Okay...

It's been a long time for me but everyone has to start someplace.

This is a visual aid in how Plants use light.

Link < A good read.

So a lot of "light bulb light" is for our eyes and not a lot of it benefits a plant that needs to use the energy of light to grow.
Basically the link above can help folks get a basic understanding about lighting for plants.

That article refers to wave length. Basically this is a frequency of light and for the blue end it is a shorter wave length and for the red end it is a longer wave length.

I hope this helps a little.

Rest assured folks here are wanting to be correct and are generally helpful.
Be aware however that like any public forum the police are as comfortable here as a vet with no legs arguing politics all day so remember to not make any deals of any kind nor tell folks who and where you are.
Strip all photos of all identifying data before posting. In windows this is supposedly easy and you will have to look up how to on other platforms.

And if this is your first go round I sure hope you are in a state that won't put you in prison.
The last rule is remember it is all about the Benjamins for Po-Po so us as people are not their concern.

Lastly there is no shame in reading, watching and learning.

There's no way they're going to do anything but destroy the equipment. It's still illegal to grow at the federal level and that's what they go by.

With the feds it Seek and Destroy

.
And even in a state where you can have a medical garden they will still take it.

Also there is a thing called Equitable Sharing where the local po-po gets the Feds to take your property and splits the profits from selling is 80% for the state and 20% for the Feds.

What is the moral of the story you might ask?

The moral of the story is that the most harm Cannabis does to someone is getting busted for it.

Blue to red. As in nature. Hence generic blurple leds. Look for led of second generation and brand name. Amazing cheap strips lights out there when you learn K, Kelvin, temp or color rating of lights. Modern lights are an overwhelming issue that is not all that.

I suggest used adjustable "white" led's to get started. And 100W of that is about 700Watts of what you have there.

When I was speaking with this Agent, he said that they do not have nowhere near the storage to place and store them for an "auction", and besides, it can't be moved until the illegal operator has been prosecuted. So they just leave it. So, tons of commercial lights, dehuyes, feed systems, roller benches, etc all just sit there and rot. They just don't have the manpower to move and store the equipment.

There is a thing called "Equatable Sharing" this is where the Feds come into a State with a local invite and take your stuff and sell it or whatever and the State gets 80% and the Feds get 20%
The benefit of this is it gets around people being able to sue in State Court. They have to start at the Federal level.

Asset forfeiture is an evil when LEO can simply take what you have and in partner with the Federal peeps, you face a battle in court people can't afford.
Got to sue the Feds first and win then the sue the State and win and for what? A few thousand dollars in value of the stuff we own?
Lawyers cost a lot so it's like Nazi Brown shirts smerking at those they have their boots on.

Does anyone think our Law Enforcement are Honest players?
Seriously?
