I'm thinking of getting a NextGen 1000 watt Digital Ballast from CAP Controllers. Anyone using one of these? I have several of the Hydrofarm Powerhouse Sodium / Halide convertable ballasts but this one boosts 30% more light.
Just trying to find out if it's worth it.
TIA

Ya, I know this is pretty lame but it might help someone out there. I'm trying to germinate some seeds and I had quite a few that wouldn't crack so I found on the net where it helps sometimes to "scuff" the seed on the seam of the seed.
I've got big hands and it was almost impossible for me...
I'm still running a test on my system using FloraNova. If you have never used this stuff it is very thick, brown and gritty... or at least the stuff I have is.
Anyway my res has a lot of gunk after about a week. I shake the bottle before adding and when I first add it to the res it seems...
Since seed cost so much I'm teaching my self with pepper plants just to get an idea of what is what. I'm using Flora Nova Grow right now in a 5 gallon resivoir and the peppers are in rockwool.
1) What is or is there an average PPM for distilled or tap water. I tested my city water and it was...
As I am still working on my grow room I want to get some mothers going so I'll be ready when I'm finished and I would like to use my basement space for that.
I've looked at the Homebox and the Dark Room DR-xxx models. I believe the Dark Rooms are actual Secret Jardin Secret Jardin.
A google...
I just made my last order for sometime and I went with Attitude. The order was just over $1000. Like always I paid with my credit card, had it sent to my house and the funny thing about it was the postman read the label wrong and thought a signature was required but it wasn't. I still signed for...
I'm constructing my grow room in my garage and because of the garage door tracks I can really get it higher than 7' 4" and I'm pretty tall my self so with a Co2 Generator and Can 66 Filter I'm thinking they will be in the way or at some time cause a good head banging!
Since I do have a few...
I have been trying to contact DAN at their email address ([email protected]) but they keep coming back undeliverable. I have some questions about their nutrients and shipping so does anyone have a good email address for them.

I'm building my room but was wondering about flooring. I'm covering the walls with Mylar and I've read where people paint the floor a flat white.
Would it be just as good to use a white linoleum on the floor. I would think it would reflect the little bit of light that gets that low and it...
I am just about to order my lights for my grow room and I started to do the calculations. Originally I planned on one 1000watt HPS for a 9l x 8w x 7h room. That is 72 square feet and in order to get 50 watts per square foot I would need 3600 watts!!! With one light I'm at about 13 watts per...
As I slowly put my grow room together I was wondering about a light mover. Are they worth the money? Do they live up to their claims (produce a much larger yield)? If you have one are they problematic?
Room is 9w x 8l x 7h.

I have two pending orders that I have not received yet. One is the other half of an order I got from the Doc and the 2nd half was shipped on the 13. The first part made it in about 10 days. My second order is from Attitude with tracking and right now it's in NY. I have ordered from Nirvana, Doc...
When I setup my intake I was going to pull in from the outside of the grow room and vent it outside. I was wondering if taking fresh air from outside the house would be better. We have all 4 seasons and in the winter time it can be pretty darn cold so I would assume pulling in that cold air...
I'm still in the planning stage of my grow room but just gathering ideas on how to do certain things.
I will vent outside and my grow room will be in my basement. I was going to vent it outside low about the same place as the dryer duct is at but then I thought it might be to low and the smell...
I'm getting ready to build my grow room and of course this site has been a great help but like all noobs I have questions.
My room will be about 8 x 6 x 7. I'm thinking of using an Elipse 6" 630 CFM inline fan for exhaust and passive intake unless I'm told otherwise. Now the questions...
Ordered my seeds from Nirvana on the 27 July, they were shipped on 28 July and I received them on 7 August. Not bad at all if I say so myself and this was my first buy.
Packaged well and I thought the package was pretty stealthy to the point when I opened it I first thought "They didn't send...
