My profession before disability was a Journeyman Electrician for Local 716, IBEW.
THAT FIXTURE WILL DRAW ABOUT one amp. Watts ÷ Volts = Amps. Watts ÷ Amps = Volts. I have two 1200 watters, two SOLACURE flouresents, four four inch fans and a mini De-humidifier and it costs me monthly/ less than $20.
You never get that with HID Lighting !!

Good to know the facts from the electrical source. My problems is it being 90 + outside and trying to keep my tent cool, so my electric went up about 60.00 a month.with the fans and exhaust fans....but I read autoflower like it in the 80s so I can do that for sure
Happy growing

My uncle and dad rave about fish emulsions, they say that stuff is what I need, seaweed also. I don't hear a lot about on forums, I heard this is the best way to go.

It's more vital to have plant matter in the grow medium. Plant decaying is a naturally occurring process. Seaweeg really helps bacteria to magically feed our plants. My compost contains 6× the plant matter with ONLY one part animal. I've somewhat stopped using animal manures and switched to ACTIVATED YEAST as the COMPOST ACCELERATER.

I run Lec 315 for mother plants (Cmh),HLG for my clones (QB), Spyrx plus (Osram ) & Timber Led (Vero 29) and I used to run Hps De ’s (now just sitting in a box )

Timber not only is my favorite light out of the list but I did quite a bit of research before i invested into my gear . I wanted to make sure the company was good as the gear ( do you really want a shady company building and fixing your issues ?) I’m good

I’m not going to explain the whole sci cause all I will get is bashing and debates from hps dudes and people who want to. The value per par/light-strength level and durability of the light showed for me in the timbers ( yes you could build em yourself but that’s like only 25% savingish but you still have to waterproof all the connections and get a frame but also you lose your warranty and tech support and quality lights .

Not all lights are created equal and price does make it any better .

Too bad they are not even close to 600 watts and far from the best LED out there. Trust me, I had one and Quatum LED boards crushed it.
