Hmm, wonder if I could fit 4 5gal buckets in there? I'll give him a call in the morning, hopefully all goes well and I will let you know what happens.

Yeah, I'm planning to call in the morning just didn't wanna leave him a message at this hour. Any idea if they'll be open tomorrow or Monday? Now that I'm getting regular hours again I just can't pass this deal up. Was thinking about getting a second 90w after this grow if it goes well, but this...

I actually have no idea what they're rated at. The unit draws 90w supposedly, which would mean they'd have to be closer to 10w in order to be run at 6w if I understand correctly. A friend is lending me a multimeter next week so I'm gonna check the power draw then. Haha my friends must think I'm...

Look into rubbermaid tub grows, I've seen a couple of pretty good ones and it'd still be pretty stealthy if you do it right. Or look into getting a small 3 drawer dresser for cheap on craigslist or something. There are a lot of possibilities, just gotta see what wouldn't be out-of-place in the...

Damn, I never would've thought of checking it against the perlite! Great idea man, +rep for sure!

How high would you recommend trying it at? Pics below show how it blends at its current height. My only concern with raising it is the lenses on this are 120 degree so penetration could be sacrificed. The light is pretty bright but for some reason the camera doesn't like it which is why first...

Right now I'd say about 4" from the closer ones and 6" from the furthest ones. They don't seem to want to grow much vertically though so might end up moving the light up a few inches to try and get a more even coverage and a bit more height on them.

It covers a pretty good sized area, probably around 28"x22" because of its shape. All 6 under the light are definitely getting sufficient coverage, but because of the location of the lights the ones on the sides get a lot more blue while the middle two get mostly red. The reason I'd expect a two...

I'd like to see you pull 4oz out of a space that's less than 2 square feet and only a foot tall. Even using t5's (3" of vertical space) and 4" tall pots he'd only have 5" on space for plant material. Sorry but it's not going to happen. Double the available headroom and maybe he could get a...

Don't worry man, I know I've got the final say on what happens to my girls. Was jw what everyone would be most interested in seeing is all. I think you're right though, I'll get the most info out of finding out how they grow under the light without any training. Next round I'll do a two plant...

So they're getting their first full 12 hrs dark tonight, and I'm thinking that maybe I should put in a scrog screen to try and increase yield. Originally I wanted to grow them "naturally" to see what I got but I'm second guessing myself. What would you guys like to see? The yield isn't an issue...

Not 1st haha LST, it's where you tie down branches so that the plant grows laterally instead of vertically.

That's still really small man, you might get a lil more out of that than a pc case but not by much.

If it seems a bit yellow then go ahead and give a light nute dose. Can't really tell if it's yellowed with the hps on but doesn't look unhealthy from what I can tell.

Thanks man, I'm hoping to get a multimeter at some point to see how much it actually draws at start up and after running for an hour. They respond to emails within about a week, generally not the next day or two like the other company I was considering though. They are helpful with some things...

Yeah, I checked when I first set it all up and couldn't find any. I think it may have developed from me messing around adding the setup on the other side then never checking it again.

It's 90w, mix of 6w red blue and white diodes, no fans. Those little bulbs at the shop probably aren't good for much other than spotlighting individual bud sites. Thanks man, this thing produced some really good veg results so far. I moved it down to 4" above the tops to begin flower. I...

I know this wasn't directed to me, but check out Grumpy Old Dreamer, he uses kessils as well and pulls over 1gpw doing a mini scrog for each plant.

Okay so a bit has happened since my last post. I discovered a light leak the other day on the flowering side which explains why she's being so slow to flower, along with the heat. Unfortunately because of the light leak I'm guessing I still have another 4+ weeks before she'll finish. Pics later...

You'll be fine with the hps, especially since they're autos. If you were setting up a separate veg area then used want mh for that.
