24/7 250w MH.. i will be upgrading it to a 400w soon (have to purchase 400w first)

The soil isnt that soaked.. there is no more water to squeeze out. It is just extremely moist all the way through.

for sure.. the pot feels like it weighs 25lbs.. if I stick the moisture meter in halfway it goes off the charts.. and its been like this for 5-6 days

here it is..

Tried this with another plant already... it did not go well, the plant died. I do not want to risk it. The plant is my only feminized one, so I really dont want to have to try to transplant it and shock it anymore possibly kill it. Are there any other options?

I can do this.. but I dont think there is gonna be any sunlight for a few days, its gonna be raining for the next week.. and its always really humid here anyway

I flushed my plants almost 5 days ago due to pH issues. They are in FFOF and are still very young, only about 2 1/2 weeks old. The problem is, they were already overwatered prior to the flush.. and now the soil is still very saturated. I read somewhere that if the roots sit in the moist soil...

Stupid me, I had leaned on the power cord... let it cool down for a few mins and it started right back up (the MH conversion bulb).. its working fine now :wall:

I like 80s thrash.. but I'm into all kinds of metal (as long as it is from before 1990, anything after just isnt REAL metal). Trying to come up with only 3 favorites is pretty difficult so I'll throw in a few more.. hope I'm not disqualified 1. Saxon 2. At War 3. Vio-lence 4. Hallows Eve 5...

Conversion bulb in a HPS ballast (S50?) the bulb says it works in an S50 ballast, and thats what mine is. It is working fine again.. but the arc tube glows all the different colors of the rainbow when it first starts up

Mine goes nuts... bright red, blue, orange.. all diff colors burning in there till it turns whitish/yellowish/blue.. takes a while too like 5 mins

Apparently its not even broken, I just didnt give it enough time to restart.. it works now. But one thing I never noticed.. do MH arc tubes always glow crazy red and yellow neon colors when you turn them on?

I have been running my brand new 250w metal halide conversion bulb for maybe a week 24/7 in a floralux 250w HPS fixture from HTGsupply. All of a sudden today, it burns out.. On the inside of the arc tube I can see all this green crusty stuff and a little bit of brown caked onto the glass, it...

Sounds like a good idea, only my plants are only 2 weeks old and I don't want them to stretch.

nope, and there is no where near enough fluro in there... I've got 8 plants (babies) in the grow space. They are gonna have to stay under the HPS for quite a while, more than two weeks.. as HTGsupply cant ship me my 400w light that I ordered till then. I am like flat broke now and cant even...

Thanks.. shooting is one of my favorite hobbies. Anyway, so i can keep them under the HPS until I get a new bulb and it wont hurt them? I'm all stressed now, because I just flushed my plants (they are babies and the pH was off) today too so they weren't looking to good, maybe a lil shocked. I...

well thats very uplifting =/ I can get another bulb on monday for like 85 bucks cuz my local hydro shop is way overpriced.. will they be ok under the HPS till then??

Ordered it from texas off the internet.. I;d have to drive for about 7 days straight. The soonest I could get a new bulb is monday, they will have to sit under 250w HPS till then. Shit, I hope they will be alright with the sudden change in spectrum

It is a HPS ballast, built in ballast fixture, the bulb was a MH conversion bulb. I am broke, I cant get any cfls right now. I put the light back on them with the HPS bulb instead. The light had a glass lense so no water got on the bulb. It looks like the gas cooked off on the inside of it or...

My light just went off.. starting making a buzzing noise. It is only 2 weeks old, been on 24/7. 250w florasun from HTGsupply with an EYE MH conversion bulb. The bulb looks like its got some greenish orangish liquid in it or something?? what the hell happened, what I am gonna do? I have a HPS...
