Stronly considering 2
HLG 550 V2 LED Grow Light. One 3000k and one 4000k i gotta 4x8 i was gunna put the 3000k hlg with 2 galaxy hydro in the 4x8. Those 2 galaxy hydro are a type of blurples with uv. For my flower tent. And i have a 5x5 tent i was gunna put one 4000k hlg 550 v2 for veg. I also have a 3rd tent for a mother and cloneing station. Just those 2 lights is about 1700 dollars. But the good thing would be if there was a problem the qb could be replace pretty easyly. I know i should just get a dyi kit but i dont have alotta time. So check em out. Ive been studieing alot on organic super soil and how to add amements. Do u grow in soil or hydro?

I do hydro bro, but sounds like a legit setup, plenty of light that's for sure for the perpetual.

Thank you bro. Ive been studying so hard. Was gunna do hydro. It grow fast in hydro. But if i can get this soil crap figgured out. I would save alotta energy from all the pumps. Air compressors. And just have water feedings like everyother day. And maybe one compost tea feeding in the middle of flower. Top dress once in flower. But another key is pest preventive measures. Ill have like 4 things that will kill them organically. Plus i got those ac infinity inline fans that are smart kinda. Good air flow cuts down on bug problems aswell. Shit havent play video games in 4month. And i love video game. But not as much as haveing a bad ass garden. All because someone sold me some bunk verson of my favorite green. Now i got a full on hobbie.

See u got the quantum board. Ive been going mad trying to find high quality lights that can last. Whats the likelyhood of your lights to crap out.
Click to expand...
You came to the right place, just ask if you want to know where the quality is. It's very unlikely that an HLG QB will crap out. The new boards are made by Samsung and they use a Mean Well HLG drivers, all quality stuff. Some of the better lights.....

Yes straight coco and perlite brother. Coco isn't hydro, its still media and behaves like soil just much better to control nutes and hard to over water.

Ive been doing some so study on coco. And may have some question. A. Ive read that you wanna put cal mag in the water when you rehydrate a brick of coco. But i cant tell how much to start it out with. 2. There are alotta ways to use coco. But how often do you water/feed it Personally? 3. Ive read that if i get a powder nuturents thats not organic. Its more cost efficient and not paying for mostly water. Would you recommend it? 4. Dose flushing really work. Dose your end product taste as fire in the end? Im just a rookie and i. Really appreciate your advice.

Thanks King......4x4 area in flower......I started the light at about 4.5 feet from the plants and let them grow towards the light.....day 22 since the flip stretch almost done and we are 22 inches above the canopy. I just finished up a massive defoliation yesterday with a little super croping and started up the CO2. Let the stacking begin!!!!
