    How do I calculate the output of LEDs in lumens?

    Shit man, the more research I put into it, the more I realize the reason the good LED fixtures cost so much. Maybe 2 500W lamps would be a better idea...

    Day 27 of flowering under MH. Should I still switch to HPS?

    Okay so with a tight budget in mind, this should work for me, correct? http://cgi.ebay.com/1-400W-UltraGrow-Superlux-Hydroponics-MH-HPS-/150438102062?cmd=ViewItem&pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2306cf442e

    Day 27 of flowering under MH. Should I still switch to HPS?

    I am on day 27 of flowering, and my plants are still under a 400W MH. I heard that the buds may turn out more stretched out under the MH, but they're looking like once they fully fill out, they could be okay. Would it be worth it to invest in the HPS still, or should I just concentrate on the...

    How do I calculate the output of LEDs in lumens?

    Okay thank you for the good info. I am convinced that there is a way to make my own 4 or 5 hundred watt LED setup for less than $1800 lol. Any help is greatly appreciated. Maybe we can all piece a DIY together to help others work on a low budget. BTW the tent that I plan on using measures 98"W x...

    How do I calculate the output of LEDs in lumens?

    Well dammit I am in Chico right now, and I have that site bookmarked at home. I will let you know ASAP, because I don't mean to toot my own horn, but I think I'd be a savage if I could make a 450W LED setup for $300. I'm an electrician, so when I order them, mount and wire them, I'll make a...

    This looks like it has a lot of potential man. I plan on making something similar with one of those horizontal freezers soon, so I'm gonna subscribe. Good luck!

    My Grow Room Idea [pictures]

    I believe you're going to run into problems with temperature and humidity with a setup like that. Is that your only option?

    How do I calculate the output of LEDs in lumens?

    Okay, so last night I was looking at some LED fixtures online that are 19.5" in length, cost $10 each and come with 30 .5W LEDs of your color choice. I was thinking that 30 of them (20 red and 10 blue) at 15W each would run 450W and put out tons of light, hopefully a great value for only $300...

    How do I calculate the output of LEDs in lumens?

    I'm looking into making my own LED setup of sorts for my next grow. Every LED I look at gives an output rating in mCd, but no hint as to the output in lumens. The grow space is going to be approx. 36 sqft and I want to put out as many lumens/sqft as possible using around 500W of energy. Any info...

    Day 22 of flowering purple urkle. Advice or input?

    Ok, so HPS asap, and how exactly do I add the molasses to the water? Just straight stir it in with the nutrients? Maybe when I get my HPS I will run both lamps to try to get more light to them...

    Day 22 of flowering purple urkle. Advice or input?

    Hello everyone. I'm on day 22 of flowering 11 purple urkle clones. They are still under a 400W MH, soon to be under an HPS. They get water and 1.75tsp/gal of Sensi Bloom every other day. This is my first grow, and I am just wondering what to expect in the last few weeks of my cycle. Any tricks...

    A little advice?

    Yeah, I definitely want to be able to do that, but unfortunately, the closet they are in just doesn't allow for it :-/. The tub is 3' by 2', so I am actually working with 6 sq ft, but that still isn't enough. Quite a pickle I'm in here, lol. I guess I'll just have to hope for the best, and if...

    A little advice?

    Yeah, I'm not running SOG. I did top the plants, so there are about 30 chutes packed in there. I'm just curious as to whether once they start flowering, if it will be too dense in there for some of the plants to get light. Would switching the plants into a different larger tub harm the roots too...
