I recommend building you own hlg fixture with a dual slate and two of there new qb272 boards and a hlg-150h-54b so it’s dimmable. All you need is a trip to home depo or order online your length of 14-18guage wire I used extension cord from a hardware store 1.50 a foot or something. Some three way wago connectiors and wire strippers.I built both my first lights ever and they work great with help from hlg and many community members!
I have dual Diablo qb648 fixture powered buy the hlg-320h-c2100 but need to swap it out so it runs at it’s true 320watts but I plan to add a third qb648 for better coverage

haha no and it stands in here... just a bed room up stairs and built reflective wall for some reflective
I can't imagine growing in a tent . I do realize that some people have to , but what a pain in the ass . I'm spoiled , I've always had a shit-ton of room for growing. The reflective wall is a great touch .
 
you know those old lightbulbs that everybody had.well now every led lamp compares it self to that.you will buy a cfl thats 7W but it will glow the same as that old one 100W
ya that's what I was thinking.. they did alright with them can't complain. still going to spring for a good bar led grow light though

I remember you start this thread at the start, I was sceptical at 1st.

You have well and truly proved me and alot on here wrong as you have smashed this out the park with a basic set up.

Some with all the gadgets and latest tech dont get results like you..

Fair play.

Update with the yield when she's done
