I also have 2 plant going Sour Jack and Crown Royal Female seed. There under a fluorescent grow light that I got at the store with those jiffy pot kits. I hope the light will work till i get my other lights. The par reading is 80 question is is that enough par for them to pop out and see the light. They germinated ok before going into dirt Maybe someone can help me out with this question. That is all for today I will be back with an update in a few days hope you guys will fallow this journal.

Hello Well today I got my lights 850 watts led the Chinese led light with a warranty of 5 years. I plug one in a wow blinding for sure will do a par reading on these this week. I got 8 of them for a good price because I wanted to document all this including the lights so they agreed to let me have them for almost half the price. shipping was a week no more fed ex guy was freaking out ask me what was in the boxes.
My duty for all 8 was 75 Can dollars not bad. I have 3 cats with me and I got there new tick and flea collars from Bayer these are very expensive and effective collars they work great. All three of them cost me 130 Can dollars my duty was 40 bloody dollars man It was my turn to freak out. Anyways will be adding pictures of the light on my next update. I dont think I need 8 lights for a 10x10 grow tent Now im waiting for my fluorescent bulbs flower power suppose to help increase THC by 5% will see when the time comes. they will be here tomorrow. I update soon

I got more lights today florescent tube T8 now to get some fixture for them. My 4 Babies are doing ok except one that cant seem to find its way to the light its a Crown royal. I'm using one of my cabinets for the nursery. will send up pictures of that later on today. Lots of equipment and no room for it lol. Small recap I Got my Grow Tent from grow Canada great shipping fast really fast 2 days it was at my door and package is discreet.
Led Grow lights from China 850 watts led cobs with manual settings for seedling veg and flower dim switches 8 of those light shipping was 1 week customer service no complaint. My t8 came from SOLACURE Shipping 5 days customer service fantastic.. I'm not here to advertise . Just what i'm using for my grow

Update.
Well I got all my equipment I'm ready to get my show on the road. I will post some pictures of the baby plants there doing fine under my light. I have the light set at seedling stage till I start seeing then go into to veg My current temp is 76 to 82 degrees and humidity at 30 pictures will fallow. My 850 watts grow is working out ok I have it on a timer and I haven't seen anything bad so far to early to recommend But the company I got them from BrightSun are nice people they reply back in less then a day, ask for Liana if interested tell them Ken sent you. The shipping was rely fast and surprisingly cheap. Sure I could of went with expensive lights but I wanted to give these guys a chance. These lights give out great par reading 12 band full spectrum. I also have a few grow bulbs that are E 27 24 watts I was blown away to see how bright these lights are, par reading was amazing at 5 feet. Again will post pictures of these light. I plan on using them for my plants that I brought in for the winter from garden regular plants. My fluorescent bulbs that I will be using to so "call" increase TH level are not set up until I move to my new home. Well that's it for now will post latter today with pictures
Oh anyone know of a good video camera for youtube posting nothing to expensive what you guys using

I'm in the midle of packing things My house is up for sale and i cant fully show all my stuff that bought from Canada grow and the rest of the companies that i bought my equipment. Wife freaking out told me I should of waited but you know how it goes.
I have a room i can put up my tent but when people come to visit they will get scarred thinking that I'm growing and house may be full of mold. So at this time will just show you all my small grow closet with the led light from bright sun i have 8 of these lights 850 watts i can images having them all setup what a grow room would look like so far the led working great no issue here its on timer.
I also took one of my other light that i got from Dawson electronics for a plant that I had outside that i brought in for the winter this light has some serious par reading. its like being on another planet when I go into the spare bedroom when lights on
My babies are doing great there getting stronger everyday cant wait to see new leave then I know my light is at the right settings.
If anyone is reading or interested i would like to hear feed back this is the first time I do a journal.

November 7 2017. Having a little trouble getting the girls adjusted but I got some answers from the other side thanks guys. My girls are slow and some of the guys on the forum were saying that it mite just be to little humidity so I will try to get it up. I also had a heating pad under them and that also mite be the trouble so tonight i stop the baby pad and will try to get humidity up high 45 to 55. My lights setting as of now is full seedling and just about 5 or 6 on the veg side the lumens are 450 26 inches from canopy 850 watts equivalent to 1200 HPS. Its trial and error its first time inside cant wait for spring.
