The more I stew on it, the more compelled I am to minimize operator error and let the smart guys assemble one for me.

I’m humbled by all the old hands that are so willing to share their knowledge and experience. You guys that go back to the 70’s and 80’s .did all the hard work and hard work it was. The content here in this community was guarded like Area 51 not so long ago. I think it would be wise to never take it for granted.

I wish there was more I could do to show my appreciation for everyone’s thoughtful efforts to share their knowledge.

The lights I got from BudgetLed came complete. Wire, dimmer and connectors. Easy to make connections and they performed great. Nice dense buds at a great price. I know they sale boards to do a DIY build, possibly that may be what you’re saying. Here’s a example of my results with Budgetled lights

This is a nug from this plant. Rock solid

Rightbud often has sales that kill horticulture lights. They sell their products there too. I bought my last 3 lights from them. You will not beat there customer service either.

The lights are super easy to hook up. I mean super easy. My 6 yr old son sat and watched me do 1 aand he wanted to put a second one together while i did the forst one. He was trying so hard but being new and expensive i made him wait for dad buy he could do it i bet if i let him. He watched the video hard woth me so he can do it. It is super easy for sure. 8 screws per buard to screw to heat sink and 2 bolts for driver. Then connect a fee wires and done. I got faith in u. U can do it

Hey Dog, I forgot to ask. Is that plant in the photo an auto? If so did you top it a couple of times and then LST?

Feminized photos, I’ve only grown autos twice. First grow was OG Kush. I also grew 2 Northern Lights autos on last grow. Didn’t really want to but seed company accidentally sent me autos and I had already dropped my other seeds before I realized they were autos.
