Here's the thread.

I raised temps and humidity, which I never had to do with HPS, and it took all the defs and tox away. Amazing the difference it can make.

I never had humidity problems until I removed my HPS. Now. Don’t get me wrong. I was successfully growing in far from ideal 85-92 degrees f in the tent..... had 4 fans blowing under and over the canopy’s... anyway, it seemed the high heat “cooked off”. The excess humidity or something.

Now with the QBs and/or my interior humidity, and the mass number of plants I used to have in there.... fought 75 percent humdidity a lot.

Down to 51 percent now by adding heat to the tent.

What would you suggest?[/QUOTE]

Rapid rooters or root riots. They come in bags of fifty, thrir only downside...

Tip from S2C: put your seeds in a glas of water, the ones yhat dink are viable (can take up to 24-48 hrs, but usually sooner.

After they sink, i pop each into its iwn rr, stick thst into donething like this with a little water in the bottom and a dome on top (see amazon):

Do you think I have enough lighting for an effective 4x4 grow? Listen I know you’re trying to push your record of what 3lbs @700 watts.... I can’t do that. So please take that into consideration. I used to run HPS and really really am probably one of the last swear Byers of HPS. It worked amazing for me.

Anyway, now, my 4x4 has in it 4 qb 132 cranked at max, and a mars hydro ts-1000. It has some physical red lights to be seen. QBs are well....... super HD clear.

30-60 watts per sq ft is a general rule for white leds....

I gotta get me a setup like this, I want to get a nice 2x2x2 tent just for something like this so I can isolate my seedlings and clones later on.

Put a single hlg qb 96 elite in there with a driver that dims, get a lux meter and use lux to ppfd conversion factor to set intensity level at 100-200 ppfd for first 3 psirs of true leaves then follow this:
