New Grower GrowBox should i do it? need answers please

Hi Owl, I bought a Superponics 8 site hydro unit that I am still using. I originally bought it because it appeared to be an all in one solution. The company sent me the unit with someone else's paperwork. The device had no significant operating instructions and when I contacted them they seemed baffled that I didn't inherently know how to use their product. I learned how to grow here. You will definitely be way ahead of the game if you either find another product for less money or build your own cab. If you decide to build your own and you're in the US, look at cabs at Sam's club. There are much better looking boxes there to build on. With the amount of money you're looking at spending you'll be able to purchase top of the line components. Also look at Mars/TOP LED lights they're a great value and there are lots of AFN Members using them with great results. Cheers
 
I'm thinking about going with a 4x4x6 secret jardin 600w Led going to buy 5 gal buckets since I work at Lowe's and buy airstones and pumps and all that how many autos can I grow with 4x4x6 if they are in 5 gal buckets with 600w Led and cfls on each side of the tent

The secret jardin is their newer versions and the 600w Led is from kind led

Supplies list so far

What do you guys think this version of jardin is supposed to have a better frame and stuff

Kind LED, very, very pricey for what they offer IMHO, it look like a re-branded Chinese light from the specs and power consumption.

Have you looked at the Mars Hydro LED's?

Kind LED Grow Lights For Sale

After years of rigorous research and development, the KIND LED Grow Light is complete, and it is a complete work of art. The K3 series LED grow lights are comprised of high powered 3 Watt Light Emitting Diodes featuring a proprietary intensified spectrum designed for flowering large yields.
This revolutionary series of LED grow lights will produce the biggest and best yields, while consuming approximately half the electricity and producing virtually no heat. Your Kind LED Grow Light will cultivate record breaking yields, both in quantity and quality, while running quieter, cooler, and more efficiently than any other grow light. Guaranteed.

A Little Kindness Goes A Long Way


  • KINDEST YIELDS Optimized Driving Current Increases Diode Efficiency and Output, Resulting in a Brighter, Higher Yielding Footprint
  • KINDEST SPECTRUM Proprietary 12 Band Complete “Perfect Spectrum” Powered by 3 Watt Diodes
  • KINDEST INTENSITY Secondary Optical Lens Magnifies PAR and Increases Canopy Penetration By Up to 200%
  • KINDEST QUALITYExtra Large Heat Sinks, Quiet Fans, Precision Drivers, Superior Craftsmanship
Kind Grows “Kind” Grows

Kind Komparisons:


  1. Use a proprietary 12 bandwidth spectrum comprised of 3 watt diodes that run at 650mA. Lesser LED grow lights run at 500mA with only a 6 bandwidth spectrum.
  2. Thick, heavy duty 2 CM aluminum heat sinks that dissipate heat much more efficiently than other LED lights, making Kind LED lights run more effectively and cooler leading to longer life spans and increased performance.
  3. Revolutionary “Secondary Optical Lens” for maximum photosynthetic penetration from plant top to base, considerably increasing “under canopy” production and yield.
  4. These Kind LED lights will match or outperform any other 3 watt LED grow light, including much higher priced brands. GUARANTEED!
LED vs. HPS

These Kind LED grow lights use only about half the electricity as HPS lights, and produce much more yield per watt. Many studies have even show an increase in oil production and quality, closer inter-nodal spacing, and denser fruits and flowers. Also, because these Kind LED grow lights produce less heat, they do not need to be air-cooled like HPS lights, therefore eliminating the need for additional fans, which also makes them run quieter. Kind LED lights run cool, so cool in fact that no additional temperature control equipment is needed besides the internal circulation fans. Lower light temperatures lead to a much more easily maintained ideal grow environment in which your plants would thrive. Because the individual diodes of a Kind LED light are set to a specific color and in a specific proportion, we are able to emit the exact spectrum that a developing plant would need to thrive, with little to no waste. The 12 band complete spectrum is designed to perfectly match the growth needs of your plants. Kind LED Growers will be able to simplify their grow rooms, save on electrical consumption, keep their rooms cooler, and perhaps most importantly, experience a marked increase in the quality of their fruits, flowers, and vegetables.
Kind LED vs. other similar LED companies
LED lights are made up of many small LEDs, or light emitting diodes, that each project one specific wavelength of the electromagnetic scale. We interpret this as the visible (although sometimes invisible) color of a diode. Plants use and absorb an array of colors from 400nm to 700nm in order to carry out photosynthesis. Many LED companies only use 2-3 of the primary colors needed for photosynthesis and plant growth. Plants that are not receiving their complete lighting spectrum needs can become leggy and produce only wispy flowers. Kind LED Grow Lights feature a complete 12-band spectrum that provides your plants every lighting component needed for robust and complete growth, throughout all stages of their life cycle. Another major Kind advantage is the use of the revolutionary “secondary optical lens” which penetrates deep into the plant canopy to reach secondary and tertiary levels, thus maximizing yields by creating a higher overall number of viable dense flowering sites.
Our 3 watt diodes running at a 650ma driving current incorporate the perfect blend of intensity, efficiency, durability, and low operating temperature, making them the superior choice. Many other LED brands are running with lower diode wattages and lesser driving currents, making them an inferior option when compared with Kind LED Grow Light.

Kind LED grow lights are the ONLY 3 Watt grow lights that feature a 12 bandwidth full spectrum LED panel, a secondary high intensity optical lens, and 2CM aluminum circuit boards. These 3 Watt Kind LED lights will match or outperform any other similar 3 watt setup that is seen often throughout the web, regardless of price or claims, GUARANTEED!
Grow Kind with KIND LED.

I just took a look at mars they are quite a bit cheaper I will look at them more I just wish they had it on the same site as my other stuff
 
Im using a mars hydro ufo 180watt(90-100actuall watt) and the 300 watt panel (180 actual watts). I just had some of my first harvest. Very great stuff. Nice and dense nugs. Super sticky. Very good results for how cheaply priced they are in comparison to a lot of the other LED brands. I bought the old model. The new model is more expensive but, probably worth it.
 
Thanks everyone for helping me decide the route to take I am definitely going with a tent setup
Especially you waximus I greatly appreciate it also one more thing do you guys recommend a RO filter?
 
You can view what I will be using in my setup here
