If you have any interest in indoor growing for weed or food or whatever you can get various LED grow lamps super cheap. This one is a 300 watt that I have used to grow bell and chili peppers and currently it's growing medical marijuana. If you go to alibaba.com you can get them in bulk as well.

I know little about weed: can you grow the stuff just as well on LEDs as you can on those incandescent lights that draw so much electricity?

I have thread about this topic here.

Me too. There's a large variety of stuff on there and I'm interested to see how well the germination rate is and if it actually looks even remotely close to the pictures.

Any recommendations for grow lights?

I actually just received my new 300 from Mars Hydro. Quieter than my other light and not as harsh on the eyes. I have new plants starting so we'll see if there's much of a difference.

I can safely say that the Mars Hydro light I bought is pretty legit and the landscaping store I work for who is trying to break more into hydroponics is looking to pick up some units. Anyone who is looking for a relatively inexpensive LED grow light should check them.

Just got my grow tent. Because Mars Hydro warehouses in Canada, I paid for the order last Monday and got it yesterday. I suggest looking for sellers who have multiple warehouses since I generally get everything in a week at most.

As for the tent everything is pretty solid and the whole package had good weight to it. The cover looks okay so far but I have to wait a bit before I can properly assemble it. Then I'll hook the light up and give it a whirl.

You must be seriously into heirloom tomatoes.:eyepop:

I work at a landscaping store that's starting to branch out into hydroponics (which is why they brought me on) and I've found asking people if they're growing "medicinal tomatoes" usually breaks the ice well.

To be honest I want to get another tent and grow spaghetti squash in it.

It arrived today!! She's the gray version. SHE SO SOFT AND SMOOTH IN EVERY DIRECTION I PET, JUST LIKE A REAL SHARK. I LOVE HER SO MUCH. The eyes and gills are machine stitched and very symmetrical. The mouth is a lil tuft of soft felt. I don't know how accurate she is, but she is a shark with fins and eyeballs and I am happy.

Don't forget you can buy loose tea that is mixed with other things that don't taste like tea to make the tea taste like the things that don't taste like tea. Like hibiscus, or blueberries, or chocolate. Chocolate black tea is really good.

If you're looking at electronics or electric things in general on Aliexpress one thing to do is to add "UL" or "UL Registered" at the end of your searches. If they're actually listed with Underwriters Limited then they've gotten certs and should be safe. If you don't see UL shown/listed then I'd steer clear. Note that a lot of vendors will be cert for the EU but not for NA.
