Thanks for the link that looks perfect but I can't quite afford it atm. I'd be alright if a hot start ruined my bulb but cant have any fires starting. U get along alright without a delay timer? I don't know what kind of reaction a hot start can give off but im thinking a cooltube could hold...

I'm new to the game and didn't know about hot starts. A digital 1000w hps works the same way? You have to let it cool down for a period of time before starting back up? Like another poster said that makes me pretty concerned about power outages.. If the power goes out and comes right back on...

thx for answers

Say I found an immature white seed in a bag of dank. If I was able to germinate it, would it produce a higher quality plant then a dark mature seed out of a bag of regular mids? I know immature seeds have less chance of germinating, but will it being immature effect the actual plant if it...

Yea lol that smoke detector could be a double edged sword when it comes to stealth. Good thinkin bout the timers as well. I think a ballast should be safe on top of something non flammable in crawl space. Can't see anything igniting around it if something should go wrong. What I'm getting at is...

Where to fires normally originate? At the ballast? At the light socket? If so I think storing a ballast inside a fireproof grow room is the safest bet, forget the extra heat gain. Assuming a dedicated circuit is being used with no amp overloads.

Thanks, I'm seriously considering any other options available to me now. A pot bunker sounded so cool tho lol. I might go for it- all I would be out of is some sheet rock/ wood/ hard digging labor if it didn't work. I guess insulation would help too. Already have a 10awg wire ran for a soon to...

That was my main question. I think I can keep the floor dry and divert flood waters with sump pump, but even with the ambient humidity down there I'm not sure a drywall/frame structure will repel it. Even with indoor air circulated in the area.

I'm dedicated as I have already ran power to the crawlspace. If all goes to plan there shouldn't ever be a puddle of water in the grow space. I have to see exactly how the water is running for my sump pump positioning so I'm waiting for a hard rain. Hopefully I can stop it before it reaches the...

Thanks for the reply. FYI yes it's a 450cfm fan hooked to a filter. I know I've seen people exhaust hot lights through filters so it should be fine. I read somewhere heat effected carbon filters like humidity and it freaked me out but they must be full of it. Sry no digi camera but if the sump...

I'm helping a friend build a grow room in his crawl space. Water fills the lowest part of his crawl space when it rains hard, however this is the best room location for height issues. My solution is to install a sump pump and divert the water before it reaches the grow room. I recently...

Is it normal for the filament in a 1000 watt eye hortilux bulb to be slanting? Or is this a manufacture defect?

EVERYONE I've already tried sperm on plants. Check out this thread to see how it turned out. https://www.rollitup.org/general-marijuana-growing/47548-emergency-help-plz.html

yea i pretty much agree with everything said here thx

I know everyone says as a rule of thumb, two 1000 watt lights won't raise an eyebrow with electric usage. My question is what if a house uses mostly gas, so the electric bill normally runs very low (about 3 or 400kw a month.) The KW usage is almost always consistent with last years usage at...

My buddy just gave me a call, and we have a lot of trimmings to make hash. I'm about to leave for his place right now, and I'd like to get high right now as well. Does anyone think panty hose would be the right consistency for making hash using the silk screen method? There aren't any art...

yo im trying to decide between a 400 watt and 600 watt hps there really should be a 600 watt club bump

so 1k from one source is better than multiple 400s with more spread

Could two 400 watt hps pull off a bigger yeild than one 1000 watter since you can more evenly distribute the light? Ok ok the 1k light has a 200 watt advantage, how about five 400 watters V.S. two 1000 watters?

i found a good post for your situation https://www.rollitup.org/newbie-central/236512-i-need-help-settin-up.html
