    400watt hps bulb working in a 150 watt ballast

    Maybe its just new bulb vs old bulb. I wounder if the lumens are the same 150watts through a 400 bulb and 150 through a 150 bulb. Good to know though could save me some money down the road.

    400watt hps bulb working in a 150 watt ballast

    So i just realized i put the wrong bulb in one of my ballasts. It is a 400 watt hps bulb in a 150 watt ballast. It burns significantly brighter than a 150 watt bulb. Any reason this could be? Im no electrical engineer but this is strange to me. The ballast doesnt even have an ignitor. Just what...

    Can buds develop after being chopped?

    Ok guys i did abit more research and found this: Water moves up plants from roots to leaves in a variety of ways... To be honest, scientists are not sure on the exact method by which water moves up plants. There are three methods which are present, but each on their own is probably not strong...

    Can buds develop after being chopped?

    How do clones have energy to produce new roots if they are the chopped head? They must use water and nutrients in the plant material to survive until a new source becomes available right? I dunno i may be way off but it seems to me a plant can survive off of itself for a period before dying...

    Can buds develop after being chopped?

    Not so much grow but produce more cannibinoids. Excrete any more resin? Yes they have buds and they look pretty good, but here we have a couple weeks left until flowering is complete. I know its not going to be anything noticeable just thought since potency increases greatly in the last 2...

    Can buds develop after being chopped?

    If you cut off my head i would survive as long as i had oxygen in my blood coming to my brain. While that may not be long its a period of time. Now if you cut out my lungs it would be a bit longer because i have oxygenated blood in my veins that still hasnt reached my brain. I think its more...

    Can buds develop after being chopped?

    Ok so suppose i needed to harvest 4 outdoor plants a little early due to security issues. They are at ~7 weeks indica dominant about 4 ft tall and bushy. If i cut at the ground and hung whole for a week would the plant use its stored energy from leaves and stems to continue developing a bit? Or...

    Attic grow room advice

    From my research i found that a radiant barrier is more effective, especially in an attic grow, at keeping heat where it belongs whether in or out depending on the season. It may have just been an advertising tactic but something like 95% of heat is transfered radiantly rather than through...

    Thanks for all the replies guys. I decided to double the width of my room for more work space and ventilation. Im going to pull climate controlled air from the bathroom by using an exhaust fan with about twice the cfm i need in order to create a decent vacuum in the grow room vented directly...

    Attic grow room advice

    Ohh and the light will likely be at a height of 3 feet or so above the soil. Ill probably start flowering clones at around 6-8 inches and this strain usually doubles height during flowering to 12-16 inches leaving about 2 feet between tops of plants and the light. I read 3 ft is the penetration...
