    What is the ideal HPS Light for my little Tent?

    I would think if you use a cool tube hood and a 6" inline fan @ 400cfm you should be ok with a 400w, I have a 31"x31"x72" tent and use two 4" inline fans @ 165cfm each for exhaust (one venting my 400w MH/HPS and one hooked to a carbon scrubber), I also have 2 small fans inside to keep the air...

    What is the ideal HPS Light for my little Tent?

    Well a 400w light would be alot of heat in that size tent, I would think you would have to use a cool tube light fixture and have some good venting to keep temps from getting to hot. A 150w HPS puts of about 16000 lumes and a 250w HPS puts out about 29000 lumes, if you are going to to be growing...

    planted 2 ak48 friday...impatient noob...

    When misting with plain water i do it when the light is on and off (but just an hour or so before light is to come on), as long as temps are ok and you have pleanty of air movement you will be fine, your mildew might be because of lack of air flow. I do stop misting a few weeks into flowering...

    planted 2 ak48 friday...impatient noob...

    Well if you put a little more soil around them to help support the stem, they could be a little shocked as they are trying to grow more roots from newly covered stem.(they will grow roots from the section you covered,a good thing) I would use a spray bottle and give them a good heavy misting a...

    planted 2 ak48 friday...impatient noob...

    This is what I would do, as I am growing some AK48 right now (mine r on day 33 of flower) You can add some soil now and it wont hurt anything (just add enough to support the stem a bit more. You will have to add more light at some point if your growing to grow two plants. I can tell you that...

    Growing 4 plants

    I have grown Barneys Farm LSD and its a good strong strain. Easy to veg, but requires lots of "P" in flower. Mine also had some cal-mag issues, so adding cal-mag plus @ 1tsp per gallon on every watering should keep you from have that issue. The best bang for the buck is to paint your walls with...

    Help and advice for newbie wanna be grower

    WOW that seem like alot of $$ to run a 400w setup, but then again I have no idea what your rate per Kw is. Did you come up with that amount factring in 18 hours on for say the first 4 weeks, then only 12 hours on the next 8-10. My 400w cost be on average about $20-25 dollars a month, some power...

    Help and advice for newbie wanna be grower

    You can use either one, the yield will be better with the 400w setup and the tent size sounds perfect for either wattage you get. I grow for my own use in a tent (32"x32"x72") witrh a 400w MH/HPS. I can tell you that a 400hps puts off alot of heat, so think about venting your light or tent as I...

    "GROW BIG" during Flowering?

    I use all the Fox Farm products, and YES you can give them Grow big during flowering. Look at the Fox Farms web site and check the feeding schedule. They recommend Grow Big in the 3rd anf 4th week for flowering. Plants do still need some Nitrogen during the flowering process. I use Grow Big, Big...

    Pruning the top 1 week into flower...

    Supercrop that plant, dont start over. You really dont want to top after the plant has started to flower........I have done it early in flower with Fem seeds and have not had any issues, but it does seem to prolong the time it takes to finish. I would Supercrop it, I just supercropped one of my...

    Bottom leaves yellowing, wondering if its any form of deficiency

    I really dont see any issues, in the pic they do look like they are due for a watering, but it sounds as if your watering correctly. I like to water mine every 3 or so days too. I always water untill I get a good amount of run off, you might want to add some larger drip trays under the pots so...

    Starting 9th Week in to Flowering - Buds Look Small

    I agree, it looks as if you have a few more weeks to go until the buds are ripe. I dont think your going to see a great deal of increase in yield as the plant looks really streched out as your spacing between each node is alot. I will say the plant looks really healthy and I think what you have...
