Wait, the new Lumetek ballast dont work with high-end bulbs?? Is that why my bulbs keep dieing? PS: my whole canopy is a "knot" of buds. lol. Maybe i'll just harvest tonight.

Now everything I've been talking about for the past 100 pages -- days before harvest. (I might harvest tonight, as im scared to get more rot) Anyone wonder why I got rot?? Well, this is why.

Hey Boomer. Yes, I started with 12 3 gallon pots under 1 light until they got to big for there space. I spread them apart for about 1 week of veg and then made the flip to 12/12. They defiently out grew the most efficient part of the light but it didnt seem to make a difference as I have good...

I love the ballast because I can run literally any bulb besides 1000w and it will be fine. The ballast are dead-quiet and the start-up seems to be very quick and efficient. Cheap ballast? I was under the impression Lumatek is some of the best out there right now. I got a hell of a deal on mine...

That is the TRUTH!! The older ballast (I think silver) had problems, but mine are PURPLE! The purple ones are the newest generation ones and seem to be pretty much perfect!

Hey atleast we're together now. I didnt lose to much bud to rot but it made me harvest about an ounce early, which im not to thrilled about. I watered for the last time tonight. I'm going to let them get bone-dry and harvest them in 3 days. The pics above is all I have harvested thus far...

Thanks. Everything I chopped thus far doesn't even look half as good as everything I left in the room. Today is day 70 ill let them go a little longer and then chop them. I think im going to water super heavy tonight and when they become bone-dry ill harvest them.

Hey Logan. I am using a 400mh with my Lumatek digital ballast (600w max) It is a stretchy plant for sure. I had the lights about 12 inches from the tops of the plants. I have been flushing the past 2+ weeks. I plan on harvest before the majority of the trichs are amber. Right now they're...

Thanks for the idea but im letting her dry slowly and correctly because i've never liked quick-dry methods. Anyways, im going to buy a dehumidifier tonight and put it in my room. I'll take pictures tonight. :peace:

Thanks for all the replies. I inspected most of my bud and couldn't find any. I am pretty sure I spilt water on this bad girl as my watering technique isn't the greatest. My humidity is at about 50% although I wish it was lower, I cant get it any lower without a portable dehumidifier. The...

Today I was scoping out my buds and I noticed one of big buds was rotted. I cut it off and tore it apart. It was brown inside and there was cotton-like stuff at the very middle along the stem. any ideas? I inspected everything else and couldnt find any. I think I may have spilt water on it or...

It didnt increase that much in size not nearly as much as it did in weight. hopefully I have some 14 gram nugs as by looking at them I believe I will.

Wow nice nugget!! That helps a lot.

I understand how much weight i'll end up losing im just wondering how size the buds lose after drying. Also, obviously i'll have less light with the 400w :hump: I'm pissed, stupid bulbs.

Hey guys! Thanks for the input. They still are really green and I only gave them (1) feeding of nitrogen throughout flowering. I want to let those leaves yellow up as much as possible so maybe i'll take them the full 15 days. I avoided touching the bulbs at all when installing them and they...

updated photos? :D

Thanks everyone very much! I can't wait to chop these bitches down and get another set vegging. What would everyone recommend, T5 8 bulb or 400w MH. For veg. Also, the 2nd hortilux bulb blew out tonight. Well atleast I hope its the bulb and not the ballast. I have a 400mh bulb im going to throw...

Ok starting to get happy. Today is day 62 and I hope to chop within 8-15 days. These girls are really packing on weight and well im not trying to tie them up anymore as its damn near impossible. Let me know what everyone thinks. :hump:
