    Lighting upgrade worth it in flower?

    I havent done the research on the bulbs but im positive digilux puts out more lumens. I have digilux hps and halide on the 400w 600w and 1000k levels and am satisfied with them. The question you need to ask yourself is, if your apollo bulb is satifying your needs on yeild then would it be smart...

    Additional light - T5's or 250 watt HID?

    Not to double post but i still think running t5s would be a good idea and if heat is an issue just remove them, its not so much the bulbs, its the ballasts that throw the majority of the heat. I think next round im just going to do it with remote balllasts and just run the wires up and out the...

    Warning---mobydick--ghsc

    In all seriousness, that is why options exist. Try a more mellow strain. Same reason you have liquor with different alcohol content in it. You would be more of a beer drinker rather than a bacardi 151 or everclear guy. So far,no science behind the suggestion that thc content can be manipulated...

    Additional light - T5's or 250 watt HID?

    The t5 fixtures will throw off more heat than you think, nothing compared to hids but i had temps in the low 90s with just my ballast turned down to 600w, a 4 bulb 4ft t5 fixture and 4 23 watt cfls. I removed the bulbs and the fixture and my temps have not reached over 79 with a 1000w hps in the...

I was veggung her under 600w digilux halide 24/0 the past 4 weeks and she packed on the foliage, She...

    Grow Tent Holes Too Small For Large Ducting

    You can always buy 10" flanges and creat a 10" hole to accomodate for the air passage imo. You will not need to run at full speed.... I do not know the specs on your tent but im sure running a 10" fan on full blast will more than likely create enough negative pressure to collapse the 4x4 if it...

    Can there be TOO MUCH negative pressure? Carbon Filtering

    Im in a 5x5 gorilla grow tent (sturdier than jardins) and I run a 6inHO fan and carbon filter and i dont have problems. The sides concave but thats about all. Im using it at anywhere between 75-66% consistently but i have ran it at 100% for 2 weeks straight with no issues, i mainly turn it down...

    Moved into a new house w/ tons of Room. Need help with setup

    Yes, you will want a seperate breaker for the the lights. But if that was my room and I knew I was hand watering, I would do the 4k to give myself room to be mobile. This is all up to you though of course but from your first post I see you do have another bedroom also so this should not be a...

    600w HPS in 1000w Ballast.....

    Yes, but if what the guys says is true he is only measuring 600 odd watts from the setup. Sort of the idea behind power usage in your home, it will only pull what it needs.

    Moved into a new house w/ tons of Room. Need help with setup

    For the light intensity hes saying ( it will be bright!) Hand watering will be ok as long as you do not overfill the room, you will have to leave pathways to walk and space to water so Im thinking you might downgrade to 4 1000s so you will have managable space to move around freely in the room...

    Moved into a new house w/ tons of Room. Need help with setup

    Rachet ropes from eyelets screwed into the ceiling allowing you the option of adjusting the height of your lights to the canopy of the grow. Chain link is just as good. Have you thought about canopy management? If you plan on this the get your self so e trellus netting if you would be using...

    Moved into a new house w/ tons of Room. Need help with setup

    Lol, you are correct. You would need a seperate a/c unit to control heat. It would be hard to please your grow room and the people living in your house with the same cooling heating devices.

    600w HPS in 1000w Ballast.....

    I guess if the guy has been saying he has been running 400w bulbs in a 1000w ballast, that information is truely irrelevant to the question the OP asked KITE HIGH? The only way you will get an answer is doing it yourself soup. Report results and enjoy the rep that follows. I can guarantee...

    Moved into a new house w/ tons of Room. Need help with setup

    If you plan to use all of 12x12 you will need a lot more light. Your 8x4 would have been nominal for 2 1000w lights. As for the closets, clone/seedling rooms/resevoirs/ nutrients and supplies.....possibilities are endless. If co2 is injected, you would save yourself money on it by not letting...

    Vermiculite Vs. Perlite

    If it makes you feel beeter, i bought 3 bags of perlite that was not my usual brand (i usually get shultz) which was miracle gro perlite. Thinking to myself perlite is perlite, I didnt know that miracle gro put nutes in the perlite....I was just about to rip the bag open and mix it it with 50L...
