Nutrients help

Just get a roll of Mylar reflective cheaper than buying “tin foil” lol. Made for that purpose. For one plant like this is you don’t need a giant light, but buy a god one, light is the number one thing to spend money on if you want to grow a healthy plant.

Thanks for all your input. I never would’ve guessed. Lol like yall said if a plant does not have a sun they have no life or not a good one. I’ve cleared this up with him. He said he wished he had the funds to invest in something like that. I’m personally looking at these here and planned to give him the vivosun light that comes with my tent. If you have any better suggestions please let me know. :grinning:

I wouldn’t get a kind light. A lot of their cost in in a name brand as they have been around for a long while and were one of the first to come out with the blurple lights, it’s just my opinion but they have dropped the ball. Get on Amazon look for lights made with Samsung 301B or 301H diodes and that have a good driver such as Meanwell. Then make sure the light has red, far red and both IR and UV diodes. A good example would be the Spider Farmer lights, the smaller the light the less expensive they are, you don’t need a big one for a single plant. HTH

I was looking at those late last night and bookmarked one of theirs I was looking at I was fairly lifted and had snowplowed for 14 hours before my head hit the pillow at that point hence why I didn’t remember to mention them. They seemed fairly priced for what you were getting. Thanks brother.

Seedling to veg can be super cheap.
I like T5 fixtures and led tubes. I like the durolux cheap

@PreyBird1 and I both use those durolux lights, I have the one he has listed above 3 of them, and I have three of the 5500K same brand Durolux. I did my entire grow with these Durolux lights, they are great lights for the bucks, you just can’t beat them. The red version that Prey listed above should take you through flower. The 5500K I use are fantastic for the veg, but lack red, far red, and UV for flower, so I supplemented them with 4 30w Rapid LED bars and power supplies plugged into my master timer. The proof is in the puddin. They are just solid grow lights, zero bells and whistels.

Not my doing and can’t take credit for it. It is a now not available Ethos O.K.C. which is short for Orange Kush Cake, it didn’t make much weight, but my oh my is it good lol. Unfortunetely Ethos discontinued the strain. In general Ethos has pretty good genetics, this is the most dank of theirs I have grown, they claim 30%+ THC on a lot of their strains including this one, but I have never seen anything of theirs tested or even get close to that, but they are a solid mid 20’s for most of their strains. Tons of the seed companies including our own Chitown seeds owned by @automatik and out of Chicago IL. He carries all the Ethos stuff as well as a fricking TON of others.

Hope he at least gets to try this dang thing. Boy what a mess this has been to sort out. Does it seem I’ve turned it around or should he have called it a bust? Lol
