    Using Light Mover For 3 Tables?

    I have 3 2x4 flowering tables, and they each would have 8 plants on them, so 24 plants in all. Could I place a light mover over the three tables, and use 1 light to sufficiently light the 3 tables? Possibly have 2 lights moving back and forth, instead of 3 stationary? Would this provide enough...

    Should I use 600w or 1000w?

    My system is a perpetual grow. The trays are 2x4, so I was figuring 8 plants on each tray. I will have 3 2x4 trays beside each other, all flowering, in different stages. Should I use 600w or 1000w over each table? The better question is, can 600w provide the amount of lumens necessary for 8...

    Quality Of HPS Bulb In Perpetual Grow?

    I posted this in Indoor Growing as well, but I think it's better suited here. I'm going to be doing a perpetual grow. The vegging will be done under t5s. I bought 5 white plastic 2x4 grow trays. One will be for mothers/clones, one will be for vegging, and the other 3 are flowering. I have 3...

    Quality Of HPS Bulb In Perpetual Grow?

    I'm going to be doing a perpetual grow. The vegging will be done under t5s. I bought 5 white plastic 2x4 grow trays. One will be for mothers/clones, one will be for vegging, and the other 3 are flowering. I have 3 1000w/600w AC Lumatek ballasts. I have a few questions about the setup. 1. With...

    Is this big enough for a 2 bucket DWC SCRoG?

    Here is my current project, it's 28x20, and plenty of vertical space. I've read that a SCRoG should be 1 square foot per plant, but my screen only has 20x17 of screen space. Is that sufficient, or should I just remove the screen part and grow 2 decent plants? It's under a 250w MH/HPS. It's still...

    Move from 150w CFL to 600w HPS? 6 Weeks Flower

    I have a plant under 150w CFL, and it's 6 weeks into flowering. I want to move it from the cabinet to a bigger grow area under a 600w to finish it, all by itself. The plant is in a soil container. Will this shock the plant, or will it take advantage of the extra light? Thanks.

    2x2x6 400w HPS Ventilation?

    I am building a cabinet where I'm implementing the ScrOG method on 2 DWC buckets. Would a 400w HPS in a 2x2x6 area be overkill, or get way too hot? Would a 4.5" axial fan mounted to the mini cool tube (located here) be enough to cool it down? The axial fan it rated at 112CFM. I plan on using a...

    Recirculating Top Feed?

    I just had a flood and drain setup, and it was hard to manage a plant individually because of the way I had it set up. I'm about to get some clones and put them in 1.5 gallon pots, and have 4 of them on my 2x2 tray. I plan on running the water pump to an irrigation manifold to split it to 4...

    24" Fluorescent Fixtures/Tubes?

    Is there a place that sells these at decent prices? I would really like 4 bulbs wide as well. Everywhere I find them they're expensive, and don't look handy for growing lol. Any input would be helpful =]

    Any Curren$y fan trying to get their hands on a RAW Tray?

    I got one for sale. Much better condition than the one in the picture (don't have a camera). You can tell in that picture that the right half is scuffed off or something. http://www.ebay.com/itm/110934202605?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649 If this isn't allowed you can...

    Best Container For Ebb & Flow?

    I've considered Smart Pots, but I noticed that roots would grow through them. Would square plastic containers be my best bet? I figured I'd use one of those filled with Hydroton and either Rockwool, Oasis Cubes or Sure To Grow cubes. Any input on either of these would be helpful. I'm using...

    Roots Growing Into Pipes?

    I have 4 plants in 4" rockwool cubes in a flood and drain system. It has an 18 gallon tote as the resevoir below the table. The roots from the 4 plants are starting to grow down the pipe that pumps the water into the tub. I have a screen over the pump and everything (the black plastic ones at...

    Am I Flooding Too Much Or Not Enough?

    My plants are a couple weeks old and are around 6 inches tall. They have tons of roots covering the entire bottom of their 4" rockwool cubes. Everytime I look at them they're drooping. Yesterday I changed the flood cycle from 1 time a day to 3 times a day. Once at 6:15 AM, once at 1:15 PM and...

    Flood & Drain Table Cover?

    I am using a Lowe's concrete mixing tub (approx. 26"x20") and have read that the table should be covered. I tried using panda film and clothespins but it's kinda messy, I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on how to make it a bit cleaner? Here's a picture of it with the panda film...

    Rootbound In 4" Rockwool Flood & Drain?

    A couple of my plants are starting to droop, and the roots are coming out the bottom of the 4" cube. Should I buy a mat or something to sit it on to extend the roots or will it fix itself? I've seen people do full grows in just 4" rockwool cubes, and my plants are only 1-2 weeks old.

    Flood & Drain, Rockwool Sitting In Water

    In my flood and drain I use 4" rockwool cubes and a Lowe's concrete mixing tub. I have it elevated towards the drain hole, which sites about a quarter inch above the bottom of the concrete mixing tub, therefore any water that gets pumped in will drain out except the 1/4" that can't reach the...

    Starting Under 600w MH Safely?

    At what distance should I start it out under my 600w MH from seed? Should I dim it to 50% or would that make them stretch? I'm doing hydroponics and they're in 1" rockwool cubes right now.

    Clamping 1/2" Hose To Water Pump?

    I bought some 1/2" stainless steel hose clamps to keep the connection secure, but I wasn't thinking about them rusting :\ I've tried zip ties, but they're not strong enough since my tubing is so thick. Are there any other solutions here? I've looked online and found a single brass clamp for $10...
