    question for DIYers...

    I know people are building flat panels but is it possible to build a vertical LED configuration as a DIYer? I was think of a series of thin panels that were joined together in (maybe) an octagonal shape and then suspended vertically. Would it be possible to build something that consumed around...

    noob question about diy organics...

    I'm not a noob to growing but I've realized I know little to nothing about fertilizer. I've just followed a watered-down manufactures guideline for a simple A + B product.

    Ideal Co2, water temp, air temp and RH...

    possibly very stupid DWC question...

    questions about realistic LED expectations...

    I'm interested in getting the new A51 190 watt light. Looking at the PAR outputs it look like it should perform at least as well as a 400w HPS. A solid 400w HPS grower can pull around 400 grams. Is it reasonable to expect that the A51 can do the same? I've looked at journals of the 160 watt...
