Hey, here's an update to my journal
https://www.rollitup.org/blogs/blog17063-update-week-4.html Ceramic metal halide is
http://tiny.cc/r2ijd and the light that I am using is something like this...
http://tiny.cc/olf5o I picked it up off a guy on kijiji it was a great deal for the socket, ballast & light i paid 80$.. I am thinking about getting this bulb for my next grow.
http://tiny.cc/ior6j it has a greater cri% and a 5000k light temp.
ps. as you see.. i have 2x light reflectors, 1 i got from home depot, the other from a pet store, i would check out the pet store, if money isn't an issue they usually have quality reflectors between 29.99$-59.99$ depending on size and Watt capability.. I also have a clamp work light from dads shed
which i attached a dual socket to that i picked up from canadian tire. All of my lights are attached to a power cord which is attached to the timer, except the 400W that is connected directly to the timer seeing as it is a double socketed timer.
my temps fluctuate around 72-83. depending on time of day, but it is getting colder out so it is likely temps will drop a bit between now and harvest no big deal.
pps. I hope you like the pics
I updated my grow journal because of you.
