Interesting anyone to back that up!

wire your own pc fans up. get a dc adapter like a mobile phone charger. cut the end off the fans and the charger and wire up the colours. simple.

e39 is the bulbs screw fitting, e40 is the light fitting you need.

You need an e40 light fitting, a reflector, a 400w ballast and a relay/contactor to get that up and running. Nothing more, nothing less :)

Simple to answer, Impossible.

Yeah a crazy idea and you haven't mentioned what wattage of lights you are going to use. In that space you need to be looking at something like 250w but if you can get more and keep it cool all the better. Get some pictures up. What about light leaks? Smell? Wires? I guess this is you trying to...

Do not LST autos they have literally no veg cycle and you will stress your plant and seriously hurt your yields.Grow them naturally and get more light in there at least 200w of CFL for an ounce a plant. Subbed though lets see how this goes.

What lights did you use, What nutrients, what medium, what size pots and in what grow space?

Its a plant, in its natural environment the sun shines from above so its designed to absorb from above. the underside of leaves dont absorb light at all.

Can't believe no one has given you this advice it is so important when growing with CFL's. 1) Get you CFL's no less than 1 inch from every budsite if possible. If your not LST'ing, ScrOGing just get them as close as you can to the top of the plant. 2) Get some blue light in the room during...

I've done a few grows before and I'm currently on Day 30 Flower. I always leave every fan leaf the plant grows and tuck it underneath the canopy to ensure it doesnt cover the budsite as you can see in the picture. In the second picture it shows someone whos on day 48 flowering, has took all the...

How come you have chopped most of the leaves off? I did this once and it really affected my harvest. Yours look real good though. When did you do this?

I use the ones which are about a foot long. Never used the twisty ones because they dont put out as many lumens. I use Powerplant, Plug and Grow and Envirolites only. But this is UK?? I use mixed spectrum but some just use blue for veg red for flower? If you have the ventilation why not use all...

You don't need to use two fans. You can use one fan to either push or pull the air from the reflector or cool tube. as long as the ducting is sucking in fresh cool air the cool tube will do its job. For example dont let the ducting pull air from your grow room, let it get air from outside the...

Yeah definitely going with the 600w HPS, question is how many? Think it is going to be two seperate systems one for veg one for flower. You talk about these water-cooled lights any idea where I can find them and which would you recommend?
