it honestly doesnt look like it is worth that much but since i didnt know anything about hydro or even how to set it up i paid the price for it.

Thanks.

Looks like it wouldn't be to hard to build such a system. I bet all the materials could be bought at Walmart.

I'm not trying to be-little your system. I just like to build things. :jointsmile:

[coolslayer]

Okay,please build me one then.lol

I plan on building more so we can do some veggies in it also, but that probably wont be till next month. It really is not that comlicated to make. Afrer i make a box on my own i will take video or step by step pics so yall can see it but that wont be till after the 18 of next month. Today i plan on getting a bigger bin and switching everything from the samller bin to the bigger. I fear that the plants are to crowded and the bigger bin will give them all more room. They have responded to the new lights awesomely i am thinking about getting two more and having them shine from the bottom up to help the botom leaves get light. Does that sound like it could work?

You're kickin ass Mama, very nice. How much water that thing hold, 10g?

What kind of light were you using?

[medical420mama]

The bin is maybe a 8 gallon or so i only put 6 gallons of water in it though. LOL the light our first light was a good year tire shop decorotive sign that had a flouresnt tube in it. It worked good to get them this far and then we just went out to wal mart last night and picked up some new lights the bulb says its a plant light i am not sure if it is really what they need but over night there was a huge change in the gods gift. i will take pics and post them at some point today.

I think the words "Grow Light" on a package isn't the end all of lights. You can probably get lights with the properties you need, at much lesser of a price.

If you go to Home Depot or something, I bet you can find the lights you need, at a much lower price.

Just pay attention to things like warmth (6500K and such), lumens and junk like that there.


Just my :twocents:

Thanks pepurr i looked at lowes breifly but at the time we didnt have the money and we were at wal mart last night and saw those they were cheap the whole set up was under 20 bucks so it was really no biggie. We have a light already in mind just have to wait till next month.

[medical420mama]

I upgraded the box they just looked to crowded in that tiny box. We got them a little bit better of light not the best of lights but so far a big increase on the plants..note i raised the light inorder to take pics.
