Ive just been busy m8. My space is tight when its full. I made a cool watering system. Got a 120l drum attached to a hose which has a stick gaffer taped to the hose. I can water now without entering the room and removing plants. Gotta love gravity.lol

PH of the medium may be a bit off. Give it some straight water (you want about 10% run off), monitor for continued burn over the next couple of days, then light feed and back to schedule.

Hi guys first post on forum but read just about every page lol a cpl quick questions for u

1 I'm going to be growing 2 plants I have a 600 wt hps with ballast I know this is enough but what I would really like to know is for veg could I possibly get away with using a cfl or 2 and is a cfl just a energy saving bulb ?? And if so what wattage bulb should I be looking at thanks in advance boys and girls :-)

You can use cfls, but if you are growing two plants I would also recommend veggin them under that 600. If you are looking at the economics you can veg under cfls fine, but to get the same amount of growth the 600 will wipe away almost any amount of cfls (and I assume you are meaning to just buy a few) you need at least 100-150w to veg min, which means you would need at least 5 x 23w cfl the energy saving lights 4100 - 6500kelvin (blue light, some companies call it cool light). The time factor you spend vegging them will also be grately reduced with the 600.
Peace, DST

EDIT, oh, and welcome to RIU and the UK Growers thread!

Well it may be an idea to set up the cfl to start them off with (although seedlings are strong buggers and can handle a 600!) You can clone on if you find a strain you want to keep growing as well. Good luck.
