Looking good broski! Yeah it looks like the soil is bit hot. What kind of dirt you using? I used to run roots soil but after the last two runs with mad gnats I started to make my own mix with black gold soil, worm castings and some tree frog soil.

WE NEED AN UNLIKE BUTTON TOO...LOL i have had that happen before too.a couple years ago, maybe even less. wheni was running only my 1000 and the rail i had the light hanger break somehow thus letting the light fall on to half the room... then the rail dragged it back ad forth on top for a few hours before i got too it.... live and learn i guess just the other day i was re arranging plants and had one take a nosedive on to the floor shell be ok tho for sure. i have had some interesting experiences with that... lol
knock on wood for me to about hte tent poles, are yours plastic or metal?

the poles are metal but the three way elbow is plastic. like heavy duty plastic. lmao. wasnt expecting what i saw. dude the whole right side of the plant had the 1000 cooking it for a few minutes. pressed up against the glass. when i got everything clear i saw the damage. looked like i hadnt watered the side in months. opened my hood and all the condensation was puddled inside the glass. kinda trippy actually.

cops were at my house again lastnight tried to make me come outside i kindly refused and stayed inside. so then after i slammed the door in their face they were snooping around my car with flashlights and stuff so i stepped into the back yard adn asked what the fuck they were doing, it was around 4 am and less than 10 feet from my growroom there was a cop leaning on my garage door im sure waiting to tazer me as soon as i reacted to them... but im free and not in jail so fuck them in their neck....

Thanks for stopping by my thread and the advise, it looks like the light mover is working well for you, after seeing my setup do you think I could scrog in a 6x9 area and use the 1000 on a rail?
what rpm motor are you using?

yes as long as u have a decent rail and a fast enough motor to cover the amount of space in a decent time.

i think my motor is a 3.5 rpm motor... but not sure.. its a guala robotics lightrail intellidrive 3.5.. its been working since before this thread was started for a while and still never had a problem with it. i can keep it alot closer to my plants to the point i have a little light bleaching goin on right now.. ill snap a couple shots
definitely possible for the size room your taling about , just keep the canopy shallow, and use all that led that you have to suppliment man youll be rockin.. i just dont have alot of patience so scroggin might no be great for me, andi feel like i have a faster turnaround time just packin a bunch of plants in on a perpetual cycle... i cant budget the weed for 3 month while im waiting on the next crop to finish ya know??

I like scrog since I'm limited in the number of plants I can have. I'm medical and want to stay under my limit. After reading several journals it got me thinking that I could reduce my total watts used and with an upgrade to a 1000 watt I might be able to cover my entire flower room.
I think I will use a few LEDs as supplement in flower and will use some in veg. Probably sell my t5 bad boy and some of the left over LEDs. I've had good success with the LEDs, great quality, just not a lot of coverage and that leaves me using the same watts and a little less yeild.
So if I can scrog and use a rail with a single light (maybe some supplemental) I should be able to have a better yeild and use less power.
can you turn the hood sideways with the lightrail? Any suggestions on setting up the vent with the hood moving?
thanks for the help!

the ducting will automatically shrink if u have a strong enough fan for the exhaust. i use an 8 inch 735 cfm fan with a six inch hood for the extra suction. lol. shrinks like a slinky and expands as the rail moves outward. just make sure u have some sort of resistance on the other end like a filter or something. also look into a higher rpm motor and rail. the intelidrive is nice. i use the adjustable one from 6-10 rpm with a couple 3 ft rails hooked together. its nice and moves from side to side in my 8 foot tent fast enough that i dont need supplemental lighting for veg. havent flowered with it yet. every chance i get goes horribly wrong becuz of my tent dying. :/
