    Side Lighting Help

    I have twelve 100w equivalent 2700K cfl's. I have 12 ceramic light fixtures and the all wire needed. I am thinking of securing 6 of them to a 2x4 or 2x6 and then putting them (somehow) just below the canopy. Not quite sure yet how i could make this adjustable yet though. How do you supply...

    Just can't fix this ( Pics)

    If it was me I would try just using the nutes for a week or two without any of the extras. You could also try backing down your ppm's a little. Ive encountered something very similar to your issue in the past, usually with new clones that were over fertilized. Hope this helps you.

    Help? which light for my tent?

    Ive used a 400 with a vented hood for years to veg. The heat is really not that bad. I use a $25 home depot duct booster fan and its plenty to keep the heat off the lights. I can put the lights 6 inches from the tops of the plants without burning. If you are growing in extreme heat such as...

    Help? which light for my tent?

    If you use a 400W make sure you can vent the heat off the lights (vented hood or cool tube) and get the ballast out of the tent. If you do, you will be okay and the results will be better with the 400. In AZ heat you should most definately have A/C. Lived in Yuma for 3 years!!!

    Petition To Legalize Marijuana In Michigan

    I sure hope we could get this done. We need much better turnouts at all elections. Why did we let Schutte in the door? Everyone knew about his personal vendetta against cannabis. What happened to the recall campaign? I am sure that cannabis users are the majority in the state but we let...

    Anyone want to read some good news?

    I think this is good news. I also think it would have been completely unnecessary had we elected the correct AG. What a fucking Douche. Happy holidays! :peace:

    Rootball gradually taking up space in the bucket. I can see how that could be a problem. I wouldnt have had the foresight to see that had you not mentioned it. Thank you.

    Can anyone help with ebb and flow controller?

    Thanks Stinky. Im am taking all this info in and will continue to research before making a decision. Man if I put as much time into work as I do growing weed my boss would love me. Wish you were closer, Id buy that system of yours. Maybe I could get Detroit to sell me his, hes much closer.

    Can anyone help with ebb and flow controller?

    You set your computer on a schedule? Wouldnt that kinda be like setting a timer on a schedule? Or do you have your computer set up to read a controller like Hammers? Im just a bit confused I guess.

    Can anyone help with ebb and flow controller?

    Your controller looks great! Im quite serious when it comes to growing and I hear the warning in your tone. Common sense tells me that a float switch is the safest way to go. I am here on RIU just trying to get some kind of concensus among growers who have used this system. If I am wrong...

    Can anyone help with ebb and flow controller?

    Thanks for the input. I believe we are now tied. Two people say level controllers are a must and two say not necessary. Have you had experience running this system?

    Can anyone help with ebb and flow controller?

    Thanks alot man. Sounds like you've learned from experience. Now, you still use the controller bucket as a place to put your drain pump right? If so how many lines would i need to run out of the controller bucket for a 24 bucket system? Just a sidenote but do you have any idea what the...
