    How big of a fan is need for 600w vert cool tube?

    I use a 190: filter->cool tube->fan->out. Works pretty well. No problem if the outside ambient temp stays in the middle 60s.

    Northern Lights Seeds

    Look at Peakseeds BC. I'm no expert, but I've had good success with his NL #5. One just finishing now (planted two, one was male). The breeder has a limited line. $40 or $30 for Canadians for ten regular seeds. I got mine a couple years back on a two for one deal. Have to send cash or...

    Nothing, but . . .

    I'm eyeing a little bud on my kind-of-screwed-up-just-beginning-7th-week Jock Horror whose trichomes are all cloudy. What the hell? They're my plants, and I ran out of the last of my hash a month and a half ago.

    Nute burn or nute deficient??? (PICS)

    I am too. Figuring it was nute burn I skipped a couple fert rotations and tried to be more careful ph-ing. Today I tried upping P (9-50-10: Cha Ching mixed with 2-8-4: Tiger Bloom plus Grow Big as per FF's schedule at 40% their recommended dose. I'm just starting the 7th week flowering and...

    Overwater Solution

    Hey, sorry I didn't get back to reply. I lost the thread. The pot's still heavy; the fan and intermediate [?] leaves have mostly turned crispy, but the leaves just around the buds have come back greener. And they're still developing. I let it go a week or so at a time, then feel I have to...

    Overwater Solution

    Repotted. What a mess. The root ball was dense, but not, in my limited experience, overly so, but a lot of the perlite had migrated to the top. Maybe it's just a wimpy plant. I'll see if it made a difference in a couple days, I guess.

    Overwater Solution

    I likely overwatered a plant a while back that's into the third week of flower. It can't seem to recover. The soil is really dense even though I used a 30% perlite mix. Though it started as a runt, it's stunted and lime green, yellowing on the bottom. I'd really like to save it. Repot it...

    thought on ordering from nirvana

    For what it's worth, and since no one else is responding, I've ordered on line twice in my six years of growing. I ordered from Nirvana three years ago--Jock Horror fem auto and Short Rider. Almost immediately after I ordered there was a flurry of complaints about that season's Jock Horror fem...

    Apollo, Hydrofarm, iPower, Virtual Sun.....HPS opinions anyone?

    I upgraded my 400w with an Apollo 600w with adjustable output, a cool tube, hangers, a timer, and two hps bulbs off ebay--mega low mart--for $141. It has mixed reviews, but it's been working fine for about a month.

    PH Meters

    I used the cheapo Milwaukee ph600 last year and it worked pretty well. I let the probe dry out during the offseason, and while I did feel the earth rumble a bit, I'm using it again this year. It still seems to work pretty well. Go figure.

    Light on Extension Cord

    It's orange. An indicator light. I'm a little paranoid about light, and electricity. I had a hermie last time I think due to the damn light on my power strip.

    Light on Extension Cord

    My new 12 gauge 15 amp extension cord has a light built into the female end. Can I safely duct tape the end to douse the light? Thanks.

    Adding Nutes

    I've found grow big to be pretty hot. 1/2 strength burned my three week olders. They've come back but again I learn patience.

    A Little Liquid Ooze

    A little liquid has oozed out of a couple larger fan leaves. I've noticed this a couple times on earlier grows. It doesn't seem to be a problem, but I'm wondering what it is and why. Watered two days ago.

    Light advice?

    I bought a 600w with a cool tube, two hps bulbs, hangers, a timer--Apollo--for 141 on ebay. Mixed reviews, of course, but it's been working for a week. Have to have ventilation though.

    Need good northern light seeds from a good seed bank

    I'm growing two NL #5 at the moment (regular, not fem.) from Peakseedsbc. I'm far, far from knowledgeable, but I've had success with them on two occasions in the past. Peakseedsbc, from Vancouver Island I believe, is highly regarded by several. $40 for 10 regular seeds and free shipping ($30...

    Apollo cool tube

    Got it. Thanks. It's kind of a poor design. I may not even use them in my small space.

    Apollo cool tube

    As I said in an earlier post, I got a great deal on an apollo ballast, cool tube, a couple bulbs, hangers, timer--$141. But, and I feel like a doof, does anyone know how I attach the wings to the cool tube? It came with two sets of nearly-half-round straps, a smaller set and a little larger...
