i bought two used lumatek ballast and they caused RF problems bringing the cable company to my home due to neighbor complaints, since i didn't have cable i unhooked all my loose wires and capped all the ends to everything in my house and voila my problem went away. since i didn't need those...

Joey green here back with more head scratching bullshit. so in previous posts i mentioned buying two used lumatek ballast and how they caused RF problems bringing the cable company to my home due to neighbor complaints, since i didn't have cable i unhooked all my loose wires and capped all the...

thanks for the vid, i think i now know what im doing different which also goes with what @AKGrowAreo said, i left 1 clone behind when i first took cutting because i thought i saw roots starting (i was mistaken) but anyway that plant has now popped roots a month later, i believe its due to the...

guess ill wait it out and see how long it takes then. hopefully soon! i got a perpetual cycle im trying to pull off here lol

got a new problem (im on a roll here!) i have never had an issue cloning, i changed all my veg units to coolers like stink and now im not getting any roots, first set of clones sat for over 2 weeks with nothing, so i did my research, learnt to cut by a node which seem to pop roots faster, cut...

so i guess i should check ppm and ph daily, keep track of it and try to figure out how much they eat. im pretty sure i need to stay under 1200ppm, i burnt them last round. thanks for the info!

ya i think the meter is faulty, it doesnt seem to hold the calibration long and the temp does not display, i let it sit in ph7 solution, heard it can recharge the node but i should prob jus return it since i cant check temps. i do have some light that gets to the water but i dont see any algae...

i just got a new tip for my ph meter and last night i whipped up a fresh nute soup, ended up adding too much ph down and dropped to 4.3, using tap water i got it back up to 5.3, then today i go to check the ph to see if it changed and its sitting at 7... wtf. is my meter not working right or...

ok well im not dead and my fan seems to run like usual, so i think all went well changing the breaker. gonna get a meter to test it before running anything heavy duty. Got pretty lucky to, had 2 extra 15amp 120's sitting on top of the box all covered in dust, prob the ones my electrician removed...

sure do! called a few electricians they all said the same thing, best not to play around with it, we can come out and have a quick look for you.... not gonna pay for something i could prob do myself and definitely not letting some stranger into my room. so just to be sure i follow, is my...

I got rid of the heater a long time ago but i still have others that are the same make and they say 240v. i checked the outlet and if i turn off any one of the two breakers the outlet gets no power. I took pics and went to home depot but the guy in the electrical section didn't know much, he...

i know enough about electrical to do a few things, i also know enough not to play around with it, but i didnt know the 2 breakers would add up to a 240v. ill look into how to reconfigure the breakers... my ballast are digital and can run at 240v so i guess i can get new cords if needed... i...

no not exactly sure how to use it, dont have one either. i cant just turn off one of the 15amp breakers and run the outlet on the other? my room is maxed so i need to use that circuit in a month, planned on plugging in 2 x 600watters.... good thing i checked with fans first!

@jblwired or anyone with electrical knowledge, i wired up a regular wall outlet to a line that use to be dedicated to an electric floor heater for my basement. at the breaker it's two 15amp switches, so 30amps going to that one socket. every time a plug a regular fan in to it, the fan starts...

hey guys i was just wondering, i feel like my weed has like "alot" of red hairs, is there anything during the grow that affects this or is it all genetics? i have 8ball kush..

so to update on the RF frequency issue, I tried the cheapest fix first and I believe it worked... I removed the splitter from my tv/modem cable and plugged the wire straight into my modem since I didn't need the tv connection, then added the splitter to the cable wire in my bedroom and capped...

cable box is in the backyard maybe 20' away, modem is upstairs and in the front of the house. no TV near the grow, i dont have cable but my internet goes thru my cable, i read that i need to cap all my unused cable cords, something about them amplifying the signal... chaz if your ballast...

its a Lumatek LK6120 600watt, i believe its a digital ballast. i had 2 x 600watt dimmable lumatek's running before with no issue, recently i bought 2 more Lumatek ballasts, they are used 600 watters and they are not dimmable but i picked them up for a good price. I switch out the ballasts i was...

has anyone here dealt with suppressing RF frequencies from their ballast? i had the cable company show up the other day, apparently i've been disrupting the neighborhood. found some adapters online just wondering if anyone else has experience with this.

anyone know if 2 of these lights over a 2'x2' space would work well for 2 cloner units? or for growing seeds/clones in general? http://www.lowes.com/ProductDisplay?partNumber=296891-75774-LBP50150T35K&langId=-1&storeId=10151&productId=50107574&catalogId=10051&cmRelshp=rel&rel=nofollow&cId=PDIO1...
