Ah come on guys. 4 posts after I ask about sockets and no one can tell me? Help a cfl newbie out here.
what do you need to know dave ill do my best to answer it done a lot of experiments with cfl's..pppAh come on guys. 4 posts after I ask about sockets and no one can tell me? Help a cfl newbie out here.
and as for this qustion abput the larger cfl's yes you can run them off regular household 110-120 but the socket mogel is a lil larger then normal bulbs so you will need a socket adapter they run around 8to 10 bucks a piece..hope this helps..pppIts nice when you dont have to order everything online or from over priced hydro shops locally, but if you want to save $12 on that you can get it from well who else?

Appears to be the same item. I know they sell hydrofarm products, so probably the same.
Can you tell me if 125w CFLs can go in standard sockets? Im gonna pick up a cabinet for my next grow that has separate compartments that will be used for a mother, and a cloning station. CFL's would be a perfect fit for it.
Yep thats exactly what I needed to know. Thanks.and as for this qustion abput the larger cfl's yes you can run them off regular household 110-120 but the socket mogel is a lil larger then normal bulbs so you will need a socket adapter they run around 8to 10 bucks a piece..hope this helps..ppp

The best buy on carbons for vapor phase tretament (odor control) is to just buy bituminous carbon. It is a soft carbon but works better than the harder more expensive carbons. Here are a few listings on ebay. http://shop.ebay.com/?_from=R40&_trksid=p3984.m38.l1313&_nkw=bituminous+carbon&_sacat=See-All-Categoriesbest place to order loose activated carbon powder/granules, THAT WORK! that could be placed in a pipe, or custom made filter?
thanks

I got it for $42 shipped. Im a repeat customer, so they probably gave me more of a discount than you may get, but you'll still get X dollars off by just writing them and asking to buy it outside of EBAY. They save money, so they should give it to you a bit cheaper.
Its completely eliminated the smell I had from veg. All I smell is carbon coming out of the exhaust. Ill know in a few weeks just how good it is. Im 10 days into flowering 4 WW.
Its pretty well packed and well built.
I spent around $50 trying to build my own DIY carbon filter, and it didn't work for shit. Save yourself money and frustration of building your own. Its almost never as easy as the DIY's look.
you are correct ive already been growing this is my third just been useing cfl's the whole time decided to switch to hps and mh on this one..2 x blue mystic 2 x bubbleicious 2 x papaya and 1 x skunk 1 x northern lights..Ha. If you thinks thats huge, you should have seen my DIY carbon filter! This thing is much smaller in comparison. Im very happy with it. It looks like you bought a light set up from them as well if im not mistaken. Best of luck getting your grow set up. What is your strain of choice?
