Hello all at THC talk

Excited to come back (semi-experienced horticulturist; ex-lurker) after an extended break of around 3 years and cant wait to read up on how far home growing has come over the past few years.

My main aim is to see how far led lighting technology has come, the last experience i had with them was a spectrum king which was okay but nothing to shout home about when cost is factored in, and apparently the mars(hydro?) led wasn't performing as well as claimed so I kind of gave up on them for a while. Also looking forward to seeing what Buzz Lightyear has been up to!

Lately though I have come across a few that have caught my eye with their claims, Horticulture Lighting Group lights and the Spider Farmer ones but I have come to understand that building your own quantum board is possible so I will make building one my aim, also I would like to see what kind of no till set ups are around, I would gratefully accept any links or pointers.

Thank you for taking the time to read, and if you do, contribute to this great forum which I am honestly happy to see is still thriving.

LED's have come a long way indeed.

Hello and thank you IceCalibur and Hotshot, I appreciate the replies.

Thanks for the offer, I did try to remember my old account name but no luck and I would prefer as fresh start as I only had minimal interaction on the last one, the site was used as an encyclopedia!

Not a problem at all, and you'll be happy to know Bud Lightyear is still around

Thanks Ice Calibur, I went on my way to find him but haven't made my way out of the introductions section of the forum yet, I created this post over an hour ago!

Looking forward to this

Mental note: Bud NOT Buzz.

Welcome bud,I looked into the LED's back about 9-10 years ago and gave up on them,from what I've seen they have come as far as autoflower strains have so I've been looking around at LED's myself as well.
