Just bend her down, you'll get there easily as I had a big stretch and managed to get by without problems!
I only got one leaf burned when the plant touched the LED directly, there wasn't any damage when the leaves were like an inch below the lights. Really good stuff, those LEDs.

Yeah, just rolled a blunt. Sadly the strain was very weak for me in terms of potency and high.
New cab coming but this will take half a year or so, nothing planned until then, sadly.

edhorin, it is great that you're so interested in growing, and led in particular.

the best thing you can do before you purchase equipment is go to LED subforum (in lighting forum section) and read through. especially the 'sticky' threads.
the more you read prior to your first grow, the better results you will achieve

good luck and happy growing

tebos, peace to you my friend

Thanks for info but i am so bad in english can you link me the 3d? i promise i will learn english better

 

[tebos]

Hey Edhorin, your links aren't working for me. You could take a look at ebay for the LEDs, you'll find the names of the specific parts in the first post of this thread.

Best to you too, NKOTS!

Kudos, Tebos!

Could you post the exact measurements of the trash bin? Zentimeter's are fine...

@dr.prox Thanks!

As for lighting, I'm using 2x Cree XM-L T3 7C (warm white) and 1x XM-L T6 3C (neutral white), each running at 1A, netting a good 1000Lumens at 115lm/W making it twice as efficient as regular CFLs.
Here is a picture of the "reflector" I'm using (made of paper).

What kind of controller do you use for your LEDs? Is it necessary? Or can i just hook up a power supply?

Nice thread!

1. How did you attach heatsink to the top lid? Just double stick tape and hot glue around the edges?

2. Where did you source the heatsink? I took apart 2 14w led bulbs and want to use them on aluminum heatsink.

3. Did you use any intake holes, or just strictly exhaust fan? Is intake even needed in grow this small?

CHeers!
