What's up all! After a few months of lurking, I figured I'd finally poke my head outa the cyber shadows, introduce myself and Thank Everyone for all the information. My note book is full and marked up with highlighter, I have just about all the info I need.
Just nailing down some final details. I should be receiving my MMJ card in the mail any day now, and plan on Starting construction of my Grow room (10x10 split into two rooms) my next day off. I've just about narrowed down my Ballast selection, wondering if it would be worth it to spend a couple extra bucks on the lumatek over the digital greenhouse? Any feedback would be RAD!
Also wondering if uping my flowering room lighting to a 1000w hps over a 600w? but really its only covering a 5x5 area with about 6-8 grrls hanging out in there. So, is it gonna be worth the extra $$$ on the electric bill?
Then figuring out what 3 strains to start with, I'm like a kid in a candy store and have no clue where to start. Since I'm a complete newb (w/ a few close resources I can bug if shit gets real deep:dunce:) I'm looking for strains that tend to be a bit hardier and forgiving. I've narrowed down a few that I like, but seeing that I have a black belt in Indecisiveness that all can change next time I log in to my account.
I plan on starting a grow journal and trying to document as much of my first grow as possible, mainly to learn from my fuck-ups but also just to see the growth process and enjoy the gnarly buds that I grew myself.

I don't know about the other brand, but lumatek has a good warranty and it has a built in component to reduce RF interference. Also many 1000W ballasts can be dimmed so that you can reduce the electric bill and still have options.

Also another option is the Quantum T5 Badboy light setup for vegging and 600w HPS for flowering.


sooo many strains, so few dollars to spend....I guess that it depends a lot on which breeders you have locally
