I was checking on the grow today and my light in the Clone Zone is dead! I was using an old Viparspectra that only had a working Veg light and that finally conked out today. I have a very old very weak no name 50w burple light I kept around in case of emergencies in there now but need a better replacement.
So I am looking for suggestions for a new little light that will only be used for clones and seedlings in a 1 foot by 2 foot area. And I'm growing on a budget so hopefully I can find something for less than $100.
Any suggestions?
I found a Bloom Plus 1000 on Amazon for $69 and it should be arriving Monday. Not the best light in the world, but it's just for seedlings and clones, and the price is right.
Thanks for the suggestions
I am using an ancient t5. I started a lot of companion plants and the first sage stem that comes up grows up and around the light! So super mild, Cannabis seedlings can get a bit leggy under this light. I am not going to change anytime soon.
You could go for like the ts600. Or you could build one. Both would be under 100.
For veg and clone I would say a cheap t5 would be fine.
I got a nice Vipar for my 2x4 for about 165$
