sorry for posting,wont be bak
huh? i'm confused.

anyhow, brief written update. All are doing well. I just been giving the big girls 650 ppm nutes every time that i water them (not big on the whole feast or famine watering technique... but we'll see.)

Today's Safety Tip:

Make sure to check the bottoms of your shoes when you leave ur garden and go outside the grow room / house, etc. You don't want to carry a weed leaf onto your front porch... that would go bad when an officer is knocking on your door. And don't ever put a leaf (like a yellow leaf) in your pocket temporarily... it may get pulled out at an in-opportune time if you forget about it. Be Careful !! :D

heheh.

Hopefully i just successfully re-wired one of my 1000w HPS ballasts and will be able to start using that again instead of the back-up (will find out later tonight when the lights come on).... then i'll be able to use the back-up ballast with a 1000w Metal Halide conversion bulb in the center of the room to supplement the 4 HPS bulbs. I'll also use the conversion bulb over the clones when they get bigger. And that'll be good for me since i just got my electric bill and it was just over <gasp> 600 bones. That'll be reduced by a third next month though since i just asked for (and got) a lower kwH rate. Going from around 19 cents per kwh to around 12.5 cents per kwh (doh!!!). They didn't come to me... i had to go to them and threaten to find a new provider.

So don't be afraid to ask for a lower Rate if someone else you know is paying less for electricity !

electricty is so fucked up out here ... we pay for the power .08-.10
and then we have to pay for it all again because it was "delivered" @ .12
and then theres the service charge of 10 for the month for .... charging me for service i guess ?

in the end it comes out to be like .22kwh

btw- you got some freaky avatars .... last one was a little less... but this one looks like a chicks body with a dudes head ?

Pic 1: I studied a calendar for a very long time and came to the conclusion that i am smoking too much weed lately :D so, anyways, today was actually day 19 for the first batch of clones (day 9 for the second batch).

Pic 2: Helicopter view of the new 1000w MH Conversion bulb in the center of the 4 HPS. Also pictured is a new sulphur vaporizer. And the new 13,000 btu portable a.c. unit. After the picture, I moved some plants a bit more into the isle to better take advantage of this light.

Pic 3: Day 18 of flowering for this White Russian fairly strong auto-flower. Other plants are bigger right now but their buds are smaller than these for the time being.

I'll add that if you own a dog or dogs, make sure to give them a once over after trimming your newly harvested buds! Amazing how many clippings can get stuck to their coats!

Looks great gambler. Just a thought, but you might try hanging the 1000mh in the middle open with out the cool tube, since you don't have the cool tube hooked up. I was just thinking it might spread more light over all the plants. Any way, just a thought, lookin good man. I should have pics of mine up later tonight.

right right. this was one that the glass broke during shipping... i'm just using the reflector 'cuz its in a horizontal position, no glass. I thought about just suspending it vertically... but thought i'd get more useable lumens horizontal over the garden w/the reflector.

i was just looking at how nice it would be to have a couple 600's between the two rows of 1000's :D ... must ... say ... no ... to .... more .... lighting !!! Damn, maybe next crop. I'm broke.
