So what part of the DIY led process do you think would be difficult. "considering you can solder and you match up the component ratings plus have sufficient heat dissipation with fans?

I def will build my own, I was planning to put at least four or six fans in the unit anyways. But i welcome any response to led's. What pushed me to build my own more than anything else was I couldnt find concrete evidence on which light was the best. Just one sites word over anothers promising...

I agree, but will i need the whites if im gonna be using a good amount of cfl's???? Thanks for the replies----we r finally getting somewhere.

by full spectrum i meant= all the spectrums that the plant uses. the reds and the blues for sure and whatever else they use. nothing else because it would be a complete waste of electricity and space that could be used for someother spectrum of value to the plant. I def want to have more red and...

Hey bro. Im not sure just yet. im hoping someone will come along and show me something that i've been missing or just havent worked out through google kung fu....lol. thus far, im looking at cree. I do know that I want a full spectrum and atleast 800 watts. Which would out perform at least 1500...

Again, since I wasnt clear the first time. Please do your homework before you reply to this thread. I realize that most people use hps or some form of hid and don't ever plan on being more efficient with the same results. I realize that this could be due to the high price of this relatively new...

Ok, I'm 110% sold on the led bit. I think its smarter, efficient, less heat. All the above so if you are here to down this please go to the next led chat. I am going to build my own at a fraction of the cost. I need to know which led components are the best. Plus what else is involved in this...

I'm looking into this myself. havent done that much homework on this but as far as i can tell there really efficient and low heat. They produce a much more favorable spectrum for plants. The spectrum goes up to a 660 i think, which is more red than a HID light can produce. So all in all, they...

So what org nutes should i go with for veg and flower? Im stuck at this!! Anyone?

Like I said. I have a walmart, tractor supply and lowes. I already checked with all the greenhouses and no one has an organic potting mix aside from Wally world. I paid 65 for ten bags of mg org choice soil and 78 for the oasis watering system you should check it out it has really good reviews...

I'm growing doc greenthumbs Iranian Auto outdoor. I havent even started them yet, but they are known for there sensitivity to nit. I have seen a lot of people run smart pots outdoors with great results. I can't remember where I seen it but they ran two clones from same mother. one in smart pot...

Please vote on the poll if you have used farm fox nutes. Thanks.

Just got ten 1.5 cu.ft bags of miracle grow organic choice potting soil and thinking about getting a package deal ($42.95) for all three nutes on greners.com. Anyone have any thoughts on this?? Oh yea, also getting 10 smart pots (10lbs) on that site too. The strain that I'm growing is sensitive...

LOL. So for the Guerilla growers couldnt you sprinkle pellets around (not crushed up) for a time release?

I'm gonna try tang dream and honey b. Does anyone know about honey b from barns. Some one mentioned 21 days from attitude? I would def order straight from the source or from some where else I hear they suck royally.
