First time indoor grow


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

I'm starting my first indoor grow soon, getting a 100 x 100 x 200cm tent. I'm trying to see what LED will be good enough, so far I have decided on this one:

https://growguru.co.za/collections/plant-lighting/products/720w-cob-full-spectrum-led-grow-light

Has anyone used it?

EDIT: Or this one? https://hydroponic.co.za/hydroponics/mars-ii-400-led/

Thanks.

I have looked at the light. They do not specify what brand of cob light it has. If you are looking for a light why not head over to growopz site and check out some comparisons between lights. And he has killer prices. There are a couple of companies/websites with QB boards. Does any one have a QB lying around as an extra?

That light is rather shitty unfortunately, its a classic alibaba import. Also I'd advise against growopz, their prices are not competitive and you can build something powerful for the same price or just under.

Not every body is electrically minded or did not have physics at school. For us normal people, we buy shit. Your lights are killer though. The light is a good start, but not something I would have gone with. The new Mars bar lights are a good investment. According to me, if you are not looking to build a light yourself.

FYI -

Fish Mix - Bio Bizz × 1
Bio Bloom - Bio Bizz × 1
Bio Grow - Bio Bizz × 1

Was a waste

Bio - Grow = Soil Fert

Bio - Fish = Hydroponic type fert (coco, none composted soils)

You don't use the fish and grow together

Not everything is for the first/same grow.
