well it is a misconception that having 8 lights that emit 10,000 lumens put together equal 80,000 lumens. each one emits 10,000 lumens and that is how many lumens are getting to the plant. increasing the amount of light only spreads the area that can be grown in.

I would imagine so but then youll have the same problem Daz has with a step up/down transformer to adjust voltage.Plus the shipping will be whopping,i got the shipping note for my light and it says 35lbs weight.

Ive got a sneaky feeling i might get the lights tomorrow , i noticed hgs have a outlet in Pa so if its sent from there..maybe , its coming ups and i ordered a box of topps 2010 baseball cards from the suppliers and it came ups in 2 days from NY.

I found it on Ebay for a little less , apparantly theres various calibration solutions and cleaning solutions ill need to look into.Hopefully ill find a package deal with everything included.Im not swayed with the seller i found as its only a 30 day guarentee and theres all kinds of warnings , dont do this and dont do that and buy this solution and that solution and never let the probe dry out..with 30 days warrenty..dunno.Ill see if i can find another seller , i prefer using Ebay as i use paypal anyway , thanks EP.

Yep , sorted , one more item off my list..i noticed the list has 5 gallon buckets or pots..why do i need those ? Its dumb question time , initially i thought ..oh yeah..to put the plants in..but in all the indoor pics nobody is using 5 gallon pots.

im using 5 gallon pots. the bigger the pot, the bigger the yield. you can get 5 gallon buckets at walmart in the paint section for like 2 bucks. they work really well
