I think Cloudline automated inline fans are key in the winter. Lights out / nighttime is when I've always had issues with cold temps though. A little heater with a thermostat plus the Cloudlines has been keeping it cozy until the lights come back on. There is barely any swing between lights on and off.
I don't really have problems with lights out. I run my lights at night, and lights out is during the day. Power is a lot cheaper at night on my plan.
People will always think like that, Most modern ? Better, more expansive ? Better, bigger ? Better.
I run 1000 watt hps, eye hort and I’ll take the Pepsi challenge any day against led’s. I see led grows all day and I’m not blown away by any of it.
Good.
I used to run mine at night too, but that was because it was trying to get the day temp down to HPS levels. I switched them to turn on at 12pm once I realized I could jack the heat up, mainly because having the entire day to work made harvesting a lot less stressful.
They look the same as everyone else's grow.
I bet your highest power rate is less than my lowest rate. Power is super expensive out here. This is a special rate since I have an electric vehicle, and peak hours are higher than typical, but off-peak is the inverse:
I couldn't find any sort of info on my energy company's page. I don't think we have peak hours here.I bet your highest power rate is less than my lowest rate. Power is super expensive out here.

This is the more typical non-EV rate plan:

They also offer tiered rate plans out here, but I think it ends up being more expensive at the end of the month.
