What are these led lights specific called in the pic?
Just for the record, I have an NYCD CBD plant a bit more than three weeks into flower under 7 Philips 13W/1520lumen 2700k bulbs going nicely
And I'm now using 2 9w T8 type lights in the (re)veg compartment
where less headroom is available.

Nice clean setup Slevin.
I've had mixed results with these screw-in LEDs. I think they are a tad too strong for real young seedlings and I'm thinking they really need to be kept further away than a lot of you guys have been running them. I like 18-24 inches away with my bar of five 8 watters. I would go even further away with stronger wattage bulbs I think. I watch the plants and the leaves are not so happy if too close. JMO.

very useful info, curious what other experiences there may be with vegging
still vegging with cfl's but definitely want to move on
for flower led's are a different world for us micro growers

Dude you have some killer skills and genetics! Just thanks for sharing.
very good info, kind of knew that good vegging is being done with led's
but nice to see some veg experiences, flower pics have drowned out the other growing features

Yea im in love with how clean your fixture looks. Very professional compared to my cleat socket and scrap wood hack job lol
Hey slevin. I asked the same around in a thread I made. I got this information from another led grower. Hope it helps

Jonhova mate scrap wood is fine. I am not growing at the moment but my setup is all ready and this is what I made
Nothing special mate. No shame in using scrap wood.

I watched your cab is very beautiful and green!

Thanks Gantz,
your information is very useful, practically the same as the room I used, although in the first flowering phase I also fell to 10 cm and in fact I had the faded tips.
Thank you guys!!!
Amazing thread, inspired me to finally get something of my own going!
Currently have 18 10w bulbs(12 3k & 6 5k) with the room to add 20 more light sockets if need be. Going in a 32"x32"x6' cabinet
How the heck are you guys getting pics inside your tent/cabinets? I have to stand like 8' away from my cabinet or else my phone camera goes crazy with black lines everywhere lol
I have a couple things I want to change with the cab, but I got some time while I germinate 4 random bag seeds
