Dutch Passion DP Auto Ultimate & Think Different outdoor grow (30L Airpots)

[Terra Firma]

Wow, I'm loving that light setup, so long as you rotate them it has to be spot on - loads of light to the lower bud sites and a HS1 flooding the top of the canopy.

So long as the HS1 is at a height where the tops of the plants are getting well lit the diffuser should make sure the canopy gets piles of light. I'm rather jealous!

Thank you! I do indeed rotate the plants daily.

I have one issue left, a humidity of 80%. I've been looking into dehumidifiers and they're all so noisy/expensive/power hungry None of which are good things, as I'm also on a tight budget. Do any of you use a dehumidifier, and if so, which brand/model?

I was looking at the Qlima D512 for €160, but it only has a reservoir of 2L. I suppose I could put it on something and have it drain into a larger container on the floor.

Great grow so far can't wait to see them out doors... and @TEKGROW you can do get amazing results with a t5 HO 4ft especially an 8 bulb if you change your lights to the 2700k bulbs during flowering and try to train in some way to get your canopy as even as possible and the light as close as posible ...... sorry for jumping in on your thread bub good luck I'm still tagging along waiting on the good stuff..

Cool as a have no choice now.. leds blew ..will not use Hid in. These conditions .suffering a grow lost.. need a ballast for T5ho 8 lamp .. well two ballast issues in both T5s..

I hung up my T5 light as well and wonder how well they'll flower with LED and T5. The plants look pretty funky in this light, half green half purple

Should I keep my LED light like this or should I hang it lower at more of an angle, so that it shines on the plants more like the T5 light?

Looks pretty confusing. I'm so happy with my HS1 which is just plug and play. I hope you get it all working.

Well, I've used this light for about three years for growing chili pepper plants, and in that time I've never cleaned the reflectors. They are spotless and shiny so I'm not going to touch them. I might clean them after having the light vertical though.
