If I buy HLG it will probably be a kit.

HLG seems to be the most highly recommended light for sure. Thanks.

The wonderful growers here talked me out of buying a budget light. For my 32x32x63" I need about 225-275w. I need to keep it under $500 USD. I have looked into HLG and Optic 1. Are there any other lights that use the top bin horticulture diodes that any one would suggest? The Optic 1...

Also the first time I had them were in my seedling cups when I sprouted and I didn't lose any of the seeds, they were super healthy.

I don't know how to control them in autopots or if it is necessary. What I know is.. Springtails are one of the most abundant animals on Earth, they could have been chilling in the coco or you have a damp location nearby. They are somewhere in most houses. I've had them in new bags of FF and...

Switched the lights off. Going to harvest tomorrow. Plenty I could have done to improve. Being sick first couple weeks of flower threw it off. Will try to snap a few pics after I pull some leaves off tomorrow. I left some lower stuff go for bubble.

You have garden soil, that isn't meant to be in pots. I never used it before but I still say it's the soil. Other than that if it is due to your outdoor conditions others would know better.

Are you saying that they stop growing when you plant the peat pod into your soil? If that soil was too hot the plant would be dark green. You can start in Jiffy but you have to transplant into hot soil eventually. If that is low grade soil then that is your problem, even worse if it is used...

What soil are you using? I used some cheap stuff from DG my girlfriend bought to starts seeds and they did the same thing. I replanted them in HF and they were twice as big in a week. Is that plant outdoors?

I really like Fox Farm Ocean Forest and Happy Frog.

I have some 2.5 weeks old that are bigger than that. Indoor under t5.

I think it is just the IR diodes. I thought there were only 2. I'm going to start saving for light upgrade anyways. Can't decide when to harvest. 2 look done, 2 look like they need a week. Wish I had more space to dry in. Overall I feel like I should have ok weight, not the biggest tops, but...

Mars Hydro gives different info on thier website then on Amazon It says 2x2 on the website and 2.5x2.5 on Amazon. The par charts also differ dramatically. I think I might seriously consider HLG now. Def looks better than the Vipar. I still think Vipar made a good starter light and I'm not...

I'll def check out HLG since they are so highly recommended.

I was hoping the Mars Hydro TS 1000 was as good as they claim. It would be cool to go down in watts and get improvements instead of up in watts. I might still consider the TS 2000. I actually don't need a light right now but at that price for those improvements, def would have purchased right...

Great info guys. I like plug and play, DIY sounds like work to me. Everytime I look at HLG I feel like my bank account should be going up not down. :eyesmoke: I'm in no hurry so maybe I will just start saving for top end lighting.

My 32x32 is for flower, Just big enough for me. What lights do you use for bloom? What size space? What watt per sq ft range would you say is good for a Quantum Board as opposed to other LEDs in general, would you say they are significantly more efficient? Or is it hype?

I'm not trying to buy a light right away I'm researching this tech. Both are on Amazon, exact same price, are intended for the same size space, and have similar ratings. I'm not trying to search for opinions on everyone's favorite light. I figured this would be a light people commonly had tried...

Yeah and it makes it hard to follow. I don't know if it is legit going to flower what they say or if they are skimping me on something. That's why I'm having trouble believing I can flower a 32x32 with 150w. If it is legit as good as the Vipar 600 then I would choose it. That is a hell of an...

Thanks for the advice, if Viparspectra is as bad as everyone says, I'm not going to know what to do when I get a good light. I've been running Viparspectra 450 for over 2 years in my 32x32, it's rated for 24x24. I usually boost it with a 50 watt blurp when it is cool enough.
