Lighting - 400w super HPS hortilux eye bulb

I was actually reading that journal of yours a couple weeks ago, sorry about what happened. Does this strain respond well to fim'ing? Also, how high of ppm can they take?

i topped mine abot 30-40 times each i swear, i counted the top bud on my small plant and it was 44 and never botherd doing the big one lol
the ppm is quite good if you keep on top of it i was using A-N
but mid flower the really need to be kept a eye on twice i fuked up but srted them qucikly :)

I plan on feeding them until they cant take it anymore, need some nice fat buds

beilve me you will end up with fat buds :) but i wouldnt inrtoduce nutes heavy i wuld introduce slowly n onlly keeping adding nutes if you nt seeing any problems
 
I've grown this strain a bunch. They are pretty forgiving, they do seem to be pretty heavy feeders and like their nitrogen for sure. I wouldn't stick to the Lucas formula but whatever, makes. I diff to me. I just think they enjoy more N. Trying to maximize ppm is a sure recipe for burn and reduced yields. My ppm maxed out at around 1700 in weeks 4-6. Started to get some micro problems at that level. Always better to start low and increase when you see problems pop up rather than going hog wild and then wondering if it is lock out or a deficiency.

Good luck
 
3/3 wwxbb germ'd, put em in my medium and now we wait for roots to hit the water. Using a couple CFLs for now until they are all settled in.

When should i turn on my HPS? I usually do it around the first set of true leaves(served me well many times). Any one else do something different? LMK
 
i put mine straight under my 600 watt hps as soon as the sprouted out of there jiffy pellets :) but i noticed with my cuttings that they really do like the cfl's :)

they are just kickin' their seed shells now, prolly will turn on the HPS soon, ive got my hood 3 feet from the seedlings for now
 
Yeah, you can do that, but at this stage its kind of a waste of electricity. If they are just shucking their shells, they are still using energy from the seed and tap root, they are not really actually using a whole lot of photosynthesis to produce carbs, they are just using stored carbs. This is just a fancy way of saying your wasting a lot of light by basking them in a 600 right now. I would wait until you get a couple sets of true leaves.

Either way, its not going to make a whole lot of difference. More about proper temps and sanitation at this stage of the game.

Good luck.
 
MH WILL provide tighter nodes. I flower with a mix of both.. but it is a pain in the ass to switch the position of the MH bulbs every week. 8 hoods.. 6 HPS and 2 MH.

Problem right now is that when im using my flouro's the temp gets in the low 60's in the grow room, HPS keeps it at a nice 76. My house is drafty as fuck, need to go out and buy some plastic for the 500 year old windows :P
 
Sounds like you should pick up some insulation while your at it. Cold night time temps will cause ssssyttttrrrrrreeeeaaaaatttttccchhhhhh
