Whatchu talkin' bout Willis? I chose CFL because I didn't have a good way of dealing with excess heat of HPS/MH. I use MG because I don't want to constantly fuck with nutes, it's easy to find, and the grow results are fantastic. As far as CFL not comparing to 1000w HPS, I'd bet you if you...

And I thought building my own grow box was a pain in the ass. Let me think... What if it rains? You will need a helacious car battery to support any decent amount of light. A car battery would run 400 watts about 10 minutes. How are you going to get rid of the excess dirt without anyone...

I agree with Serapis. Anyway... What is this my grow is bigger than yours shit? Shall we compare penis length and debate as to whether my dad can beat up your dad too? I think somebody needs to smoke a bowl. This ain't a contest man. Grow your shit in the manner that pleases you and then...

Oddly enough, I think he's right. I believe that MG is the CFL of soils. Why? Because you can have great success with both and they both have an undeserved bad rap. I grow in a combo MG potting soil/organics and perlite, under about 400watts of CFL. I almost never nute unless I see a...

Sad but true. I've found that being cheap in the beginning just means you end up spending twice as much. You'll have the cheap stuff sitting around gathering dust, and the good stuff you should've bought in the first place in use.

The odds are 12.5% that all three will be male. You have an 87.5% chance that at least one of the three are female.

That works for me.

You can use quiet muffin/computer fans, but you'll probably want to setup an exhaust for the hood and an exhaust for the carbon scrubber. The hood exhaust will go through and through, from outside to outside. The scrubber goes from inside to out, though if you are growing weed with real stank...

I use two 8" super quiet fans...I wouldn't use less than 110cfm for your 400hps and you can use a 110cfm for a carbon scrubber, but you are going to need to make it a bit larger for less back pressure.

Well there is that, but you can also stop the power spike when they turn on. I don't blow fuses, but the lights in the rest of the house dimmed slightly when everything turned on, so I split them up. Now startup isn't noticeable.

No it won't make any difference. The only way 4-6 minutes of extra light might hurt is if it's in the middle of the dark cycle. The plants respond to a significant decrease in light, not to a specific number of minutes of dark, within reason. I have lights on two timers offset by 15 minutes...

I will agree with you on that. Considering what seeds sell for, I probably threw away a billion dollars worth in my youth. Stealth shipping should be included in the price.

I was saying you as in the person deciding to purchase, not you as in you. If the first post didn't make that obvious, I'd hope the second one would. I'll try to be clearer next time. You have a long way to go in learning to win over customers. Good luck to you.

Just because my opinion is different from yours makes me a retard? Nice. I won't be ordering anything from you. I agree with bigv1976's approach, shop around, buy where you want, get the best deal you can. If you find a better, cheaper, faster, stealthier deal, go for it. If you think...

Not that you shouldn't use a PC power supply, but they are usually a couple of hundred watts. You really only need 10 or so. If you are watching your electric bill, every little bit counts.

Volts is Volts....if you have something that is 12Volt then no matter how many of them you have wired together they are still 12Volt. Like I said in the earlier post, get a 12V adapter that closely matches your total amps and connect the fans together.

Close...you already know the voltage is 12. You need to take a look at the fan(s) and find either the watts or amps. You need to find a 12v adapter that matches those total amps as closely as possible. For instance, I have three PC fans that draw .160 amps each. If I wire them together I get...

You can find fans that are .1 sones online. That sounds like a faint hum, if you even notice it. The problem with those fans is the CFM is usually pretty low. I have three that do 110cfm each and have no problem filtering air through a DIY carbon filter and cooling the room. I have a smaller...

After reading your post, yep, I'm gonna have to go with baked. Enjoy.

You should feel free to shop elsewhere then, right? You have plenty of options. Send your disapproval by not buying from them.
