250w HPS Club And Help Guide

good Q's Hetty! I wont be any help on this one, as I make soil mixs so that I basicly only add water. But I am Trying my first coco grow using cyco plat series nutes. And I am going to use their schedule at 1/4 strength and see what happens from there. Trying it because I won the plat series for free.
 
Thanks Buds

It occurs to me that all thte feeding schedules give about 3 weeks for veg, then swap straight to bloom nutes with the 12/12 light change. But even super mature plants like mine take a few days to turn. Speaking of which, got some better pics, 10 days after flip. Using the cam corder I got for xmas to take stills, so much better than my old cam...thank you Wifey :)

What up club 250!

Been a min since I'v dropped in here, looks like there is still some dank coming out of the 250 still :D

I've upgraded a lil, but that's ok I'll never forget where I came from. I still use the 250, here's a mom that's under her.

Grow and it worked out great

As well as flower nutes? I know some brands, like Biobizz, advice grow and bloom nutes through flower?

CBT - that's what i miss about growing over buying. A proper clean trim, hobby style, no leaf!! Trying buying that!

Giggs - nice to see you. I'm also swapping to 250 for mum and clones, and a 400 for flower. But that will have to wait a few months till this grow is done and I move house
 
lurker for a while new to the growing i have a 250 DWC grow going ( Dinafem Cheese) attitude freebie seed let me know what you guys think.

Any tips or advice would be great.
 
looking good enwhy. I have always liked a good cheese. If its a hps ballast then use hps bulbs. the other 2 bulbs may not even work at all in that ballast unless its a electric ballast. the one I use can start hps or mh. my old one only did hps.
 
Thanks ct this is my first hydro grow I did some LST with zip ties and bread bag ties im just not sure how long I should wait to flower her ?

Definitely worth checking with the manufacturer before using anything other than HPS. Best way it'll work fine. Then again it may work OK, or it may work but result in premature wear of the bulbs and ballast. Worst case, could cause an electrical fault and then a fire. Safety First Kids!

Also, nice looking plant you got there. Running more than one air-stone? Love the Zebra print duct tape!!

Lol bro I don't have zebra tape it's aluminum tape for ducting the guy at home depot pretty much sold me on it over duct tape plus its reflective the only problem I'm about to run into is changing out my resume how do I do it if my.plants are tied down to my bucket
 
Your right. I saw a post around the same time, which had zebra strip duct tape, in the same place as yours...got confused.

You mean changing out your water/solution, for a whole fresh batch?
 
I am also running skywalker by dutch passion. And they are very sensitive to my nutrients compared to my other plants. Im using Gh Flora series.
