I am happy to say I have had a bug free winter , so far. besides a couple of harmless stinkbugs here and there. I probably just jinxed myself, oh shit. I think I got stinkfoot!

Hey amber, just thought id drop by see how things are going. Have you taken any more samples? I took a pretty large one last night and it really messed me up lol. After smoking probably 5% THC for the past few months, I was not prepared for what followed haha. She is a force to be reckoned with that's for sure!
 
Is the unit energy efficient? It seems to use t5 bulbs along with supplemental cfl's, so I'm guessing it's fairly cheap to run. Thanks for sharing!!!

Heeelllllooooo.. hahah.. thanks for stopping by.. Yes the unit is energy effecient. After growing more i think that the phototron would be best used for 2 things. One would be for one plant as a 12/12 grow .. and the strain should be a good 12/12 strain . By that i mean one that tends to grown short with one large cola. (BUBBLEBOMB) Most recently i have utilized the phototron for growning my seedling until they are ready to go into my tent. I was able to create 2 levels allowing me approx. 14 party cups of seedlings. It workied wonderfully. I will try to grab you a photo, easier yet. please go to my signature at the bottome of this post and it will take you to my last grow and the picture is in the first few pages.. ... it really does work well but there are many tricks that i learned along the way that should be applied to getting the most our of this unit.
best of luck. happy gardening! amber

New PHOTOTRON grow
to grow where no one has grown before.
:weed:
:peace:Hello fellow gardeners.:peace:
:peace:
Im going to see what i can do with the "tron" in a single plant grow once again.
:shock::joint::hump::joint::hump::shock:
Im boarding this rocket ship now Due to **SPACE** constraints where i presently live.
After over a year staring this journal (wow time
FLYS)and after gaining much gardening knowledge with my 2 DR120 Secret Jardin Tents under 600 watts... after having grown with soil, coco and hydro and many experiments with pots, nutrients, stress techniques and reinventing the tron this past year...im ready to take the tron back out for an out of this world space aged trip far beyond the reaches of this galaxy.:mrgreen:
:idea::joint::idea::joint::joint::hump::joint::joint::blsmoke::mrgreen:

Im germinating a Cherry cheese Livers bean. Hoping for a female . I love this strain . It tops my medicininal favorite strains as the best for menstrual cramps which can incapacitate me and leave me in supreme pain. I have just a bit left in my curing jar from growing her last summer so i need to replenish my supply.

I found an exclusive Canna Products Hydro store in my area so im very stoked on that.. I picked up a discount ripped bag of Cana Coco,lol, and a bag of Fox Farm potting soil.

I will start my baby in a party cup of Fox Farm and then transplant her to a one gallon Smart Pot with Coco for the duration of her life.
Present new goal include cloning her and getting her out for garndners, care providers and patients in my location.... and spreading this amazing strain across the Azone. I have never cloned before so Im pretty excited learning how to do it.


Have a really great weekend, happy medicating..
:hug:Peace

Hey Amber, I've always wanted to see a Phototron grow from start to finish!!! Sub'd up!! Also I'm finally trying to get everything ordered for my first grow and wanted to run this by you!!!

I've decided since it's my first grow and I'm learning the ropes just to get a 250w HPS. Since I'm on a budget, it was cheaper than a 400 or 600..plus the 250 shouldn't noticeably raise my "normal" monthly bill any higher, what you think?
Do you think the 250w HPS will be good for what I got planned.?. Which is 2-3 plants in 3gal pots 12-12 from seed? If I'm not doing 12-12fs, I would just try like 2-3 plants in 5gal buckets.
How do you think the 250w HPS would do with those two setups? Could it handle those number of plants, or could I use more or less? Going soil a few grows first, maybe coco in the future..

Im happy to beam u up onto the ship my friend.
Congrats on your new set up.It sounds fantastic.
You will see a difference in your bill using those 250 wattslights.Try it, you can always use those lights in the future. Now if you start adding all the helpful fans and other gear..your bill will increase. as you know keeping a 12/12 lighting regiem will be very benifical to keeping costs down.
I would not grow biggers than a one to 2 gallon pots.. with the right nutes and enviorment ave yield is 2 oz off one girl 12/12from seed in my one gallon pot, coco..
i got those amazing results though with a 6oo watt light. Should be really intersting for me to see how much i can yield in the tron.

Yeah, after seeing you, Mantiszn, and Del..I'M going Coco!!! I figured less plants fighting for light would help yield too. Mantiszn had 2 plants in coco under a 400w and got 5oz..EACH!!! Since I'm only getting a 250w, I was thinking one at a time in bigger containers=higher yields?
