    New run - Black Gorilla

    I used a 31 lb kitty litter bucket - not sure how many gallon those are. Are you referring to the paint strainer he uses? Honestly, I just skipped that part - it didn't really seem necessary. A little bit of perlite came out of the spout initially, but not very much. After that very little came out.

    Outrageous claims?

    And at less than half the cost.

    I got the idea from this video: Its kinda long but lots of good info.

    DIY with Quantum Boards

    Thats all well and good to know, but the power company bills you for volt/amps (apparent power), regardless of your power factor. Thats why large industrial users will often install capacitor banks near large inductive loads to get their power factor as close to 1.0 as possible.

    New run - Black Gorilla

    And we have female confirmation! Into the large container she goes and back under 24/0 light for another 2-4 weeks. I trimmed off four of the upper fan leaves for better light penetration. Now the fun begins.

    VIPARSPECTRA???

    Plant count for one thing - my state limits plant count to 4. So if I want to stay legal I can't do a SOG style grow. As to Veg time, well - it depends. That particular plant vegged for 63 days (and most would consider that a long time), but that was because I topped it multiple times to do a...

    VIPARSPECTRA???

    Mythbuster #1: https://imgur.com/9Muh5am Growing under 3000K Samsung strips. Not stretching. Mythbuster #2: https://imgur.com/rC6B053 Flowered under 4000K strips, yielded over half a pound. Truth is there really just isn't a huge difference between them - some difference, yes but not a lot.

    Final tally

    1st place - BGT and his Cleatus - Definitely an ugly duckling story. 2nd place - Myself. Despite PH issues midway, she finished strong. 3rd place - Hybridway - handicapped himself but still finished strong.

    Drivers and LED F series/H inFlux strips - best choices ??

    I would do a ten of the double row F series 44", or 20 of the H-influx L09 strips.

    Drivers and LED F series/H inFlux strips - best choices ??

    If the extra cost is not an issue, I would do the H-influx strips but with 2 of the HLG-480's. I like balance.

    Multiple Used VirsaSpectra LEDs extra cheap- worth it?

    I'd pass. Used blurples are not worth $100 each, not in my book. For $500 you can get a couple of 600W HPS lights, or some strip lights or quantum board setups.

    New run - Black Gorilla

    Its on a timer, but there's been times I've left it running for a couple of days with no ill effects. The outlet elbow keeps it at a relatively constant level unless they drink faster than I top it off.

    New run - Black Gorilla

    Yeah, same method just a bigger container. I'm not sure of the pump size, its a small one, maybe 60 GPH? I have found this method to be amazingly easy and trouble free so far(knock on wood). Just mix up a couple bottle of nutes, and keep the recycling reservoir full. I usually top it off once...

    4x2 Flowering ALL HELP APPRECIATED

    I tried strips as well - problem I had is they are too subjective.
