I've had some issues getting seeds to South East Asia - e.g. Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam. I used to have no issues, but now a lot of sellers won't ship here :( If anyone know of any specific seed banks that will do stealth shipments to these countries, feel free to enlighten me.

Are you bloody friggin' serious there mate ??? Can you back it up with some pictures perhaps? I now literally can not wait to get mine ! ! ! Edit: No worries, am looking on "Another XXX" thread . . .

Well since Arrow Asia will only sell 100 pieces at the time, I will go with Kingbrite, UNLESS they give me a sample size - Arrow Asia mentioned they could sell me 3 pieces as a sample, but I have yet to confirm this. Kingbrite will sell me these at 36.5$/piece for 1- pieces or below. At 100...

You're right I think, though I haven't got a quote from Kingbrite yet on the AD30G At Arrow it's CXB3070-0000-000N0HAD30G @ $27/pcs SPQ/MOQ 100pcs, which is too many. However, Kingbrite will do even only 2 COBs, which would enable me to only buy what I need, in stead of 100 COBs... I'm not...

1st a Very Nice thread - special thanks to Supra and Mr. Flux and many others for the invaluable information! I'm located in SEA and have been given the following offer from Arrow Asia: CXB3070-0000-000N0HAD30H @ $31.5/pcs SPQ/MOQ 100pcs CXB3070-0000-000N0HAD30G @ $27/pcs SPQ/MOQ 100pcs...

I'm using the sun and it's only one plant flowering - unfortunately it's more than 40 degree Celsius on most days, for at least the 3 hours around noon (maxed out at 43 degree Celsius yesterday). I'm waiting another week and then I'll see if I can't get a magnifying glass somewhere...

So, I agree that it doesn't look like it's ready, BUT keep in mind that this is a plant that has recovered from heavy damage (50% estimated root loss from last transplant + 60%+ foliage lost to pesticide and more recently from heat) and it hardly has any leaves left - I added a picture of the...

I will add some more detailed pictures if I can tomorrow when the lights back...

It's not exactly my first grow, but I have a bad tendency to harvest them early and my endoscope broke and I haven't got a magnifying glass and so here goes - is this lady done yet? It's an OGK mother plant that lost half its root to untreated coco coir and also suffered from heavy...

OK, so looks like mine were actually flowering due to a power cut that confused them and showing pre flowers since they're fairly old plants. I let one flower and re-vegged two and am successfully using a 20watt Flood LED from keeping them from flowering, without problems now.

I have some similar issues, as I'm growing in tropical conditions where the longest day of the year is 12:30h+ and the shortest 11:20h or so. I start my plants inside, but would much prefer to go 100% outside, as the sun is great and strong and the weather hot (probably too hot, with dry season...

Well apart from the actual sun rise and set actually hitting the plants, since they're outside, the LED is Warm White and so full spectrum and there should be some Red and Yellow light there as well.

That works unless I'm making big plants, which would be the plan here. Anyhow, I found a few growers using flood led lights successfully for growing, though mostly vegetatively. The point here though, is that the lamp is merely there to prevent them from flowering, not really to make them...

Thanx for the info - 2100 and 1500 lumens per square feet isn't much. I get in excess of 8000 PAR lumens from my LED at 2 meters distance for example (I keep them 50-150cm over the plants when inside)... This should be easy enough for a 20-30watt spot to achieve, I just don't know the proper...

I'm planning to set up an out-door grow on my balcony and around here it's 12h/12h give or take an hour, year long. To get bigger plants, I want to put an out door spot light on them, with a timer, to add 4-6 hours of light per day, with the sole purpose of keeping them from flowering. I heard...
