    STAY AWAY FROM LED's!!!!!

    Wow, this thread is booming... And so is FootClans post count! :lol: I didn't read a lot of the arguing either, so I may have missed a bit as well. That is an interesting point. I see that when you purchase individual LEDs, they do give a Lumen output. Here is a 90W Cool White LED with a...

    STAY AWAY FROM LED's!!!!!

    Earlier in the thread, I mentioned my desire to build my own LED panel to test. In one forum (I linked it on the last page), a member said that the blue light spectrum enables the plant to control it's internodal length. What do your panels look like? What is the apprx. red:blue ratio?

    Deathstar?

    I know it's not likely that I will find it, so my efforts to get it will match that expectation. Basically, I'll ask a few people I know, and if nobody can help me, I'll just keep my eye out.

    Deathstar?

    I'll have to ask around then!

    Deathstar?

    I'm very interested in getting a hold of one of these clones... Where about in Oh are they? I grew up in NW PA, and lived in SE OH for a few years, so I make it back that way every so often. Any info would be helpful!

    I thought we had already been reminded of that courtesy... not even 12 hours ago... ;)

    First Memorable Stoner Moment

    Think we can get this thread going again? Last year, I saved a bunch of kief from my grinder, dumped it in the cut off corner of a ziplock, folded it up, wrapped it in saran wrap and put it under the foam in my shoe. I was a waiter at the time, so I was on my feet all day, warming and pressing...

    STAY AWAY FROM LED's!!!!!

    Damn you ritalin! lol Now that I'm thinking about it, I can't stop! I really need to go to bed, I have to be up in about 3.5 hours to take my niece and nephew to school! Anyhoo, I've found some seemingly good info at this GrassCity thread *see Sardoth and 2lsc's posts*. Well, I don't know that...

    STAY AWAY FROM LED's!!!!!

    I think that with enough research, it is doable. The biggest problem is supplying power to each LED. I am not the most knowledgeable person when it comes to resistors and such, but Wikipedia is a great place to start! Then comes the light spectrums... with a bit of googling, I found a page that...

    STAY AWAY FROM LED's!!!!!

    I completely agree with you Virulent. I don't doubt that there are LEDs that work, and are based on real science. But as with any product, people are always trying to make a buck so they make a very poor imitation. My opinion on lights is this: If it is the best solution for you, go for it. I...

    STAY AWAY FROM LED's!!!!!

    I'll give it a go and see what I find. I would hope that if there were any such journals with reliable info, we wouldn't be having this discussion. I did see one journal a while back, with the inductive fluros, but it also seemed to be run by the company. Every other post was telling people...

    STAY AWAY FROM LED's!!!!!

    First off, I have never grown. I signed up here on RIU, literally the day after I smoked my first bowl. I've been reading and learning, waiting until I can start my own grow. Let's hope we see some results soon. What I really want, is a side by side test. Two rooms right next to each other...

    Scroggin W/ CFL's

    Seeing as I haven't had any smoke in almost a month I can't blame you for choppin' her! :sad: Also, if you really think that you learned some valuable lessons for your next grow, I can't blame you either. I would probably do the same in your shoes. I can't wait to get my grow going... Thinking...

    Scroggin W/ CFL's

    I may have missed something, but what exactly is the issue with the soil? The nematodes may be a problem, but I'm on board with the baking thing. If you don't want to bake it, you could 'can' it (similar to most shroom teks). These plants seem to love the soil, and I think that sterilizing it...

    Simpson Oil...first batch...LOOKING TO HELP ONE MORE

    Wow, he is pretty tempermental! Perhaps he feels that somebody asking questions is taking attention away from the fact that he is trying to help people... If so it seems a bit self-righteous. And yes TopShelf, if this is the process you are using, it's just regular honey oil, but named in...

    Kief and Butter

    Okay, I just made two peanut butter meringue cookies. My mom is on Atkins, so she got rid of all the carbs in the house, so I worked with what I had. I made the meringue, then I mixed in some sugar, then I mixed some of the meringue, and my kief with the peanut butter. Next, I put a spoonful of...

    Kief and Butter

    I'm only doing this so that I can get cheap, or even free weed. So, I'm just thinking about making one pan of brownies at a time. Maybe one pan a week, or two a month. So by your advice, it'd be 1.5g kief, per stick of butter (max)... I'm looking at brownie recipes (homemade, it's more fun!)...

    Kief and Butter

    So, a guy that I work with sells some good shit. I bought about 2 grams of some nice bud (supposed to be a relative of Purple Haze), which gave me about half a tablespoon of kief in my grinder. So I want to see if I can work a deal with him... He gives me the weed at a discount, and I give him...

    Is There An Afterlife?

    Alright, I would like to start off by saying that I am Catholic, and I smoke pot. I have not found pot to lower my inhibitions, so I don't see anything wrong with it. Also, relating to religion, I have gone to Catholic school for 10 of my 12 years. I firmly believe in everything the Church...
