Wth No one ever talked about the advantage of not having to buy a new bulb every grow. How does that factor in to your watts to weight ratio :P On the other side, bulbs are pretty inexpensive. Also if your led just happens to be a bad model (not the 14,000+ led life expected) you may find...

sub'd Alot of people say ultrasonic humidifiers put out alot of heat. Or is too fine of mist and encourages root hairs? I was thinking of just adding one to my diy soakaponics w/ sprinkler heads for some variation in droplet size. Maybe just twice a day or something. Im interested to see what...
