Where to get lights
    #138452 - 10/30/08 10:47 AM (15 years, 5 months ago)

Hey, this is probably a stupid question, but there's still not an abundance of posts on this site yet (search feature didn't turn up much).  I was thinking of getting an hps light, but I have no idea where to go.  Buying online is not an option for me, by the way.  Would a gardening store have them?  I'm assuming walmart would not.  Also, is there any kind of common fluorescent light that I could use?  I'm kind of low on cash, and this would be a lot easier to find also.  I need it for the veg stage (if that matters).  I heard 6500 spectrum lights, but I can't find any lights that look like they would work.  So if anyone knows if fluorescent lights are available in that spectrum, please let me know. :happyweed:

Is there anywhere more discrete?  I'm paranoid as fuck about those stores.  I was just reading about people getting followed by cops, busted, etc.

If I could find some kind of fluorescent light that I could pick up from a normal store, that'd be the best for me.

I think y'all need to look up the definition for pedophile.

The only places that sell lights acceptable for bud is hydro stores?  That kinda sucks.

if your really paranoid like that u could prolly go to lowes or something i think they carry 35 watt floros or something you could buy like 8 of them that'd grow some decent weed. then again that'd probably look just as suspicious as going to a hydro store.

I have no credit cards, or paper trails of any type.  I guess I could money order some shit again, but I'd rather go to the hyrdo shop if it comes down to those two options.  Yeah, 8 lights would be a lot to run.  I guess I'll just go check out all of the stores around and go to a hyrdo shop as a last resort.  The only one that I found is one hell of a ways away. :shrug: Oh well, thanks for the help anyways guys.

Edit: @ wowitch: really man?  How much you looking for it?

I'd definitely go for that deal if I could afford it right now, wow

Yeah I don't even remember my old email.

I found some 6500K fluorescents, I assume that they would work.  They pretty low wattage compared to hps though.  They're only 40 watts.  I assume it'll work, at least for a while (till I can afford better, I guess)

That's what I thought...

My jackass room mate won't listen, so he doesn't wanna throw down on an 'overpriced light that isn't any better.'  So I guess I'll be paying for it by myself.

I'm like, come on man, do you really think all of these people with experience don't know what they're talking about?  lol, that's alright though  :bigjoint:

Your roomate is a fucking dumbass who knows nothing.

Order your shit discreetly from http://www.texashydroponics.com/ using MO to a different address not associated with you or the grow.

just be fucking safe and think about all angles.
