Need some advice here..

Hello all...
I am going to do my third grow...
I've grown super skunk and northen ligths auto with cfl and i've done quite well (30-35 dryed per plant)
Anyway i want to move forward and i am planing to do some investment...
So my first thought is that i am not going to plant any auto again...i will try a normal strain...
I have 1square meter diy grow box..
The first investment i whould like to do is buy a LED panel...
I've heared that LED is perfect for growing..and it is worth the investment as the are need electricity,no heat produced,more lifetime etc...
How many watts whould it be good for my grow box?
Can u suggest any good LED panel with around 300-350$?
The second movement i am planing is to grow hydro..I have not done this before so could somebody give me some advice what equipment should i buy to grow with hydroponics?
I am aiming on the biggest yield so if any experienced growers that grow with hydro can give me some advice on what equipment should i use for my grow box it whould be really helpfull...
Finally i am looking for some high yield strains...
I've read a lot that big bud has some high yield...any other advice or any experince growing big bud whould be also helpfull..
Thanks in advnace for your answers...
Happy to join you community..:)

If you're asking for opinions......

..... I have never grown in hydro....as I see this as a "Rubes Goldberg" way of growing a plant. Feeding and water a plant in my opinion should be very easy, very inexpensive, and has the ability to buffer most grower's mistakes...I like soil.

And while I'm not being very useful here...I can't help you with the LED's. They'd be a great light for your space though.

I can help you a bunch as far as strains that yield out nicely. Anyone that has read my journals can attest to just about anything Kannabia Seeds grows.



I averaged over 6 ounces a plant with most of my Kannabia strains. This was a 7.75 ounce Mataro Blue plant. Mataro Blue is on several top THC list too.

I grow under one Area51 Sgs160. I am pushing its limits in a similar sized area. I keep 3-4 plants under it. Yield is not up to par with stuff I read on the site, but plenty to keep me happy.

I topped once on this plant, and did an Uncle Ben's topping (4 tops) on a few others.

I've compared topped to not-topped, and topping at least once always yields better.

This is good to hear. I have a Kannabia Original Berry picked for my next grow. Nice plant!

I will agree with you. I like to top one time. Especially with Kannabia gear. Thier strains are very lush. This is an led grow in a 4'×4'×6' room. Aphrodite
