Recently got a new light it is a 600 watt Hps/Mh When i put in my MH bulb i start to get a burning smell coming from the bulb after i turned off the light i took out the bulb and noticed some black spots on the tip of the bulb that is plugged into the fixture. I then tried to my old HPS bulb and...

I already read the LED forum posts thats why i was asking about the low wattage lights since they are being marketed as grow lights... I'm returning the item it hasn't even been shipped yet, and i think i might just do 400 watt hps....I'm so sick of the heat my first 2 grows were completely...

Thanks for the info guys I think i'm going to return them

OR just enough light for 4 plants, i'm thinking you would need at least 300-400 watts? which might not even be possible in the grow space, so if these won't work, what could these lights work with maybe a single plant in a compact grow space?

I just bought some LED lights after noticing how cheap they were. They are low wattage LED lights so i'm aware that they probably won't be enough. I just read some guides about growing with LED but my questions is how many of these LED lights will be enough They are Pro 900 Led Four 14 watt...

I need to know what i need to do to maximize the bud grow in these plants... is there still hope for them? they have little to no smell and I have been stressing over it for weeks. the sativa plant is over 12 weeks old the Indica is 10 weeks old. like i said before they were pushed back 4 weeks...

I have some pictures to upload of the plants. The Indica plant has brown/orange streak in a few leaves i think its some sort of cal or mag deficiency im treating with cal-mag. The Sativa plant that had a month of spidermite damage is the one im worred about the most. It has lost over 100 leaves...

Thanks for the information it makes perfect sense. my Indica plant has small buds but nice buds on it with good looking hairs. while my staiva has small white hairs and barely any buds to speak of. I think there has to be some sort of light leak. I did my first grow in the same tent (virtual sun...

No superthrive at all this grow. I am going to do longer dark hours. The plants look the exact same for an entire month now. I have been using Big Bloom, Tiger Bloom, Grow big as directed from the Foxfarm schedule. I can try taking really bad pictures from my ipod i hope it helps....I'll post...

My buds are not growing and i am not getting any hairs.... I veged for 4 weeks, then i flowered for 4 weeks (no air conditioner, spider mite infestation, not enough dark) so i have flowered for another 4 weeks (this time without a light leak), and now i have an air conditioner and i'm flowering...

My tent just got to 91 degrees it was hot in the room today, so i'm kinda pissed off i was hoping i finally solved this problem, i'm going to take the ducting off the exhaust fan and see what temps that get to....

I just got my controller set up, and I don't like my set up, i don't think i want to ditch the glass even but I think it'd be best if i take the ducting off the exhaust fan so it can pull air from the whole tent and just the light. anyone else think that's a good idea?

I had never thought of that, with the resources i have atm i'm not sure if i could pull that off right now the exhaust fan is hooked up to the light and i keep the top of my tent open for extra air to get out. I will try that out in the future but right now the only place i can put the exhaust...

Heat problem solved. Installing the intake fan on the bottom right side of the tent provides it with cool air keeping the tent from getting hot. Now I also have 400 cfm exhaust fan but, atm it's too loud so im getting a controller to lower the speed to keep it from being so noisy. I no longer...

Thanks for the info guys! Here is an update! I bought a vortex 400 cfm exhaust fan i just installed today! Temps still running pretty high mainly because the exhaust fan is hooked up to the light and not taking air from the tent. I installed an intake fan to blow cool air in the tent. My...
