My last order got seized by customs - I sent a pic of the box & the seizure letter.
I received a replacement order within a week with extra freebies.

I consider that pretty darn good service.
I don't consider that good service, if your a good seed bank, you aint gonna get your shit seized. On top of all that, i don't want my name and address on some list for investigation, shit i dont even comment on here without a proxy lol. You may call it paranoid i call it safe.

My state says I can grow 24 plants legally.
Fuck Customs.

So I have a question on lights.
So I can buy a 150w hps light cheaper or of the same value as building my own cfl. That may be the case. But if I can get more wattage than 150 wouldnt building a cfl light better?. I understand the hps has more penetration. But with cfl I can get closer to my plants.
Just curious on youll thoughts thanks....

For the small cab id go cfl that way you can spread your bulbs out in your fixture. I just put this together not to long ago.1412280577054.jpgBut i intend to build one that really rocks

Those are only (8)-23w 2700k-,(2)-33w 6400k. Thats only 316w but im getting more. You can lower them close to the plants but i like to let mine sit 5-6" to cover that square foot. 21,110 lumens just in that fixture. $27 12pk bulbs, $4 aluminum cylinder $12.60 for 6 adapter plugs, $10.00 for 6 splitters. $54.

So doing my research. Checked out northern lights from sensi seeds. They have quite a few types what am i looking for exactly.
Started looking at lights found quite a few brands and prices.
I saw 150w hps lights .
Floralux, htg has 1 i believe.
When chosen are there specifics I should consider.
And with regards to value. You say that you would spend the same amount of money on a hps light and making a cfl.
That may be right but wont I be able to produce more wattage for a cheaper price with cfl.
thanks in advance
I believe HPS is more efficient, but I could be wrong. HPS will also be safer due to the need to Jerry rig the CFLs.
Here is a super sweet light. I am almost reaching into my pocket. to buy one. This would rock your grow.

Get it with half red spectrum and half blue spectrum. This would be AWESOME. Very nice light distribution and this light is very very well priced compared to what I saw at Home D. There is a grower on here that grows killer plants using t5. This lamp will produce 8000 lumens for 100w. That's plenty to grow 1 plant even two.


I recommend this strain. It is autoflower. It was soooo easy to grow. All I did was plant it, water it, add a little nutes and in 70 days I had a real nice plant. People will argue about autos, but it was reallly fast and really problem free. It has a nice smell to it, nice chill smoke. http://www.herbiesheadshop.com/world-of-seeds-northern-light-x-big-bud-autoflowering-feminised-seeds-3544

Instead of an expensive carbon scrubber and vortex fan you might consider a holmes air purifier from Walmart. they move a lot of air as well as filter the smell. It won't filter as well as a good carbon filter such as a CanFan or Phresh, but it could do the job. I have one on my veg cab. I built it into the top. $40. something like this. just build it into the top of your cab. Fortify the filter with some fish aquarium carbon. http://www.walmart.com/ip/Honeywell-Table-Top-Air-Purifier-16200/10757537?action=product_interest&action_type=title&placement_id=irs_top&strategy=PWVUB&visitor_id=92630052250&category=0:1072864:133032:46324&client_guid=30634b8e-6df6-49d6-b954-61e7b8659475&config_id=2&parent_item_id=9189154&guid=a8b38128-980f-4432-a358-e09c95106942&bucket_id=irsbucketdefault&findingMethod=p13n

So let' see 40 bucks for fan and filter $70 for light plus soil and some small bottles of nutes. Not too shabby. and you would only be running 150 watts total I think.

Nirvana seeds is a good place for beginners. Cheap seeds and seeds come in weeks in very good stealth packaging. Attitude is the spot for better genetics though.

Looks like a good setup. I'd like to see more pics of your fixture. How did you build it?
Heres some ideas. I like to build so i just made me a little because i didnt have the money to finance a kick butt fixture so im keeping it simple ro complete my first grow. Im making another one for the last stage of flower. But check these out you can google homemade cfl fixtures.images-8.jpegimages-10.jpeg images-9.jpeg images-20.jpeg images-13.jpeg

True, fed trumps state - but the fed radar looks for much bigger fish than some chump running a cab or tent grow for personal stash.
Sometimes I think about things. Sometimes I am able to step outside of myself, out of normal life and I think.. "WTF???? There is a massive force out there that tells me I can't ingest, grow, sell, or give away a certain strain of plant that is not processed in any way?" Disobey and they come with guns, repelling out of helicopters and battering rams.. Go along with them and you get to live in a jail where they take away many of your liberties and you likely lose everything on the outside world. Resist even a little and you're a dead man. it's so strange... How about the hard-ons that get up every day, pump their tiny dicks, get jacked on coffee and go train to do this stuff, all while collecting a killer paycheck..

I guess the world's not perfect and not everything makes sense, but it's still a pretty good place to be :)
