Nice setup for a reasonable price. Guessing this is only going to suffice for veg state though yeah?

This thread needs to be updated with some good PP-L fluorescent light info. These lights move the the yard stick forward.

I was going to try updating this thread, but I remembered that this forum doesn't allow you to go back and edit old posts. I haven't done any grows recently. I've just reached a point in my life where I'd have too much to lose if the wrong people discovered my hobby. You guys know how it is.

Anyway, I'm glad this thread was stickied, and that so many people have seen my lighting guide over the years. Knowledge is power, guys! And the more people know, the less likely they are to believe DEA propaganda.
