180 watt cheapo led light that I got a really good deal on. I'm not a "believer" just yet but so far they seem to be doing well. I have noticed they do not have the penetration or footprint that I'd like. I've used nothing but hids since the late 90's so its a chance for me to get into something new.
It gets so hot here. I would really like led's to work. So I was hoping......

Same here, when the wifey gave me the ok to get another tent I had to factor in heat. I don't think I would be able to add another hid in that room and keep the temps right.

This pic is from last night, they are both bubblegum from 00 seeds, been under the LEDs for 4 weeks

The temp so far has been around 75

I've spent around 2g's this year upgrading my equipment, I'm fucking done spending money! (hopefully)

I'm using led's and they work good for me. The first plant I ever pulled 8 zips from was under a led and that's enough proof for me. It was in the corner of my flower room so it did get a little light off the 1000 hps but mostly just led and it was in a 7 gal fabric pot (fyi).

I've been wanting to try LED so I ordered this last week, should be here by Thurs.
TaoTronics® TT-GL05 UFO Led Grow Light 90W For Plant Growing Germinating Flowing Seeding (45*3W, 135W Theoretically)*




This and a 100W CFL should do well in the Love shack (breeding tent)

Why does Texas have no basements?

They're all slab foundations. Basically meaning a slab of concrete they build your shit on. Some have basements (they've found bunkers and fall out shelters and shit around town in some) but it's incredibly rare and very expensive. I assume it's true but I've always heard it's because the ground is so rocky they can't adequately dig into it- but people have inground pools and shit so somebody's been lying to
me.

Anyway take a look around Austin sometime and you'll see every driveway full of cars.... Because they have no basements their garages are either full of all their shit or they've renovated their garage to be a living space.
not cannabis related, but i just found some romenseco broccoli i want to grow, stuff looks amazing..
I've grown it before. Pretty cool looking, tastes just like cauliflower and retains color after cooked. Purple cauliflower is pretty cool too but color bleeds a lot more unless is lightly steamed.

This is all your fault. I tried not to give in.

If you look you can see @Growan (nice ass shot), and a few others.

How big is the love shack? let me know when you get it and how it works out for you.

I use 4 55w (actual) cfl's in 2700k one in each corner to supplement the 2 180's (109w draw each) in a 2x4 tent.

Edit: forgot to quote C2G

3X3X4 ft. Have just a 100W 4 2ft CFL right now, then the LED. I've used the Love Shack to sex plants; take a clone from seedling, then sex the plant. It's now a breeding tent
