  They're MarsHydro 300W LEDs. :)

Updated with your recommendations!

Praxxus got me into growing in the first place, and his Facebook page is super helpful if you have questions. I'd take him over John any day.

Hey boys and girls!   I am doing an experiment - to grow four varieties of pepper plants indoors under LED lighting throughout the year. Since LEDs don't get as hot as HPS or HID bulbs, I feel like they could stand the Texas summer better than anything else. All of these will be planted outside...

Not much to report here - everything is looking fine, though I culled one of the Tepin x Lemon Drops and Yellow Fatalii peppers since they were looking something awful. Also, I trimmed back four of the monster leaves on my 7 Pot Chocolate BS to encourage growth since they were probably using up...

Oh man, it's probably too late to get in on this thing.

  Yes I did! You can find the plans here: http://thehomestead.guru/turn-your-trash-into-black-gold-with-this-amazingly-simple-vermicompost-system/

  Thanks! It's actually just with my phone - a Galaxy S4. Pretty decent camera on that little thing. :P

Video up!  

Yes, actually!    I made the step to move the entire grow op into the closet because of the heat, but the temperatures dropped again so I gave it another thought.   The smaller plants were not getting good light coverage and were starting to yellow on the lower leaves, so I moved them back under...

Hopefully they enjoy their window seating!

Updated my grow situation to better meet the needs of my smaller plants, which weren't getting adequate light from the more spotlight-esque LED.    

  Lol the LEDs I got with my tax return money - they were a steal, too!

The grow has moved LED permanently given how hot the HPS is getting - just can't stomach running it anymore. WAY too hot:      

Those pots look straight out of Event Horizon's design book - cool as hell though!   Nice plants b0ss, looking forward to more.

These hi-res pics make my phone camera feel inadequate!

That is quite the collection of healthy-looking sprouts! You got a small farm running there.

  Go for it, then! They are great for growth, and generate lots of heat for the plants during the winter. This thing was a blessing when it was below freezing at night, but now it's staying near 50F outside and it's just not feasible anymore.

That's always the trade-off isn't it? We love our babies but just don't have room for them all! And you always want more and more...

  The HPS is 400W. It's making the room real hot and I gotta get those plants out from under it quick!
