    How far away with an LEC?

    Okay...I thought since they were so young and they are short autoflower genetics (2 feet) that 3 feet was good. I didn't want to harm the newborns.

    How far away with an LEC?

    I've got some newborn White Widow auto seedlings. I have my Sun System 315W LEC at about 3 feet from them in a 3x3 tent. Is that about right? Should I drop it down when they get bigger? When and how close? Thanks

    Looking for a Bluetooth temp/rh gauge

    One that works on an Android phone. I have one but it doesn't work with my phone only with the main gauge.

    My T5HO or my 315w LEC?

    I just talked to my hydro store guy again. He said place then around the outer edge of the tent, raise the LEC all the way to the top of tent, and then if they handle it after a day or two lower it a foot every day until 18" or so. He said getting them used to the spectrum of this bulb early is...

    My T5HO or my 315w LEC?

    A couple of points.... These are 2 foot bulbs. I just checked my meter and both together are pulling a total of 154W. Also these are autoflower plants. I think I can grow 5 easy in this space. At least 4 like my last grow.

    My T5HO or my 315w LEC?

    I have 2 fixtures. They are 2' x 4 bulbs each. Under each are 3 three gallon fabric pots. 5 have sprouted so far. My last grow went fairly well for a Mars LED grow. I left them under the T5HO until they were about a foot or so tall in that grow. I now have a 3x3 Gorilla tent, bigger exhaust fan...

    My T5HO or my 315w LEC?

    My question remains...When should I go over to the 315? Right now I'm saving electricity but would they do better as sprouts under the LEC?

    My T5HO or my 315w LEC?

    Just got off the phone from my local hydro store. He said the 3100K from start to finish is fine. Customers who have tried the 4200K then switching over to the 3100K haven't noticed anymore results than just using the 3100K start to finish.

    My T5HO or my 315w LEC?

    Okay I will. Since they are autoflowers should I switch the bulb at signs of preflower? thanks

    My T5HO or my 315w LEC?

    My White Widows are popping! I have a new Sun System 315W LEC and was wondering how soon I should use it. These are autoflower WW. Right now they are under my T5HO. Thanks.

    Which is quieter?

    I have my exhaust on a Ranco ETC thermostat. It's nice.

    Which is quieter?

    Hooking up my 6" carbon Phresh filter to my 6" Hyper Fan and out the ceiling. Should I place the inline fan outside the Gorilla tent between the ceiling and the top of the tent or attach it to the filter inside the tent then 90 degree out?

    Stopping light at tent intake vent

    I just got a 3x3 Gorilla tent. I'll be running a 6" Hyper Fan 315 cfm for exhaust. How do I setup the intake port to not restrict flow, filter the air, and prevent light leaks? I had a system down for my closet but not the tent. My first one.

    Outside diameter of a Phresh 6" Skinny?

    That's not the "Skinny" model 701300. I got my answer from Phresh a little while ago. 6 1/8" dia.

    Outside diameter of a Phresh 6" Skinny?

    Specifically the 6x24 model 701300. You'd think it would be listed on their website but no. And no phone number. ON EDIT...They contacted me via email. It's 6 1/8th inches across. That is skinny!

    Max temps for grow space?

    One of my biggest mistakes learning indoor growing is under ventilating. I'm still playing catchup. I've settled now on a 6" Hyper Fan @ 315 cfm, a 6" "Skinny" Phresh filter, and 1 sq ft of passive intake. I'll be testing out soon.

    Air intake question

    I found this. A 300 cfm fan needs the equivalent of 1 sq ft of intake. http://www.greenpassion.org/topic/16793-what-size-vent-fan-do-i-need-and-intake-area-size/

    Autos and light

    Since autos are not photo dependant I assume that some ambient light entering the grow space during lights off is okay? Or do they need absolute dark also?
