I was just telling Mrs. Goodman the story about how I bought my first light outta the Little Nickel a couple weeks ago... As we were driving by the spot I picked up my second through fifth.Parking lot rendezvous , where would us old stoners be without those memories ?
The old tek light hunt is rough , I gave up last year .......Yea... I'll go collect some more trophies soon... And keep hunting for old TekLights.
Oh... I'm on the hunt now... I'll find some.The old tek light hunt is rough , I gave up last year .......
Amekins , tek lights are a four or eight lamp flourscent t 5 fixture
They are good for seedlings , clones and limited veg , very well made and a bit stylish .... Not sure if they are still made but they seem to have a following , at least by 2 people that I know , myself being one of them ....
Find two , pleaseOh... I'm on the hunt now... I'll find some.
Is it really a " clone" if you can pull more clones off it the same day you get it ? I think it should be called a " plant "
XS2000? You won't be disappointed i already want another oneThanks UPS Dude... Your timing could not have been better!

I will... I know where there's a few stashed away... But Dude has been MIA.Find two , please
In flower I ended up settling around 16" from the canopy at 100%, just about ready to bring the next run in under it and plan on starting them around 40% and slowly increasing and adjusting height as necessary. Doubt i will start that close most likely around 24" and lower as I see them responding, I got it mid flower and they were more than happy to accept the increase from my old lightYep... Seems well built... Nicer than I expected for sure.
Any suggestions as far as distance from plants and/or % of power to run it?
Got a picture of these "old tek lights" you could find from a quick search?
Cool... Thank you.In flower I ended up settling around 16" from the canopy at 100%, just about ready to bring the next run in under it and plan on starting them around 40% and slowly increasing and adjusting height as necessary.

HERO staring Bud Goodman and jet li , in the never ending quest to collect all the Tek lights in existence ....... Now playing in bud worldI will... I know where there's a few stashed away... But Dude has been MIA.
They pop up though... There's one up north right now... But it's a 24".
We got to get you going on a proper LED Bud, and there's no turning back once you get your toes wet. I'm pretty sure that ones going to do well for you, but it's only about half way there. It's a good one, don't get me wrong, but the REALLY good ones, are going to have samsung LED's (anytype are great, as long as they begin with an LM301 bulb) The H is best, but anything in the LM301 generation is going to be excellent. The other key is this, spreading the lights out, instead of having them bunched up on a panel, like yours are. Don't get me wrong, panels are very effective, I've got 2 of them I use, and I've had another 20 older ones that I've gone though over the years, but the newer 4x4 sized light, that have the bulbs spread out (Personally I didn't think the would be effective) but I was WRONG, the are the most effective, and it's because they throw out light from different perspectives, and you get layers of shadowing, and way, way better canopy penetration.None... And I have no idea. My first LED... Hell, on the way to Portland, I met a guy in a parking lot to buy another TekLight... But the thing was broken. Still was fun... Felt like the "old days".
I just ordered that light and tent to make some seeds separate from the other plants... But since it's here, I'll use it to quarantine these plants... I was probably just going to throw these in the "greenhouse" otherwise.
LOL, you know that's not happening.Hold my hand bud.......the times are a changing , let's jump into this led thing togther
MIM will you join us
Just treat her gentle, and don't force any zippers. I've had cheap tents. Don't expect it to hold back any water leakage, first time it gets wet in there, your seals are going to fall off the inside of the inside floor mat, if it even came with one. There's so many different grades of tents out there, but at $200 for light and tent, I can't imagine it's a terribly solid one.It's not real nice... But it'll work.
I'm all in about $200 for the tent and light.

My guess would be 24-36 for those early plants you've got. Probably more like 24 on that light, if I'm correct, then dial it up closer as you go into flower.Yep... Seems well built... Nicer than I expected for sure.
