Cover material: flame retardant PC
Color temperature: 3500-6500K


Features:

2) Lifetime over 50,000 hours
3) Use only the exact spectrums required for plant photosynthesis
4) Built-in ventilation fans with a "easily removable" feature so that when a mechanical problem happens with the fans, it can be replaced independently!
5) Built-in thermo-sensitive devices cut off power supply when over-heating happens, either due to high ambient temperature or ventilation fans problem.
6) The low heat emission eliminates the need for ducting & heat exhaust fans
7) Ideal for all phases of plant growth, and works well with any indoor garden, whether hydroponics or soil based

Well I'm back :)

He is an brief update. Wife had a hard time when I was gone !! Only 2 of the clones made it so I transplanted them right when I got home and cleaned up the dead ones extra !!

The main plants looks good but she may have over watered them or perhaps not enough or to close to lights. Hard to say lol I will take pics of those after. It is still looking good but may trim some of the lower fan leafs.

On another note while on vacation I purchased some more stuff. DNF Bloom, Can filter and 430W HPS with high effeciency electronic HID ballast :) I do plan on testing both HPS and LED right away BUT would you believe when I was setting up the HPS it worked great so I unplug it. When I got home I thought I would let it run for 12 hours to see what kind of heat to expect but it wouldn't work. Come on for 5 seconds then nothing. After close inspection the inner tube had a crack in it. Not sure how one would appear so soon after setting it up. Odd I must say so I called the company and will get a few in stock just incase .. lol

Anyway I will post more pics shortly !! Still tired as hell. Drove straight home took 24 hours :( No one said I was smart !!

Peace ;)~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Oh yea for sure !! I started to trim so of the lower branches to clean it up and expose the lower nods ;) Took 4 more from the bottom that didn't have a chance which are in the dome :) Plan on cleaning up some more of the branches to expose more nods.

On another note with winter coming I wanted to have a fully operational room and I sure once I get going will find the tent limited !! The room the tent is in could be made into a flowering room 10 x 5. All I would have to do is add a 5 foot wall with a door ;) Venting the room would be easier then the tent and the space would be awesome. Wife had already suggested it once so we will see !!

I intend on using a 6-girl hydro kit. 90w Led Illuminator and 8 CFL's around the kit in a uniform pattern, to give light on the lower levels of the canopy. And the Led can take on the top. Now just working on what would be a good ventilation setup to best fit my needs. Would the 90w ufo be enough for all 6 girls? The website says its good for 25 square feet..
