To be exact... the white should be the positive, the black the negative or neutral. The little prong on the plug/ outlet is the positive (charged) one, and the big prong is the neutral, so you can line it up like that.

    Plants are looking great!
    Thank you so much Jig! I had tried to look it up but hadn't found a simple response, so thank you tons! Have read some of those grow books where it talks about people getting busted because they set their houses on fire with crazy light systems... so I am paranoid about overloading my circuits, or wiring something wrong. I'm sure you have to be pulling a lot of watts/amps/juice/gigawatts to pose that danger, but better safe then sorry!

    Thanks again man, and thanks for saying my plants are looking good. Last night was the first time I have seen some actual crystal development and I had kinda been like: what are you guys DOING in there?! So I'm encouraged!

    Quick victory shot of the stuff I grew from bagseed. Put this little lady in my buddys room when i went away for x-mas and never got her back, until now! Vegged her in my little stealth cab under a lot of CFLs and then flowered her in my buddys room... 16 grams! Will keep me in smoke for a while, and its proof that I can actually grow something! Woot!!! In a couple months I hope to have lots of jars like these....

    Silver: checking them today, I'm amazed at the growth in 24 hours. Yesterday, one baby bud had crystals. Today, all of them do! I'm so proud, my little plants are growing up so fast!

    Some pics of the new H P S !








    Some bud shots.. amazed at the growth in 3 days...








    Tried to get a shot of the crystals on the leaves... There are lots already!



    Upskirt!




    New thermometer.. gonna see how hot it is up there in a bit. Had to reroute the intake so that we could turn the light perpendicular to the tent, and raise it about 4" Plant canopy is still too hot... Put a 6" fan in there in addition to the Vornado to hopefully help... Have the intake fan pulling in cold winter air in at full blast so we'll see the temp in a bit! One of the poor little buds had allready got scorched from the heat of the HPS... I didn't put a pic up here of that tho because I want you guys to think I'm perfect Far from it... but I want to learn and get more efficient every day! Gonna see if I can put the ufo in there tomorrow, and hopefully get a filter hooked up.

    Peace out hope y'all're (thats right, double apostraphe!) having a great night!

    Also... what is the desired humidity level? Mine is very low and I think I need to bump it up. Is the only way to do that with a humidifier? Thanks!!

    Nice double apostrophe. And I'm the same way with pics, I only take pictures of the good stuff, lol. Why immortalize a mistake right? Things are looking great in there.

    EDIT: Here's a pic to answer the humidity level question. You want to be in the green. However, I am always around 10-20% during lights on, and around 35% with lights off and I still get alright results.

    So hot in the tent... i don't know what to do. My thermometer in there said 109 earlier... I don't think it can be right. The plants aren't showing any signs of heat stress except one bud that was close to the light the first day it was in there and it got a little scorched.

    Kinda thinkin about going back to the LED...
