    T5 + HPS + LED +New Grower

    I have been moving the ladies from the 500 watt LED to the 400 watt HPS every two days. It looks like they are all doing very well. Deep green color and plenty of growth. More picts to come soon.

    T5 + HPS + LED +New Grower

    Thanks everyone! I appreciate you all stopping in to check things out. I went 400 in place of 1,000 because I want to use HID to supplement the LED - not LED to supplement the HID. Once I see how things go I may consider picking up a 600 or 1,000 watt HID to add to the room?? I've started...

    T5 + HPS + LED +New Grower

    I've made the switch with half the group to 12/12 today. I am running a 400 watt HPS and a 500 watt LED. I have them side-by-side but do not plan on running a competition, this is after all my first grow and whatever comes out from this won't be due to my mad skills. I do plan on rotating the...

    T5 + HPS + LED +New Grower

    Here are a few picture updates of my girls. Today my Blue Berry is looking a little saggy - she due to get some water but I'm not sure it that's the issue. I was also trying to LST her a bit to make more room and snapped a branch. It didnt snap off so I tied it up in hopes that it would heal -...

    Anyone using ozone generator's???

    Do you have it set up in the grow room or outside of it. I have one along with a carbon filter and would like to know how/where to use it for best results. I have the larger unit, not the JR.

    T5 + HPS + LED +New Grower

    Here are the updated pics. Since my first run I have put up some reflective insulation around my walls in my flower room, made some rolling trays for my plants in the veg room, put up some shelves (and have clones in the turbo klone) and have moved some lights around. I will be making a light...

    T5 + HPS + LED +New Grower

    I've been neglecting my thread here. Been really busy finishing up the rooms and trying to stop the light leak through the doors. Just picked up some panda film and will drape it over the doors to stop the last bit of light from creeping in. I have also cut my first clones and put them in my...

    T5 + HPS + LED +New Grower

    Things seem to be going well so far. I plan on trimming some of the lower stems today and start LSTing some of the younger clones. I have a bit more work to do in the rooms but think they should be done this weekend. I'm sure I will keep making small changes as I go along but at least the big...

    T5 + HPS + LED +New Grower

    I'll try to answer the questions here: Why did I go with the 400 watt?? From what I have read you get better quality with LED lights but lose out on quantity, you want HID for yield. So I thought I could get higher quality using LED as my main source of lighting and supplement with a smaller...

    New Led Or Not ?

    When you say cover 9 square feet "aprox" do you mean you can flower a 9 sq ft area or veg? This all sounds great! I'm looking forward to hearing more info as it comes along. I will hold off on my next round of purchases till you get back to us
