    School me on your lighting experience

    Fellow growers. What's happening! As energy costs continue to rise, I am finally starting to think about a lighting change. I've always run hortilux mh and hps. Typically one 600 watt and one 1000 watt in a 4x8 tent using magnum XXL low pro hoods. I love the setup... I usually pull down roughly...

    Pro mix hp and 315 watt CMH?

    Hey, i am still having a problem getting my plants to grow quick and was wondering. I have a 4x4 tent. 6 ft high and CMH light hanging at the top. When you are growing from seed in pro mix under CMH should you make sure the surface doesn’t get bone dry? It seems like people tell you to let it...

    Auto Closet Grow with 315 watt CMH

    Hi there. I just walled off a section of this weird short tube-like closet in my house. The finished grow space is 30x40 inches, with a height of 63 inches. The fixture is the absolute cheapest cmh fixture I could find - a $150 all in one kit from Vivosun. It has the 3100k bulb. The closet is...

    CO2 Enrichment Requirement Concerns

    Hey! I’m reading that you should have at least 7500 lumens per sq ft to really take advantage of CO2 enrichment. In a 4x4 area, a 1000w HPS has sufficient lumens (9375 lumens per sq ft) but not a 630w CMH which has less than half as many lumens (4125 lumens per sq ft) even though both lights are...

    I use to LED, but now I CMH. for one main reason.

    besides the basics like PH, PPM, and min wattage/lumen per plant. all my years of growing have come to this conclusion. UV and sulphur uptake are most important for THC production, especially when you are trying to get above 23%. other than that, extremely good genetics are required as well...

    Hello, I've had a few DWC grows that went fine and I am now planning a much bigger one, but I have two issues I was hoping to get advice on. I want to switch from MH/HPS to CMH.
