I am thinking that I will use the space bucket for seedlings/early vegging and then eventually switch to the tent mid veg or start of flower.

Yep, that's exactly what I did! Put it in the space bucket. I planted another one at the same time and it is doing better. Hoping that will help it bounce back.

So far, so good! My first grow is loving it!

This is the exact one I got. I got it pre-assembled because DIY scares me. http://timbergrowlights.com/200-watt-citizen-clu048-square-framework/

I know, right? :? I am wondering if maybe they had too much room/light. I had them in solo cups in a 2.7x2.7 tent with 200w cob at about 40%.

My first grow was/is in a Space Bucket with 4x CFLs that is ending in a 2.7x2.7 tent with 200w citizen cob. That's looking fantastic. Then comes this White Widow. Her lower leaves have been a little brown and crispy for about a week and a half now. I tried flushing her with PH balanced water...

I recently bought this: http://timbergrowlights.com/200-watt-citizen-clu048-square-framework/#product-details and it comes with a dimmer on it. What intensity should I have it on for veg and which for flower? Should I always have it at like half?

Hey friends. If you were switching from a CFL Spacebucket setup with 4x Philips 433557 23W 6500K CFL bulbs to a 200w actual COB setup in a 2.5x2.5 grow tent, is there anything specific I would need to be careful of? Currently the plant is into almost 4 weeks into veg. Also, what would be the...

You were actually right, haha. The tent I ordered wouldn't fit the length of the linear model, so I had to pay more and get the square one. I also bought another tent that is 2.5x2.5-ish and will return the other one.

Thanks for the advice man! Ha, no worries! I appreciate the input! I think further down the road this might turn into a vegging tent anyways, so I might be able to upgrade at that point.

I actually ordered the linear one, not square. I had already went over budget by 60$ and it was $20 more expensive, lol. Would it be worthwhile? I already changed my order to include the mount, they're going to hate me when I change it again. :eyesmoke:

That does sound interesting! I have been reading about scrog and was actually thinking about trying it. In a grow tent, how much height would you need for non-scrog? The tent I was looking at is 5 ft tall.

I asked the rep at Timber what size the light would cover and they said 6 square feet. That's a good point though, it would be nice to have room on the sides! Is there any downfall to doing this?

Noted! I have been learning so much. This forum and you guys have been invaluable.

Great, thanks!
