just saw that your tent is only 3 ft tall, they might be a little too intense once the plants grew a bit taller , you can always go with quantum boards, pretty much the same thing as cob but instead of intensity, you get coverage, I have a qb 288 at 135w in my 2x2 and it does fine.

The NL is Bulking up quite a bit and getting super frosty . I don’t really know how long it has left, I’ve heard people harvest at day 65 and others at day 95 so I don’t really know. I am picking up a x100 loupe tomorrow, but I’m just wondering when I should start the flush. If it is a quick finisher, day 65 is in 19 days. Anyone have any thoughts on how long it might have left? Haha thanks

Day 48, tomorrow will be the end of week 7 from seed. Thinking about giving it one more week of nutes, then a flush week, then chopping her down at the end of week 9. Any input or advice ? Thanks guys

So i just got into leds and yesterday learned about COBs. Do they run less hot then mars hydro or galaxyhydro led lights? Its hard to beat 75 bucks for a light that costs 25 bucks for growing autos till harvest.

Also, im just starting with hempy buckets. I want to use 2 (u got 5), would it be possible to stick a hose from the first into the second and have the excess water go into the second one. then collect the runoff from an exit on the second bucket? For you the exit would be the 5th bucket. I figure maybe it would be easier to collect one runoff instead of 2 (5 in ur case)

Let me know your thoughts and some info on COBs when you can!
With his setup, less hot than mars hydro wich is active cooling and still warmer than cob, 75$ is a good price for a little grow , if you want yields like hps you have to look for cob or qb board, mars hydro is décent but i strongly suggest you to invest in cob or qb for 100$ more you will have very decent qb setup or cob that will give you way better yields and fuck that purple light, the white spectrum is better for my eyes lol

Alright guys, so I chopped the NL today, about a week or 2 earlier then I was planning because of lack of space and she was the farthest along. She smells really good, almost like grapefruit. The Girl Scout cookies is at my friends house flowering, again, because of lack of space in the tent. The Dark Devil has really taken off, it is by far the frostiest one of the bunch, and smells like pure gasoline. I’ll let you guys know the weight of the NL in a few days, and start the cure.
From now on the only live plants will be the Dark devil and a green crack that is about to start flowering.
