why would you use a light with a color temp that high for flowering? Wouldn't you us one with a lower color temp, around 3500k?

Looking good man. I looks like you can see the crystals starting to form around the flowers. Any chance you might add another 250 watter for your next grow. I think it would be beneficial based on the area you are growing over. Don't know shit about soil,sorry dude, I grow hydro. It's my first...

Can you tell me what the height difference was between your tallest and shortest plant in your flower room? Did you start flowering them all at the same time?

wait and save up to put some money into the project. I have found that if you try to cut too many corners eventually you will regret it and you will probably end up spending more money in the long run.

I flood and drain so they wouldn't get fed. Should I Just hand water once a day or something?

please anyone... Somebody must have experience with this...

ohh shit, i read the second part wrong. My bad. So at my current temp, 78-82, is the added co2 not going to be as beneficial or effective than at a higher temp?

I have a hydro hut with a 4" exhaust hole that has been a new addition to my grow room in the last two weeks. The only fan that my local store had, that was strong enough to clear the volume of the hut three times per minute was an 8" inline fan. i have had to use a reducer as a result. I do not...

My temps 78 - 82. No exhaust fan. Realize that it would be a waste otherwise. I thought I read that high co2 enrinched air will allow for growth at much higher temps. Is that not true?

Tony, Fuckin nice to say the least. How many watts is that HPS? I see you have a grow hut, it looks like. What size is it? How many plants do you fit in there?

I'm using the same method but with a one gallon bottle, and I'm thinking maybe I need more. But what a pain in the ass to shake those things several times a day.

Dude, not true. You counted the two fans in your budget and those would not have come with any coolable reflector that you would have bought. So you came out way ahead. Where did you get those fans? cheap as hell. I need to get one. I was gonna suggest that you put mylar in the hood, in my...

FilthyFetch, you raise some good points but... First off, again, the drain analogy cannot be used in this scenario as I touched on in my last post. The force pushing the water down the drain is a function of the amount of water going down the drain. F=ma, m is mass, a is acceleration (better...

I have some plants in my flowering room that are about 24 inches tall and just over two weeks into flowering. My glass covered light is about 3 inches from the top of the tallest one. I added another younger plant, that was about 5.5 weeks old that is about 12 inches tall, to the flower room...

nice dude. How much were all the materials to make that?

Being my first grow I have no basis for comparison. It says that the HPS bulb puts out more lumens than your typical HPS light. I think it puts out 55,000 instead of the regular 50,000 lumens. Several people on here use the same bulb such as videoman and russ0r, who both have grow journals so...

exactly what videoman40 said - 2 days

pay $120 for the COMPLETE light system, ballast, reflector and bulb. High Tech Garden Supply you won't get it cheaper anywhere unless you buy used.

you know, the place that you bought your light from sells a cool tube for like $80. That might be easier and well worth the money.
