    BR2K,

    Hope all is well, just wanted to apologise for posting my what light should I choose in your thread, I'm sorry I'm just starting to get a bit excited that after all the work I've done I'm getting close to actually becoming able to get growing. Anyways just wanted to let you know that it wasn't cool and I should have made my own post for the question.


    I wish you a great sunny day with everything going your way.....✌️

      Dude - No worries. I'm pretty much in the same position. I set up my tent and 315W LEC today. I hope to move into my new home very shortly. I'm torn which light to start with but will likely use my little T5. It's great to have options.

      I am following the GWE advice to have everything ready - BEFORE I drop my seeds in water. I have all the components, it's just a matter of getting my ducks in a row.

      I wish you MUCHO success too!!!

        BR2K,

        Very kind of you to say and I wish you the very best in your green dream adventures. I was sold on the Viparspectra 700, then Mars Hydro came out with this new line, maybe it's been out for a while but I just found out and the reviews are pretty darn good. Coverage area especially on the edges, par level is very good and the drivers and LEDs aren't name brand like a Spider Farm, Samsung parts, but for the price I'm pretty sure that I'm going to take the chance and go with two of these. What where you going to use of you don't mind me asking?

          PASSION BABY - I LOVE IT!!! I prepped my tent and four 3 gal smart pots. I don't know whether I was supposed to PH correct my Calmag treated water but I did. I just dropped six seeds...I'll figure something out if they all sprout. I have plenty of grow bags and don't absolutley need the tent. My main tent grow has my Vivosun 315W LEC light. I also have a 400w (equivalent -Hipargero) COB light and a 2 ft T5 light. I'll probably use the T5 for the sprouts (solo cups), before moving them into their permanent home. I also just started my document. Good times.

            Everyone started at some point so don't feel alone. Read read and read more, that's what I've done while collecting my new tools. I personally believe that as long as we know there's always a learning curve and keep diligent and patient we/ you and I and anyone that truly wants to learn will. I'm trying to figure ventilating as well. Fresh air is a must for the happy plant so I'm trying to figure how to bring in the fresh air while not cooling my tent. I need to do the read read read thing and get my knowledge, then it will all make sense. It's cold here in Michigan so any outside fresh air I bring in will be 30° . I guess add a heater inside the tent to keep the air temp@77° and quite possibly a humidifier if they heater dries the air to much. I'm going to throw up a post this Saturday and get some advice from there crew. Lots of helpful people here. So you dropped your beans, what ya growing if you don't mind me asking? I'm going with Six Shooter Auto and one of the photos I have, not sure what ones yet but going to keep it a small grow until I know what I'm doing, that way I can keep an eye on the seedlings and plants as they grow so I can learn easier.

              Fortunately for me, I get to use the heat from my 315W LEC ight to help heat my home. I don't need to draw air from outside. I can only imagine how hot the HPS lights get. I I'm using the free auto seeds I got with my order. AK, Cheese and Northern Lights.

                If the HPS light is 250w then it runs cooler than a 315w lec. It’s
