Thanks for checking out my thread, Kaleo. I've heard the HPS makes a huge difference for the flowering stage, so I think the 250 Watt hps will be worth the $$. Yea, I figure go big or go home lol, even if it is my first grow. I planted the seeds earlier today, and I read conflicting reports on whether or not the grow tip is supposed to be planted up or down. I guessed it was the root, so I planted it facing downwards. Any idea if that was the right move? Have you ever had any experience or know of anyone whos smoked/grown any supergirl? Once again, thanks for checking out my journal. Peace dude
