Hi, Shnkrmn, hope your doing as well as your girls are!
Always a good thing when you have to string them up so they don't fall over. ;-)

Sorry I haven't been on today guys.
Was one of those days for me.
Thankfully I was able to fall asleep for a few hours through the worst of it.
But still feel like something a well fed dog leaves behind on the trail for you to get stuck to the bottom of your boots.

Hey, duchie, thanks for sharing the Drucksfarben video!
Very tight sound!
If you can cover all those bands, and come up with original songs, you must be doing a whole lot of stuff right. ;-)

When I get to feeling like I feel today, I need to stay the fuck off the interwebz.
Not here in the 600.
Just the rest of it.

I've always felt it was better for me to seclude myself.
Recluse myself.
Insulate.
Conserve.
Away from those who live to hurt others and to watch them fail so they can prop themselves up to feel more important.

Away from people, and off the streets.
Keep others safe my manias.
My insolence.
My angers and my fears.
My self-righteous sense of honor, as if I'm somehow better than those who piss me off.

Deeds, not words, was how I was raised.

But all I have left are my words.
And sometimes they just aren't enough.
Sometimes they fail me.

They're just words, right?

They have all the impact of a falling feather.
Carry the energy of a melting snowflake.
Last only as long as an echo across a moonlit pond when there is no one else to hear it.

And what do I have left after that?

Only the sad realization that I'm no better than they are.
That my opinions mean less than I think they do.
That the words fall on deaf ears and I no longer matter in the ways that are important.

That I'm beyond the ability to make a difference.
Is something that's difficult to deal with.

Just one of those days.
There will always be a new Tomorrow.
And who knows what it holds.

Buy the ticket, watch the show.
Make something of it.
Move on to the next sunrise.
Tomorrow waits for us all.

Not sure where that's coming from bro but if you're talking about yourself, then I think words do have more impact, energy and longevity than that Doobie. Especially well crafted words and you do that very well, almost all the time and I think a lot of people here hang on those words, of yours. I think you leave a lot more impression on people than you think. What you have to contribute is not without substance, and it's definitely not just jibberish. Unless you're purposely spewing jibberish, otherwise I think the people that matter, the ones who pay attention, will take what you have to say silently away with them and your not aware. The others who make themselves and their opinions known to you via the vomit that comes out of their mouths are rather hopeless anyway.

I was watching the DNC tonight and one of the speakers was quoting a past president, can't remember which, who spoke something about lighting candles as opposed to cursing the darkness. Well, some people can only curse the darkness but you're one who can light candles, in place you can't see. Just tellin ya how I see it.

Sorry you're having a crappy day man. :peace:

so i got to reading, which always leads to work or trouble, and decided to take the glass out of my 600 watt. my room is so full that i have to have the light up pretty high anyway so there's no heat concerns. and per an old ask ed article, i'm going to switch out my HPS with an MH for the last 10 days.

it's my 3rd go with the same genetics and i'm curious to see if i'll notice a difference. i doubt it as in my experience, minor tweaks rarely enhance the high or yeild enough to keep me doing it.

"...Metal halide lamps emit more UV-B light than high-pressure sodium (HPS) lamps, so for more potent buds it is a good idea to use MH lamps the last 10 days of flowering. Air-cooled light reflectors have glass covers that absorb UV-B light. If it is feasible, remove it, so the light can shine unobstructed on the plants."

im not sure about the last 10 days,but if you have that mh in the room the whole time,it def makes a diff...IMO.
maybe even two weeks,i see that help that trich count.

I'd like to get rid of my cool tube as well and go with a simple open reflector like my other tent. I have an 8" inline to handle them both, I just need to finish piping fresh air in and finish off the end of my exhaust line which will extract the air into another room of the house, which should take care of any heat issues. I also have a MH ballast and bulb but it still needs some wiring before I can use it so I'm pretty curious to hear how that works out for you especially considering to have a good baseline to gauge with.

i've got a light that takes either MH or HPS so i'll switch out my hortilux with the MH and see what's what. it's the best kind of experiment. i don't have to buy anything or put much effort into it. :)

when i first got serious about indoor, i bought a freaky 800 watter from sun system. it was a combo 400 watt MH, 400 watt HPS. then i got greedy and got a 1000 watt for flower and used the MH side of the 800 for veg.

i'll definately post my results. the thought that these lovely genetics could be even better makes me drool.

i had wings for a long time,befor i got these hoods,realy,its nothing like an open bulb.
but with the right hoods,the right fan,ect>>>>the loss of lumen/uv-b,is made up by distance from glass to plant.
but with that,comes loss of footprint,its all a toss up,i think.

damn!

that's a nice set up. i have a whole room i could use but i'd end up growing way too much for my needs.

it's stupid, but when i was using 1000 watt, i had close to 40 OZ. sitting around. i got paranoid about having so much and gave away a bunch of it. lol
