you'll need more cal/mag for an led grow too. just a heads up for your first LED grow. :) welcome to the club

Great strain choices btw, I've been eyeing The Black for a while and subcools plushberry who doesn't wanna try that out?!

Now Im dealing with temps too low. LOL I wish it was summer I guess? The cab hasnt got over 71 degrees the last 2 days. I've had to resort to germing beans in a friggin bag on the TV receiver trick. I transplanted a freshly sprouted bean to soil and im wondering if it will even be able to get out of the ground. Never thought I'd say it but I think I need to put another lil light in there for some heat. My exhaust fan is only 50cfm, cant get much slower than that.

Shit I just had an epiphany! I have room in my little cab for both the 150 and the LED and still able to keep temps good, WHY DONT I HAVE BOTH LIGHTS IN THERE?! LOL its just sitting on the shelf. I could just take the HPS out in summer if it was getting too hot. I was thinking hey I want to do this cool kind of comparison thing for all the fine people of RUI... or do I want to use whats at my disposal to get the best/most bud that I can from my grow?! You tell me! :-P

Ok so as long as my temps stay good Im leaving both lights in the cab, its silly to just have it sitting on the shelf. So Ill continue to update my other thread instead.
