I dont believe in overkill. Ill probably have 80 bucks wrapped up into this FC buts its worth it to me. Plus i had a lot of the stuff just laying around to start with.

On the LED subject I have a lumigrow pro series. Probably best led I've owned. Costly but you got to pay to play. But for nugs I still love my 1k hps.

Hypoaspis Miles (predator) is the only thing that works for gnats and works well.
Spray Einsteins oil(don't skimp with cheaper products) weekly for the mites and this will handle any powdery mildew too, unless you have a radical temp drop at lites out(condensation is a bitch).
Keep plants under 3 feet unless you have side lighting or have small wispy buds.(initiate bloom when they are 18-24")
Charcoal filters because the smell will get you caught before the heat signature.
Vent up a chimney or get some of that FLIR resistant material.
If your really worried about heat signatures go with LEDs but your harvest weight will suffer.
It's been my experience that the smell is the biggest factor.
Id rather have to grow more to make up for my loss than go to prison because of a stupid light.
Then grow outdoors.
I know from experience bigger plants do not give more bud indoors.
Try it you will see.
The only way to do it is side lighting or bend the branches to the floor and lower the lights.
Flowers have to be within 2" of the light , study up on how light is lost exponentially.
And recommended light per foot.
May I recommend Jorge Cervantes 'Growers Bible' haven't found to many questions that book can't answer about growing herb.

Kind of off topic, but lots of good info on LED's here! http://donklipstein.com/led.html
-------------------- -Grain to Grain - Will never use another method as long as this is an option.
-Coir - Cheap/Effective/EASY
-Monotubs - So hands free Edward Scissorhands could do this shit.
-SAB - See Coir.

LEDs suck, don't fall for it.
They are great for spectrum. They suck on intensity.
Way too expensive.
I am sure they'll get better and cheaper in time(everything does)
I'll wait until someone shows me some good bud from them before I make that plunge.
I have gone full circle in growing styles.
Started indoors because I was renting. Grew good weed, but expensive on equipment and power.
Got my own house, grew outdoors. Dealt with rippers until I set up motion sensors and caught that bastard(another story)
Had some silly brain storm last year and built a green house. Fall and spring produce outstanding crops. Summer crop suffers from heat and humidity from swamp cooler. Winter just not enough free light.
Long story short I am going back to nature(outdoors) huge plants, less bugs/molds and minimal expense.

Get this book(best advice) I wore the cover off of my first one I used it so much. I grow the dankest in my circle

Ummmm....This is mushroom cultivation, not weed cultivation.
For cultivating mushrooms the intensity is not as important as the color temperature.

There is this dude on youtube who compared led and hid lighting side by side. The technology is here. He had pretty impressive results. The buds on the led side were a little smaller. So when factoring power consumption and heat production the Led's won. Check out the omega garden /volksgarden setups. They are wild as fuck.

Trust me he is a salesman.
Harvest wieght suffers tremendously.
I live in a community of growers and know first hand.
You figure the price of those LEDs coupled with crappy harvests and where is the savings.
Trust me people are jumping ahead of technology here, wait they will get better and cheaper.

Well the techy response is build your own led arrays to cut cost. A 400 watt computer power supply or better is all you need. Ill bet you a dime to a donut that I could match the luminous output of your 1K hid for under 400$.

Failed to mention, these LEDs are outstanding for vegitative growth Just no good for flowers

Depends how you grow. I have a led from lumigrow pro series. And I can run a sea of green with great gpw. But you not growing monsters. You growing a lot of clones that average a quarter to half ounce a clone.
For my bigger plants I use a 1k hps.
