    What kind of exhaust are you using for the HPS?

    250w HPS Club And Help Guide

    Interesting. Thank you for your knowledge. :-P How big is your room? Mine is very small. My box will be in my closet. The intakes will only have aluminum screening so I don't want to risk keeping the door open (and letting light in when there shouldn't be) to keep temperatures good in the...

    TheSnoo420L Where'd you get that fan? For Soil: Fox Farm Ocean Forest is the best I hear.... It's what I'll be using. I could use some help with exhaust. Swing by my thread sometime. https://www.rollitup.org/indoor-growing/128326-closet-grow-box-cfl-lowryder.html#post1591043

    Closet grow box--CFL--Lowryder #2

    Same here GG! That could have been bad. So I made a trip to town today to pick up some supplies. I grabbed many little things needed. Such as an emergency blanket to use as reflective material, a light timer, digital thermometer, and items needed to build a carbon filter. Are pH tester and...

    250w HPS Club And Help Guide

    So I've come to the realization that I'm most likely going to need a cool tube for my 250 in my box. Any plans or pictures of cool tubes on 250's that you'd suggest?

    Surrounding with CFLs, but how much wattage for veg? flower?

    Hey buddy. Welcome to RIU. I'll soon be doing my first grow and am choosing CFL's for vegging as well, but a 250 watt HPS for flowering. I heard using CFLs for flowering produce fluffy nugs and not much yield so I went with the HPS. That quad setup is nice but most I've seen only have 2 over...

    250w HPS Club And Help Guide

    Thank you! Some say go 1 big indica, others Lowryder. So, I'm still in the market. I agree t is a small place and I feel ever one big plant would fill it up quickly even with LST. I'll keep you updated and will be asking many questions I'm sure!

    250w HPS Club And Help Guide

    Hey guys, I recently got a 250 watt HPS bulb, reflector, and ballast. My grow area is small!: 1.5'x1.5'x4'. I'm planning on growing either 4 Lowryder #2s or one dominant indica. I really can't decide. Anyway, I'll be using CFL 2300K bulbs for vegging and then the 250 for flowering.At first I...

    Closet grow box--CFL--Lowryder #2

    Thank you so much for replying! I thought I was all alone on here. I was hoping for lots of good advice. You are right about the bulb though. I found out the 150 HPS would probably explode. I also found out that the 250 watt HPS bulb I already have may be fine. I'm working on how to correctly...

    Closet grow box--CFL--Lowryder #2

    Is there anybody out there?:confused: I bought a 150 watt HPS bulb today at Lowes. It fits the socket for the 250 HPS but I'm afraid to turn it on. Will it work?

    Closet grow box--CFL--Lowryder #2

    So my buddy gave me a 250 watt HPS today with ballast and reflector. I think 250 may be too much for my grow space but I would like to use HPS for flowering so I'm going to Lowes to look for some HPS bulbs, maybe 75 or 150 watt. Any suggestions? Will the lower wattage bulb be fine in the 250...

    Closet grow box--CFL--Lowryder #2

    Burnin down and thinking about my upcoming grow. It will be my first, but I'm not a complete newb. Bare with me... Plan I plan to grow 4 Lowryder #2's in a 1.5'x1.5'x5' box I've built to fit snug in my closet. Four 1 gallon pots fit snug in the bottom of the box. I may chose a Lowryder hybrid...

    Diesel Ryder, 400 watt Ecolite, Plagron Batmix Cupboard Grow

    I just picked up some pineapple and Miss. fabulous. Delicious! I'm thinking of doing Diesel Ryders but I hear the smell is intense during flowering. If not Diesel...Blueberry or just straight up Lowryder #2.

    Diesel Ryder, 400 watt Ecolite, Plagron Batmix Cupboard Grow

    Congrats on a successful grow! I'm about to start my first and am choosing autos due to limited space. In your opinion what is the best auto? As far as yield and best high? I was thinking Lowryder #2 or Diesel Ryder from Attitude or Nirvana. Know anything about Top 44?

    My First Grow with cfl's

    Wonderful job Doc! I've read up on the thread and dig your setup. I'm fed up with the market these days so I've decided to grow. I'm going to try something simlar (CFL all the way) but with 4 Lowryder x Diesel. I could go on and on with questions but mainly: I'm unsure on how many watts to...
