Wish u would joined the thread sooner... lol I have a Cree rig with 12 engines and 3x 320h 2100b... but now I wanna build a quantum board rig for my tent... lol.. if I can just get this bud to dry... lolHey MA folks! I'm building some lights from scratch. I'm going with CXB's because they are tried and true, and honestly I just want to get these up and growing.
I'll be ordering soon from Alibaba and building multiple light fixtures, running 6 COBs on a HLG240-1050 for 3x3 areas. If you want to buy our stuff together to save on shipping and maybe a lower bulk price, let me know. We could talk about me building it for you if you wanted as well. I like the community building and would do it for free with a future promise of some cuts or flower.
For shopping at hydro stores, the one in Medford has pretty good prices. Ocean Forest (38.6 dry qts) for $20, Grow Big 1qt for $20 as price checkers.
I usually source most of my stuff online got that amazon prime lol comes in handy but I'm no fool I do compare prices for example that trim bin was on amazon for 53.. hydro store 60 and he includes trimmers.. those gotta be at least 7 bucks the guano is same price like the rest of the stuff and best part no tax.. amazon charges tax in mass if anybody was wondering.. lol.. been on the go all day time to hit chilax button...First piece of advice; there's isn't a damn thing at the hydro store that you can't get cheaper somewhere else, usually by half or better. ESPECIALLY nutes!
It's pot. Treat it like tomatoes and you'll succeed. Do your wallet a favor and stay away from hydro stores.
DAHAMMMMMMMMMMMMM....a lot of work, but we love it dont we? great job!!!....Thanks for the northampton info, gona check it out now, going for card on school vacation in a few weeks Oh good, Im not considered a Troll!Made my move last night- plants were maxed out on height- So had to cut scrog screen, drop frame, remove lights,pump,heater;just to get girls out without damage-then drain res(13 gal.) and move to big tent(4' by 8') Like going from studio apt. to McMansion setup under 2 600wt. HPS and checked with light meter to get best coverage. Haul 15 gal.water from upstairs,mix nutes, and refill.Ran light off schedule(4:30 am.) and off to bed.Checked temps this morning and avg. 79 deg. so no issue overheating( have exhaust running full time) checked PPM (thought my meter had crapped out) only to realize that it only reads 3 digits max- it was saying 104(WTF?) Tested plain water-120ppm?. Then saw tiny figure on readout flashing saying x10 so I was at 1040 LOL, so minus water ppm, I was golden(Senior moment LOL). Figure at least 30-40 more days. I'm at 45 now.Hopefully done with stretch, and start to fatten up.

Nothing testing pH, started with organic Mechanix seed starter, not a huge fan of it. The bottom leaves are yellow, but the new growth is all healthy green once I started feeding Biothrive Grow.welcome!!! I am just a newbie myself, but from the pic your leaf tips seem a little yellow. what soil are you using? are you testing PH? are you using any nutes yet?
Im glad...like I said I am new and dont know shit from shinola....LOL....but saw the yellow.Nothing testing pH, started with organic Mechanix seed starter, not a huge fan of it. The bottom leaves are yellow, but the new growth is all healthy green once I started feeding Biothrive Grow.
Yikes, I dream mine will get like thatGirls are liking new house- buds rocking just overnight-everything dialed in- drank 1 gal. since yesterday evening- gonna start some Pineapple Kush soon in little tent.
I've seen schedules where people grow sog's that just wait a week into veg to flip. Of course, it's confusing since a lot of growers don't consider the first two weeks as true veg, so it's hard to know how many days out of seed they are talking. I'd give it a couple of weeks at least. It can take that long just to establish their sea legs.Yikes, I dream mine will get like that
I decided to throw the ladies into 12/12 now. I just want to experience flower sooner and mess around. Timer set for 5am on...(of course so I can peek at them all day!) and 5pm off. Lets see
how this goes. Anyone else doing 12/12 "from seed"? Sybil my easykush has 2 weeks veg under her belt, but Hazel my white widow will break the soil under 12/12.
