Hi everyone, after reading reviews and all the good info here and elsewhere, we placed an order from SS. And got the mini caddy.
I must say of all the different people from phototron (yuck) to BCNL, ( who were also very professional, and honest, but I don't have the Caddilac pocket money) so this guy Larry over at Sunlight Sheds really was cool and took about 30-40 minutes going over all the options and whatnot. I just felt compelled to let anyone out there who was thinking of those Boxes from homegrown or anyone that wants a money order or check only, but then wants you to wait 8-10 weeks before sending it? What???? Who the heck would even do that? By then check has cleared and your calling 2 months later and they can still not even by thier own statement not have it even built, that is if u get them to call u back, and look, those are horror stories I read, so I am not bashing them, but I am bashing thier whole pay buy check or money order then a 2 1/2 month turnaround!
So the unit has not arrived so I cannot say it was perfect yet, to be fair, but so far it has been fun to do the research.
With that said does anyone have any words of advice for a newbie, I have unsexed carmelicious seeds I've been wanting to try.
Btw they (sunlight sheds) offered me the LED upgrade free, but it was due to this and other threads I opted to get the ballast vented hood and hoses with smoke/heat detector and HPS and MH due to you guys saying they are crap. I figured it was more expensive to buy all that stuff later, then the UFO later, that way I would have the stuff. I thought maybe some of you here could and would be more willing to help with the hps stuff then some wierd led light problem. Larry the salesman then offered in a few months if I wanted to try it (led) and didn't like it I could return it minus shipping, now that's the kind of company I want to deal with
