Hi everyone.
I've only been growing indoors since last year (when my outdoor garden was attracting too much attention).
We've built a 1.2mx1.2mx2m grow box and started off with a 600w HPS light. It was fine last year because we didn't grow in summertime when the heat is a problem (in Mallorca).
This year we did 2 grows January thru May, then started again 6 weeks ago. This time the heat is doing my brains in!
We've had to leave a door of the box open and direct an extra fan in to try and reduce the heat (plus humidifier/iced water/etc.)
So I'm seriously considering going down the LED route, but I'm a techically dumb OAP, so advice is desperately needed.
From reading various sites this morning, the VipaSpectra seemed good - but what does anybody out there who really knows think?
