    Interesting lighting question

    Hi all, I have a curious problem in my room with regards to my lighting. As of right now I have 3 600 watt hps over top of two 4 x 5 ebb and flow tables. So basically 4 x 10. Now the plan is to change from full room rotations to one table every 4.5 weeks but the problem is how to set up my...

    911!!!

    I have experience with hydro and would not mind calling you if you prefer that. But to answer your question you count how many gallons your reservoir has to add in the nutrients. It's probably 20- 30 ml per gallon

    Turbo Klone Water Temps

    I keep my cloner's temp in the low 70's clones do well in higher temps but so does bacteria. I prefer to straddle the two and go around 72 degrees. I put a frozen water bottle in for about 20 min

    Successful operations?

    I do sog 12 plants per 600w hydroponic ebb and flow. Very manageable electricity bill.... 2k a month is laughable as is 5 years per plant in jail time

    Cap makes a temperature kill switch for your lights that will shut off your lights due to high temperatures. They are like 70 bucks and will save your crop for you.

    85F to much ?

    85 is high but tolerable. Any higher and you have a problem. If you are thinking about supplementing co2, then 85 is perfect

    It will go back. The sooner you transplant the less stress there will be revegging

    Neighbor said she can smell my grow.

    We all grow because we disagree with the laws concerning cannabis. Nobody here wants to keep weed illegal, and breaking the law or not, the op is just doing his part to keep the plant alive. Next time you feel superior because you arbitrarily happen to live in an area where it's tolerated...

    400 watt mh light height

    Why would you say a metal halide is worthless? Not only are they the preferred veg light, but studies show uv radiation found in halides, but not hps, aid in trichome production. Your post is seriously misinformed. As for the op, keep them at least 24 inches away until after the transplant...

    Adding Co2 - Please Help !

    Hey dillest, I have some answers for you. You may or may not like them depending on your situation. In terms of air conditioning for a sealed room, you have three main options. From best to worst, mini split, window unit ac, and dual hose portable ac. The mini split separates the condenser and...

    Back again lol 2400w white russian flood n drain

    Yes, I've used both. An ebb and flow is a table that pumps nutrient solution from a reservoir underneath it and drains back into it. Depending on your style of growing, I've seen people do 4 plants per square foot. Think about that, a 4 x 4 table with 64 plants in it. That's the ultimate sog...

    Back again lol 2400w white russian flood n drain

    I just wanna clarify, the bucket system is ebb and grow. Ebb and flow uses tables. And personally, I think ebb and flow outproduces ebb and grow in terms of square foot of garden space.

    2 weeks between waterings? Really????

    The benefits of using an intermediary pot like transplanting from party cup, to 1 gallon, to 3 gallon is the size of your root ball. Roots tend to grow outwards and slip through the space between the side of the pots and the soil. Proponents of multiple transplantings say a well developed root...

    Whats the Diff Between the HPS and the Metal Hallide Lighting Systems

    If you want a room grow, separate the room 2/3 to 1/3 flowering room and veg room. Make sure the door to the room opens into the VEG room or you will not be able to check the room after your 12/12 timers go off. Honestly, I suggest hydro for a room of this size unless it is easily accessible...

    Adding Co2 - Please Help !

    Boom, that guy just got bitch slapped with knowledge. Anyway, if you're using a tent in a space bedroom or something, seal the bedroom and pipe the co2 in there. Now you have an "open" grow tent within a sealed environment.

    Whats the Diff Between the HPS and the Metal Hallide Lighting Systems

    Ya, if you only have one light. Go with the conversion bulbs. Anyway, to the original question it's mostly about light spectrum. Metal halides are more blue which promotes the growth in stems and roots. Sativas almost NEED to veg under metal halides IMO or the stems can't support the weight of...
