I agree with you guys it’s a great place and it is probably the exact same product like you were saying Homie. I just don’t have 3-4 weeks to wait. Definitely when I get another tent or upgrade the light that’s exactly where I’ll go. Thanks fellas.

I was hesitant about it at first but it’s sooooo easy. And there are several videos that tell you all you need to know

Could you supply those, I remember years ago someone had a video on YouTube on all the wiring, and I can’t seem to find it for the OP

It would be difficult to find while I’m at work but look for one done by a dude with an Irish flag in the background

I totally understand brother. As long as you can chop a decent harvest, you have accomplished your goal. Growing is a sickness. Lol. Very costly sickness at that.

Would it be beneficial to add in an extra light during flower? If so what kind?

adding extra 660nm is nice helps alot and is really easy, UV can help as well.
did you settle on keeping the burple or decide HLG, ect?

UV like the UV blue fluorescent shop lights I have them under now? I landed on CRX Sunny 240w. I know you told me to run the hell away from it and I very well may regret it but we’re gonna give it a shot. If it’s no bueno then live and learn and make adjustments. Samsung diodes and the driver sold me on it. It gets here Monday too so perfect timing. Blurple arrives and gets the return label slapped on today lol

i would say run that no point in spending extra with that light, upgrade to better later.
also at worst if you did feel comfortable with DIY, some strips wouldnt hurt, and eventually you could just keep adding until you replaced that light

Cool. I think it will work just fine for my first grow. It’s better than running the blurple from what I can tell. And I am going to watch some videos and do some more reading before I jump in, but DIY is definitely something I’d like to do. If i didn’t have to replace my oven soon I would go ahead and get some boards.

If I don’t add anything additional, will the light be ok for veg and bloom? Desc says so but just curious.

Your doing fine. Imagine how many wish they even were where your at. It’s like anything, you will get better, and your equipment will too. The number one goal is to not have to buy herb from somebody else.

Also every fucking one of us, was once a newb. And most of us had to work from the bottom up. I started with a 600 watt hps in a hood, in a 4x4 tent, in my bedroom. Grew 2 autos in coco, and one in dwc. Got 5 ounces off just the dwc plant. But dried it to quick and it was pretty rough on the throat. But oh my I had at least harvested something. Years later I’m like this is so easy even a caveman could do it
