I am first time grower (have grown outdoors) and ordering a grow kit. My question was about fire hazards. Should I be worried about this?
I do travel a bit, and would like to automate the system for watering, lighting, fans, etc etc.
Should I be concerned about a good quality grow kit (with LED lighting) catching fire?
Thank you

Short answer, yes. You should always consider disaster. But in reality current equipment that is UL or other rated, properly installed on the correct wiring / breakers is nearly foolproof. Nearly. You can still be a fool.

I think the answer you are looking for is that you will be alright. That is generally true, but it is always good to try to think things thru and minimize weak spots. Wiring is #1 with the next thing a distant second.
