    Annoying humidifier light

    I had the same issue. Bought/returned 4 to Amazon before I landed on this guy. Not as big as some, but lasts about 16h on the "low" setting and keeps my 4X8 with 10 plants at about 60% for 24h. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07Q5TYPFQ/

    CptTripps' first grow journal.

    Not too big of an update, as I've been concentrating most of my time to my grow-room and getting it set up and cleaned while I'm on quarantine. (Link in my sig) 10 plants in the tent at this point, and I've only got room for 2 more that I'll start in a few weeks when some seeds arrive. All 10...

    Building my 4X8 Auto-grow tent/room

    Got my Lux meter today, so I thought I'd take some readings. I start the seedlings at the right side of the tent, and then move them to the left as they progress through Veg and into Flower. How do these readings look? I can move the lights up/down and control the output of the lights to make...

    What kind of light set up do I need for a 5x5 tent

    Those are bad-ass. outside of my budget for my tent, as I'd need 6 of them, but damn they're nice. That'll be what I "upgrade" to down the line. I have one of these in my 4X8 for 1/2 of the tent and it's fantastic. I've got 2 TSW2000s on the other half for seedlings and veg.

    Now I’m concerned, please help

    It looks too dry, if you ask me. There's a whole thread on keeping coco moist that I can't seem to find at the moment. Those are fantastic. I'm going to go pick them up for my 4X8 later today. Thanks for letting me know.

    Building my 4X8 Auto-grow tent/room

    I've been putting some thought into this today....because I've got nothing but time on my hands right now. I'm contemplating putting the exhaust fan in the drying tent on a timer that only runs 15min every 2h. That would keep the humidity above 55%, and move the smell on down the line into the...

    Building my 4X8 Auto-grow tent/room

    Yeah, that's why I have the 3X3 tent in the corner. It'll be used exclusively for drying. I have the 4" vent in there, and it vents the cold air into the 4X8 that also gets filtered before being pushed outside. Should control smell nicely, and dry my harvest out nice and slow. I'm in no rush...

    Building my 4X8 Auto-grow tent/room

    Upgrade day! Replaced the TSW2000 in the flower side with a TSW3000. More coverage, bigger footprint, and better LEDs and Drivers. I keep the one to the far-right up high for seedlings, then as they move down the line towards Flower the lights get lower/closer. I continue to be happy with the...

    Mara hydro tsw 2000 ts1000

    I had a single TSW2000 in my 3X3 and had to dial it down for Veg. It was cooking my plants at 100%. Great value for the money, if you ask me. I have a second TSW2000 and just added a TSW3000 to my 4X8. Here was my 3X3. The TSW2000 was perfect for it, if you ask me.

    Newbie with Clones!!

    Also, I just noticed your light is one of the ones with two switches "Veg and Bloom". Make sure they're both turned on all the time.

    Are you sure you didn't get CBD seeds? You may have just grown Hemp.

    Building my 4X8 Auto-grow tent/room

    Thought I'd take the quarantine time and put it to good use. Completely cleaned and reorganized everything. Still don't have the replacement light for the flower side yet, as Amazon is running behind on everything non essential right now. But in the meantime, everything is SUPER clean and...

    First time grower, looking forward to learning and growing

    If you bought it on Amazon like the pic you posted suggests, then yes, you can. Even without packaging they'll take it back. Super simple to return too. Invest in even a cheap purple light and you'll get better results than you will with that light. Or, you can just run it and see what...

    Hey this is my first grow

    Times HAVE changed, but there are a lot of basics covered in the book that kinda jumpstarted my knowledge. It was a $10 purchase on my Kindle that I read in about 48h. Like I said...kind of a jumpstart to get me pointed in the right direction. From there, the knowledge here brought me up to...

    The Great COVID-19 Grow Room/Tent Cleanup Thread

    Rather than start another post about how bad things are, how about the good stuff we've done to our grows? Since we're all pretty much stuck at home right now, how many people have used this time to clean out their grow room/tents? Upgrades? Reorganization that you've been putting off? Just a...
