    mr. nroth may have something different to add, but i'll tell you what i've learned about led growing: it's not a bad idea, but to do it the right way with 100% leds would require many times more leds than we have. we've got 12 cfls in there right now that are responsible for a majority of the...

    Oh yeah, I've been meaning to say... MiracleGro potting soil = :spew: At least by itself anyway. That stuff packs itself down and makes watering more difficult than it has to be. I don't have the experience to know what those time release fertilizer balls will do, though. That one will just be...

    So we put 6 lowryder 2's in the ground a few days ago, and they've now been above ground for a couple days. Got them in new and improved soil... Jungle Growth Professional Mix... apparently peat moss based, with about 25% perlite. Everything seems to be going well so far. Maybe nroth can be...

    With the new ventilation system (we recently switched out the fans, putting the larger one on ventilation duty...) the max temp in the closet dropped from 103 to 85. The lights turn on at 6am, and I just opened my closet at 10am and the temp was just 80. looks like the overheating problem is...

    I'm pretty sure the landlord is tearing down my apartment building after my lease is up at the end of July, or else I don't think I'm getting my deposit back... !!! lol. Even with the ventilation system we put in, the temp gets to 88-90 with the door closed while I'm not home for a few hours...

    Oh yeah... One more question I have is about the location of the plants themselves. We've been balancing the distance of the lights from the plants with the optimum lighted area with pretty good results, but I'm having to rotate the plants every few hours to keep them from growing all...

    I am the closet-keeper of this little experiment we've got going. This is my first time growing at the point we're at now... (I tried once before but an angry roommate let the cat into my closet to eat my plants before they got past young seedling stage.) I've got a couple questions that...
