I had not grown indoors for about 3 years, due to not being happy with the yield from using 400 watt HID/HPS and organic soil. Last year I grew a nice 2 ft phallus (no side braches) outdoors (same soil) , but battled the bugs. Time to revisit indoors. I read through a few mj magazines; an ad for UFO 90 LED ad caught my eye: it looked so cool
I only investigated grow journals after buying the UFO. To make the grow more difficult, I decided to use a method that I was unfamiliar with DWC: drip/bubble.
I could not control the drip manifold and lost almost 2 full start ups due to root rot from the rockwool staying too wet.
Pissed away $ 120 in seeds, but 2 plants survived; one never fully recovered, 7" tall at harvest. Not to be denied ( ya gotta love my determination
). On the fly, I switched to fog/bubble then fog/bubble/spraybar (tired 5 different heads): it was not until I discovered and incorporated high pressure that the plant took off, but it was in the last 7 days of harvest. HA! The plant immediately took to True Aeroponic Growing (TAG), and buds kept getting bigger and bigger by the day!
I had to pull it due to house guest, and I was growing in that shower stall.
So, why am I telling you this?
A buddy told me harvested 1.2#s with CFLs in a 2 x 2 x 5 closet, using F/D! So this grow I decided to compare CFLs to my UFO 90 using TAG.
Hope you will come check out my journal True Aeroponic Grow using AVM UFO. Hint at 45 days veg, it's close, but both lights are excellent at vegging. Goin 12/12 tonite, hope you'll pull up a chair to see how both bud out.

While I showing photo's here are some new pics of my pc grow case. The last 2 photo's are of the front intake with Srubninja's light trap design on the fan and then the carbon filter on the exhaust fan. I'm also experimenting with old CD and DVD's as reflectors since they reflect a full color spectrum but are high in the red, blue, & purple.
