oh no problem, thanx for stoppin in mankiss-ass

-Does anyone have any experience with my LED panel?
-How long do you think my plants can last in those jugs before getting root bound?
-What do you think of my space vs. lighting?
Your LED panel looks an awful lot like some I bought off ebay. They seem to be crap imo. I just noticed this morning one of them only has a few blue lights that still light up. I've only been using them for side lighting so I really can't say if they work. However I won't be buying more of them.

ya thanx for the post. i can appreciate your concern, and its not like we plan to stay here forever. I have a lock on the door to the first room that u walk thru to get to the far room that we use as the bedroom where i hav my computer desk. The thing with the door on our bedroom is i dont know WTF to do about the door nob, clearly its an old way of doing it or they clearly wanted the door nob to never be taken off lol cuz i cant figure out how to get it off the door, there are no screws to undo, no holes to poke or pri open etc etc. N E ways that one lock is fine, we lock it when we leave/go out and usually when we go to bed so she cant come and bother us.. i want to move out OBVIOUSLY but things will be pretty tight financially if we did.. right now i me and my girlfriend pay $350 a month each. We get $585 each a month from the government for support with rent/food/living becuz she is 18 and goes to school full-time and i am 21, have a back problem keeping me from getting a decent job, aswell as i will be in school full-time come january. I am taking an upgrading certificate program at the local college to upgrade some marks/prereqs. then i should be in a 3 year diploma program come september for "Civil Engineering".

Hey gibbs yes I see your dilemma about moving out what can I say I'm a worrier lol and yeah was sad for you how it turned out last grow..seems like you have a bit better handle on the situation this time but as far as your lock there should be pins (sorry don't know technical terms) on each side and all you have to do is drill them out and whole nob will come off theoretically that is I'm kinda curious about that now though lol how's the babies today??

lol ya i'll figure it out if not i'll take a picture of it and post it on here haha u can post anything on this site and SOMEONE will reply eventually. But ya the babies are doing pretty good so far considering the temps and no ventilation.. but the leaves are stretching out so i need to make it bigger pretty soon or some the light wont hit some of the smaller plants.. 2 out of the 9 are def. taller so i might move them to either... flower or mothers or veg&flower lol.

I am pretty positive that you can remove the lock the way I said unless it is one that I never came across before...I have done this a time or 2 lol funny what one can learn..and as far as the babies can't wait to see what they do I'm sub'd been thinking of some leds but for supplemental light still just unsure I'd its worth my money..

ok so the plan right now is im taking 5 plants over to my buddies so we can transplant and veg. under the 1000watt MH 7200k for 2 weeks while they take in the transplant, then flower with the 1000watt MH for 2 weeks to help with the stretch, then 6 plus weeks under the 1000watt HPS to finish flowering. The remaining 3 plants i will be putting under my 400watt MH to veg. as mothers, there will be 2 Number One plants and the 1 Number Four plant. THEN i will cutt a bunch of clones and start the process over but in a different way.. not sure as to what way exactly yet tho (big plants, small plants, monster cropped, topped, LST'd, etc. etc.)...

i have purchased a 40"x40"x79" tent for $145 shipped to my door in 5 business days from BC, i will update further when i get back from setting up the room at my buddies today.

I heard those magnetic induction lights are the way to go...I was looking at a 300 watt one but the price wasn't right. No one I know has grown under them but I've heard on the net that it's like 1000k light or more. The spectrum is the selling point and low heat. But any way man your grow looks real good. I'm impressed. Good luck

ya i never looked into LEDs before purchasing the light i have so i am unsure of the terminology when you say "magnetic induction" either way i didnt really plan on investing alot into LEDs i just wanted to test it out and figured it would be useful for autogrowers or something in a tiny little closet as a seperate grow (original plan) but ya its working quite nicely under my computer as you can see by the pictures.. thanx for stopping in man, any further explaination of your knowledge with LEDs would be nice to hear. Cheers

Magnetic induction fluorescents lights...it uses a magnetic field to excite the gases in the lamp. Well that's how I understand it.
