Solid, there's the answer i was lookin for. looks like it's time to get some cheap-o cfls! Thanks for the info guys

So, if I bought one of these bulbs, would it provide enough light for a single plant in that space? I'm not trying to buy more than one of these things, so if one isn't enough I'll look into other sources of lights.

Hey all, I have a quick question about a specific bulb which can be found here: http://www.superbrightleds.com/moreinfo/led-household-bulbs/10-watt-led-grow-bulb/623/1889/?utm_source=googlebase&utm_medium=base&utm_content=GB-RB&utm_campaign=GoogleBaseChild&gclid=CPmvkJCQsrUCFQThQgodM3kAuw If...

Awesome, thanks for all the advice guys. I'll start researching those techniques. That said, if anyone already knows of any helpful links to tutorials or videos, please get at me!

Sup dudes and dudets, I'm starting a grow in a home-made grow box. It's 4'x2'x2', but my light and my pot will leave me with about 3' of room for my plant to grow. I'm not tryin' to get a bigger grow box or anything, so for this situation, how should I grow my plant with these height...

Haha, yeah, I figured the answer would be in the thread but I'm way too lazy to sort through all that! :lol: I am looking for something cheap, but I don't want to sacrifice too much quality, so I'm willing to spend a little more if it's worth it. I'll check out those sites though, thanks man...

I also have another question for experienced LED users. What should I look for in an LED? I've heard I should stick to name brands since the LED grow industry is rather new, and there are less reliable knock-offs floating around. In terms of lumens/watts/brand/heat-sink/etc, what should I be...

Yeah, I sort of figured as much. This seed is a test seed, so it's not extremely important that it flourishes, I'm just using it to test my grow-box and get the kinks out. I'm saving up for a inline fan/carbon filter right now, but after that I'll start saving for a more quality LED.

Awesome, this is all great advice, thanks guys! I'll be transplanting soon so I'll get a new soil mix set up

Ok thanks, I'll look into those. I have plant nutrients for each stage of growth, so I think I should be ok nutrient-wise.

Hey guys, I'm a new grower, and I'm doing a test grow on a miscellaneous seed. I'm in the second week of sprout, and I've been using Peat Moss as my grow medium. However, I've noticed that Peat Moss is extremely absorbant, and never really seems to dry out. As a result, I'm really confused as to...

Sup guys! I'm a first time grower, and im trying to get up and running at low cost using a single LED bulb for a single plant. I'm using this low watt bulb http://www.superbrightleds.com/moreinfo/led-household-bulbs/10-watt-LED-grow-bulb/623/ Let me know what you guys think of this bulb, I'm...

Awesome man, thanks for all the info. I'll look into that ona mist for sure. As for the noise, I'll most likely just get the filter and see how it sounds, and then add insulation as necessary. Again, thanks for the info, props.

Also, hows the noise on one of those fans? Will it be audible through thin walls?

Awesome info guys, thanks a ton. Well this smell thing is really gonna be an issue, so I guess I'll have to throw down for a quality filter sooner or later... I like the looks of that fan-filter combo, might have to save up for that.
