Was just a stupid careless mistake. I hope I topped them properly. We shall see. Is it best to just leave them as they are for a while and let them grow out? LST is very new to me :(

Thanks for the pointers. No nutrients going in. Just water as this is an organic mix.

Hey everyone. Well this is my first grow. 4x4 tent with 4 plants from clones. Using organic soil and a cheap led from amazon for the veg stage. I picked up a 600w HPS that I want to put in. Just need to get an exhaust fan for the light as I don’t want temps to get too high. Here are some pics...

Woot woot! Looks great. I would love to build a room someday. Right now just using a 4x4 tent. Great job. Keep the pics coming as you progress:)

@4ftRoots you are a machine! Thanks a bunch. I will do some digging and see what I can find for part numbers etc on the strips from Digikey and report back with my shopping list to make sure I get everything I need. Then I will build one and see how it goes and show you all what I did. Again...

I have 80” from top to bottom inside to play with so whatever you think would be best. I will make the panels adjustable up and down.

@4ftRoots I’m not sure if I get them at 30w max or figure 50w max but dim them down? This is where I was kind of hoping you experienced guys would help me make the right decision ;).

Thanks @welight fir those plans. Useful for sure. I am going to go with (I hope) 2x2 lights. Plan to use 1x1 aluminum tubing for all the frame work as well as heat sinks. I would like to use a combination of 3500k and 5000k within each light. I will make all 4 lights the same which will make...

Sorry I need to cover a 4x4 area. Want to use 2’ strips for the build. Would like to use the 3500k for the full grow cycle. Or should I use 3000k for flower and 5000k for veg? I could mix up the colours and use separate drivers to switch on and off as needed or pot’s to dim one over the other...

Ok I am going to go the Bridgelux EB Gen 2 route and build my frames out of 1x1 aluminum tubing. I think since being here in Canada, Digikey will be my best bet? Here is where I am hoping you guys can help me out. I want to build 2 light I think to hang both with separate drivers and dimmable...

yes they are from a grow shop. They should be fine for the seedlings and start of veg but I want to make sure I am ready for the rest of veg and flower stages with a better light.

Plan to spend around $300 if possible. :)

Cool. Thanks. How many should I get for a 4x4 tent?

Hey everyone. I hope I am posting this in the right section. I am newbie as this is my first time growing. I have a 4x4 tent to grow in and I just got my 4 clones on Saturday (Bubba Kush). Only thing I have right now are 2 LED tubes sitting above them which seems to be ok but I need to get...

Hey everyone. Well got my clones today. Bubba Kush for all 4. All I have right now are a couple of LED lights that I put them under until I figure out what light to build or buy. They are going into a 4x4 tent and I will be up potting probably tomorrow or Monday. Will be growing in organic...

Awesome. Well I guess it is time to do some digging and finding parts to order :). If you guys have some threads on your builds, please post them here for me if don’t mind ;) thanks and I will keep a journal of all this as well as my grow. Ta Ta Dezi

Huh?

Looking pretty sweet! Is your stat going to be in the way when you lower your lights?

Hey everyone. Got my tent (4x4), going with organic soil, now just gotta figure out what light to use. Been searching online and found the Bestva 2000 DC led light? Was thinking one of them or maybe 2 of the Tolys 1000w LEDs? Or I would live to build my own but I don’t know yet if I can build...

Hey everyone. WOW there sure is a lot of great stuff and info on here and YouTube for building your own lights. Cob, cree, led, etc etc etc. Well this is a first time indoor grow for me and I have a 4x4 tent to put 4 clones in. I have a couple of small light strips to help me with the veg...
