Default 400 MH/HPS Veggie Grow
Hey all,


I've had my whole setup for growing just sitting in a storage unit, because as of my current living situation I am unable to grow.

I got bored and decided to set it up here, but for a vegetable garden.

As of right now I've just got various lettuce growing in it, but will soon be adding some hot peppers and tomatoes.

I am currently using a 400 HPS ballast with a vented reflector hood and a Sunmaster 400W MH conversion bulb.

I have a bunch of seedlings in small cups of dirt, but some will eventually be moved to my aeroponic tub.

Soil is Fox Farm Ocean Forrest, no nutes yet, and im using distilled water.

The temperature usually stays in the mid-upper 70's and low 30% humidity.














What do you guys think? Is my temp/humidity gonna be a problem?

Im using these to test out various growing techniques and hone them in so when I can finally grow pot again I can know what works best for me.

Some will be transplanted into larger pots with soil, and some will probably end up in the aero.

I agree & think hydro is great for starting the plants and getting them strong. I started out with a very simple ebb&flow system for organic basil & beefsteak tomatoes and now they're both at least 9 inches & very strong. Along with some big max pumpkin seeds whose roots are amazingly thick after only 2 days.. they're all going outside to a small garden.

Cheers & REP.
