Hey guys, I know there is some info on these here, but it is sparse. heres the deal, I scored one of these from a buddy who was "forced" to get rid of all of his stuff, (marital issues). anyways, i inherited this complete system, but i really dont need to run it, as i have my setup running, and...

Hey guys, I was at the local "thrift store" today, looking for 4" ducting, and whatever i could find for cheap, and look what i stumbled on! It has a minute timer, and 24hr timer in it, along with a 12v transformer, and a small rheostat as well, for i dunno what. I thought who the heck would...

Whats with all the talk on the forums about plants going hermaphrodite? I've grown for at least 15 years (I took a 7 yr break till now ;-)), and in all the years ive grown ive never had a plant go hermaphrodite on me. I read in one post, "dont plant so many plants per light, your chance of...

Hey guys! I needed a 4 light flip, and found plans on the net how to build them, after i found the relays, the rest of the stuff i had laying around minus the timer and box. the plugs come from a discarded uninterrupted power supply, I liked how they were all together, and the back of the plugs...

Hey guys, I posted this in another area, that i was gonna build them, that was before I seen the DIY section here! So I thought id post them in the proper area wit ha bit of a write up on how i did them. First off, i ordered the 24" x 24" Blue Star aluminum hoods, they were about 60.00 here. I...

Hi guys, I did a thread in growroom setup and design, documenting my first grow which was "supposedly" a white widow strain, its been harvested last weekend, and i just transplanted my new strain into the room(s). (Elephant). I'll be using this thread to document it from start to finish. I...

Hi guys. I have a grow of presumably "White Widow", as i was told it was. I was also told it would be an 8 week plant. They are at about 11+ weeks now, and absolutely HUGE. I pruned them at about 4 weeks, and they were about 22" tall, after 8 weeks they hit 50", and took along time to flower...

Hey guys, just wanna share something im building. I am running 3-1000w hps lamps in my main bloom room, and 2 more in my smaller bloom room. I set up in march, and seeing how it was winter here, heat was no issue, well with summer on its way, i decided to vent my lights. originally i wanted to...

Hi guys. Now i researched this, but havn't found a definitive answer. I acquired a 1000w MH ballast today, with a horizontal hood and bulb. I would like to convert the ballast to HPS, and know its possible, but i'm not exactly sure how to? Now please don't tell me to get a conversion bulb...

Hi guys. Ive looked around and can't dind anything on this. I would like to build a 4 ballast "Flip Box". I wanna run eight 1000w HPS lights off four ballasts, on a 12/12 shift. I understand I can build a flip box that can do this, using one timer, four ballasts and (eight ?) relays? Can...

Hey guys, I need some advice, and im asking for opinions here. I have a legal grow going right now, consisting of 74 plants of "white widow". From what i can see, they prolly won't be the best producer, for overall quantity. My set up consists of the "sea of green", and I'm looking for a strain...

hey guys, I thought i'd share some experiences me and a couple buddies have just gone through. We "aquired" some White Widow clones from a local grower, and it appears this guys runs a real dirty grow. All of his grow is infested with spider mites. Anyways, after all three of us found this out...

Hi guys..... I just got my license, its good for 74 plants. I started a thread in the newbie area a week or so ago, showing a buddy's setup, and stated i would show mine as I went along. Well, I finally got some pics today to start this thread off.... I will be growing in a room 17'x8', in a...

Hi guys. I thought i'd drop a quick hello here, as this is my first post. I just got approved for my legal license here in Canada, and am waiting for my Govt. papers, which should be here in 2 weeks. I am approved for 15 g. a Day, and approved to grow 75-80 plants (the exact # will be...
