Dont steal the light... go buy one. How would you like it if someone stole your shit? Thats like the other post on here where a newbie asks where the best place is to steal weed... cmon man. we are a group of people trying to help eachother and you want to steal someones stuff. Got to another forum on stealing... dont bring that here.

I just joined tonight. Just what I had been searching for. You are some informative mother-fuckers, very wise smokers the likes of which I have never came across beforehand. My germinated seed broke soil today, I have it directly under a daylight 100w equivalent; 27w, pushing 1300 lumens and 5500k for the low price of $6.97. Once I am ready to triple its size I will most likely go back to Home Depot for the 150w soft white for flowering stage. Depending on size I might devise another set-up with more fluorescent bulbs. Came across striped seed out of kill sack. Stoked to say the least.

I guess the spirit of getting high and being cool has been replaced with something darker and sleazier.
