Arizona Grow

Insulation is in the walls. Fucking dirty job, spray in insulation. I don’t think I’ll be breathing too well tomorrow. Added some more soil to my little Cherry OG. I think I’m going to bed for the day. Later gators

Sunlight is expensive. I berated @PreyBird1 with questions about lights. I took some advice. Today I completed the last expensive ass purchase for my growing lab.

1 Grower’s Choice ROI E 200 for my veg room
1 Grower’s Choice ROI E 680s for my flower room

@nacho151 is always first to show love. That bill hurt too.

Just enjoy following your build and your grow! I just bought a light today to upgrade one of my tents. I’ve been checking out all my equipment’s amperage draws and decided to try out a Ionboard S33 to see if it will meet my needs!

I appreciate the feedback and interest. Everyone’s interest gets me motivated some days, other days it’s just because I hate my backyard is a mess.

Home run stretch at this point, refinish the walls inside and then paint and trim.

Well isnt that fancy! Thats an awesome light! Did you get the controller also?

I went with the luxx xr860 pro and controller from growershouse. Got the controller pretty cheap due to a sale.

I’m going to ask this publicly so anyone else who reads it won’t have to worry about asking someone this question.

Why would I want a $300 controller? If I only have 1 or maybe 2 lights, what does the controller do for me? What is the main function of a controller? Is there more to it than just having fancy settings?

Something tells me others will want to know this when they look at better quality lights.

That’s a great question! You dont need a controller and your absolutely correct there. Well over the years i gotten a better understanding of the fancy settings and light recipies enough to utilize them more and dial in my grow more precisely. So i wasnt going to buy the controller but with only 3 power settings it was kinda basic. Well the controller gave a lot more control like 100% power output control dawn and dusk settings. Temp cutoff auto dim or shut down. Humidity control on off and shut down. So for me it gave me a shitload of adjustments. And i would not have to raise and lower the lights as much because i can control the light better. And with a sale the controller cost me $60. Then couple that with the infinity T6 fan and man this new set up is dialed in perfectly. So i canmprogram my light and fan system together. I like it a lot now but it not cheap your right! :exploding_head:

That’s pretty bad ass actually, a couple more features than I knew of ( fan control and humidity shut-off we’re surprises). I’m a pretty basic grower ATM, I’ll have more than enough power and light for my veg room, and my bloom room may be great too. I’ll keep my eyes out for a sale on the Grower’s Choice controller. I won’t buy myself a Switch Pro controller so it will have to be a big sale.

Yep i got controllers on my other Foshe light. But it was like 1/2 price sale. This time same thing sale made it worth it. Dimmers are awesome either way! So i have 2 fancy lights. And 2 home built light not so fancy. But they rock.

Well I was born in Az. Only lived there for three months left for Japan @ three months old lol…don’t remember nuttin! Would love to go there for a visit and may just ride my motorcycle out there if I ever stop growing. Kinda hard to go anywhere when your growing a crop.

Great looking plants, nice setup with the greenhouse. I think that would get blown over the first week here in MO.

If ya don’t mind my askin what is MSU? Probably go DUH when you tell me lol.
