Hi all, sorry about this again, but I im still trying to work out what is best for my light. Will this item run my HPS ok? http://www.hydroponics.co.uk/Lighting-Systems/Timer---Lighting-Accessories/Ecotechnics-Powerstar-1-Way. Im going to be using a 600 watt dual spectrum HPS, then upgrading...

Thanks for all the input Guys. Im in the UK, so dont have the selection you do, check this page and pick one for me please, if you could. http://www.hydroponics.co.uk/Lighting-Systems/Timer---Lighting-Accessories . Thank you...... P.S, I will be running a single 600 HPS, then upgrading to a...

Thanks all for the science, +1 to all!! Truu, I just keep on reading that a normal household timer will need something to take the load of the huge current otherwise the timer will burn out. Thank you.

Thanks for the reply Truu, So I am at present building my 600 watt MH/HPS grow room, but im going to upgrade to a 1000 watts when flowering, what would I need, a contactor or a relay or both? Thanks again mate.

Hi all, Just a quick question in my arduous build, Whats the difference between a contactor and a relay? Thanks much very............:weed:

PC case? Like a computer case?

Ok, I have a new 600watt ballast ( maxibrite) which I bought a couple of weeks ago. Now I learn, (being a noob) that they are not the best. I only want the best. Whilst I buy another new ballast, should I upgrade to a new wattage? I've just bought a secret jardin tent DR150II 150x150x200. I...

Thanks everybody, At the moment this is all I'm thinking about, so all your reply's are are very much appreciated and certainly food for thought. Thanks again.

They sound great Bostoner, but I cant seem to find them in the UK.........

They sound great Bostoner, but im in the UK and a quick google search didn't reveal anything......

Genius!! Just keep one small lady then clone from her when is closer to the time. I didn't think off that! What type of lights should I was? One of those 4 tube T5's wont fit. How about a double 250 watt CFL reflector? Do they let of much heat? Cheers.

Thanks for the reply dadio, After 2 months in my wardrobe wont the ladies be too big? And are T-5's strong enough? Cheers.

maybe 6 Northern lights or purple haze in one grow.

I've been really excited lately about building my first grow room (H:9 feet, W:5 feet and L:3 feet). I've taken delivery of a 600 watt digital ballast and a Magnum XXXL reflector. Next purchases include MH/HPS, fans, ORCA, AIRPOTS and loads of the best general equipment I can get. This morning...

Ok cool thanks. Anything to add on the dual spectrum bulbs mate? Im still torn on whether to go MH/HPS or Dual, have you ever done any tests? Cheers.

The cooltubes/coolshades, come with dual spectrum bulbs BTW.

Ok cool, thanks J, Im looking for high yield as well as potency, but if I had to choose though, yield is more important. What about 2 x 250 watt cooltubes either side of the XXXL? Just to get light into the sides and corners? Or do you think the 600 watt HID is enough? Cheers mate.

Thanks for the reply jondamon, much appreciated. Yeah I see what your saying, I think I'm just seduced by the fact that I can place the CFL's anywhere, on the sides or lower so they can get to the middle or bottom leaves without the heat issue. And my grow-room is very small, so 2x 600 watt HID...

Right, Im ordering things for my grow-room now, so far I have bought a 600 watt ballast and a Magnum XXXL reflector. My grow-room size has changed since my last post, now it is H:9 feet, W:5 feet and L:3 feet. Im going to use MH for veg and HPS for blooming, I decided to leave the dual spectrum...

Double FIND IT!!! I Need this!! :)
