    But how many T5s would I need for that area? I guess I could fit an 8 bulb fixture in the 2x4. Would this be enough? I've never worked with T5s before. I've used a 125w CFL for a mother plant in a 2x2 and it was fantastic! But never T5s. (I'm not set on LEDs, just figured like everybody...

    This is what I was originally thinking of. http://www.dhgate.com/product/high-quality-100-3w-led-300w-led-grow-light/171687329.html#s1-3-1|827018358 I was thinking of doing 2 of these for a 2'x4' area.

    Tent hight will be 4.5' max, but can extend if needed. (custom tent) The lights are $100 each. How is your Apollo 4 running? Is it enough for 2x2?

    No, 4800 is correct. If you're saying that 48000 would be required for a 2x4 space, then let's take the Apollo 6 for example. Which is 3600 lumens. Are you telling me that for a little 2x4 space, I would need 13 Apollo 6s?

    Guess I'll chime in. Thinking about two LED fixtures, each quoted as 300w, so 100 x 3w, 4800lum. Would these two be a good fit for a 2' x 4' area? Thanks.

    Just need a simple answer! Recommended PAR, lumens, lux?

    Yes, I've read the thousands of comments, threads, and everything else where people have mentioned these words. Can somebody just tell me, while looking into LED lights, what are the recommended requirements for a plant in regards to PAR, lumens, and lux? Per square meter? Per square feet? I...

    Which hydroponic stores are the best?

    I second this comment. Great website. Great prices. Fast shipping. Regarding stores: Hydroponics Stores Of America, or HSOA... without question.

    i need help! a couple plants are ready to flower and the others are still only a foot

    I don't know if time is an issue, but you may want to veg for a couple more weeks. If some are ridiculously taller than the others, I like to top them near a nodal point that is similar to the height of the others. Usually you don't have to do this if they are the same strain, but sometimes...

    How can I simplify my nutrients?

    I've been using Fox Farm 3-part and CalMag for many years in my DWC system. Are there any simpler nute combos? Thanks.

    Hydro first time Question.

    I'll toss in my 2 cents. Not sure what all the fuss is about, they are young, green, and growing. They look fine. Without any other info on ppm and pH, there's not much we can discuss. I guess we can argue about hydro stores some more. I like my hydro store. Is it a universal understanding...

    Different hydro nutes for DWC?

    Hey guys, I just got questioned on my nute selection because I use DWC. I use Fox Farms' 3-part... Grow Big, Big Bloom, and Tiger Bloom. I've been doing this for years... is there something I don't know? What do you guys use? Thanks ahead of time.

    Need to circulate my DWC... how?

    Aaaaand here's what inside the res looks like. Pump on bottom feeds into small horizontal PVC tube, which then splits into 4 tubes, each going to a plant. @legallyflying... your signature quote has just added minutes of laughter to my day.

    Anybody grown Grapefruit?

    pH is now stable around 5.8 amazingly since I made this thread, but usually it would shoot up to around 7.0 in just a few days after I refilled the res. I've flushed multiple times whenever I sensed an issue, but the issues seem to come back almost instantly. Right now I'm just riding it out...

    First grow coming soon! Help choosing seeds!

    I just did Lemon Skunk from GHS, everybody seems to hate GHS, but I was absolutely amazed at it. The reason I recommend it is because it's an amazing strain for your first grow, it is incredibly forgiving and amazingly resilient. Sometimes I completely forgot about the ppm and pH, and it never...

    Anybody grown Grapefruit?

    Running a DWC system with 4 buckets, 400w HPS, Fox Farm nutes, 2 weeks into flowering after 5 weeks of veg, pH 5.8 and ppm 575. Had early problems with rust patches, got CalMag, but nothing seems to work. Now I have yellowing leaves, rusting on outer edges of leaves, leaves with rust in the...
