I found this comparison interesting, it could have been more accurate in that they could have used multiple bulbs from each manufacturer and compared how the bulbs perform in different ballasts. However that would have blown up the cost of the comparison astronomically so i can sorta see why they wouldn't. Summed up, out of 9 bulbs the hortilux 1000w won, followed by Ushio and Digilux - badass, solis tek, lumatek and maxlume were mysteriously close, perhaps even coming out of the same factory ? The difference between the hortilux and the 4th position was quite a large margin of 18%, that is a pretty big difference! Detailed results can be found here: http://growe…

Could anyone please have a quick glance and give me opinions this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Plastic bulb development promises better quality light By Matt McGrath Environment correspondent, BBC News http://news.bbcimg.co.uk/media/images/64477000/jpg/_64477958_fipellightinggregsmithdavidcarrollmed.jpg US researchers say they have developed a new type of lighting that could replace fluorescent bulbs. The new source is made from layers of plastic and is said to be more efficient while producing a better quality of flicker-free light. The scientists behind it say they believe the first units will be produced in 2013. Details of the new development have been published in the journal Organic Electronics.

Gents.... I'm looking for some advice on throwing a filter on the intake to prevent sucking pests into the grow tent from outside (pulling in from outside as it will be cooler). So far I've read about furnace filters, panty hose, speaker covering material..... But thought is ask the community I'm a member of....for any solutions consisting of products we can source locally.

Hi guys, I got a greenhouse that is 3.1m x 1.85m x 2.5m Id say it has roughly 14 cubic meters of air, the idea is to vent the air in this greenhouse though insulated ducting out of the roof of this greenhouse, then into the roof of my house. The air will also be filtered. The location of the greenhouse is wedged in between my house with approximately 1m of awnings and a about a 2.4m fence, the top of this fence has white laser lite which will reflect some light and also let a little though. The sun passes over the house then over the fence, so the location does not get full sun all the day, but will get a few hours every day and a bit of shade - so the greenhouse wi…

been looking for info on optimal lighting for Autos. I figured 24/7 would be best as it will continue to grow under constant light to give the best yeild possible the genetics can afford?? i remember reading the dark cycle plays a part. I just dont know what these Autos can do.

Any advise welcome. yNg :-)

Hello, 400watt kit $ 324 http://www.aussiepon...d&productId=724 600watt kit $ 388 http://www.aussiepon...d&productId=727 So im only planing on growing 2 plants, but for a little extra i can run a 600 watt. But considering the extra initial cost and running cost is it worth it for 2 plants? And i do living in hot qld so the extra heat aswell

What size intake fan would work in a small grow tent (1.2*.6*1.6) with a 600w cooltube running to a 150mm phat filter, the exhaust fan is a 150mm westaflex fan. I'm looking at getting a 100m centrifugal fan to use as my intake as I want to keep noise to a min, but I'm unsure, any advice would be great Thanks
