    Hi, Playing with Hydro & Grow lights

    I am from the UK, but located in Asia, so no bud growing here. However, interested in hydroponics and LED Grow lights. When I built my first setup, these communities offered the best advice and gave me some real expert insight to hydro. I'm here to learn more. Glad to be part of the community.
