Yeah, sad thing about the ones you buy like the elf, is that they require expensive fans to push air through them efficiently. This thing can be used with an inline duct fan.

A buddy of mine gave me three LED panels yesterday. Of course in the spirit of keeping it ghetto they are the cheapest made in China ones available but they are bright. They will fit in well with my forest of CFLs 36 total. I am pretty sure I don't need to stuff anymore bulbs up there.

It is one of shortstuffs strains I got a twenty seed mix from Attitude. They weren't labeled separately. I would like to know what the exact breeds are myself because I need to order again and I have plant or two I would like to grow repeatedly

lol thanks im keeping my fingers crossed these wont end up like my last ones and be a waste of time. If you had four feet of a height to work with how long would you veg them ? im thinking maybe 8 weeks would give me some nice sized plants in the end, what do you think ?
Concord Dawn

ok i have a question for you "members" of the GGG. ive read on RIU to use a computer fan to circulate air to your plants. so i tried it, i opened up the computer unscrewed the fan and heres where my question comes in... what is supposed to be done with the wires coming out of the fan?

find a old cell phone charger or something that matches the volts required by the fan.
Personally, i have wasted more money on pc fans than anything. I finally went with an inline fan and finally got the exhaust i wanted.

hey cc, i run 7 80mm fans in 2 boxes with a $12 computer dc power source. the yellow wires are the 12v wire and the red is like 6v. you can use either, but running on the red, the fan only turns half the full speed of the fan. if you dont use the the computer power unit, the charger adapters will work like jp said. hey jp, ive had fans take a shit on in 4 grows now, one a blade broke off cause of me and the other was just loaded with dust and wouldnt turn no more, LoL. what was the problem you kept having with them?
