250w HPS Club And Help Guide

oh thanks for the tip!

hey i assume this has already been covered but i looked through most of this thread and couldnt find the answer.

anyway ive grown outside a few seasons to i pretty much have everything down as far as what to do with a plant and what it needs. I have a 250w hps and a small 3 x 5 closet. I would just like to know from your guys recomendations, cuz ive never done indoor by myself, wether to do one large girl or like 4-5 little ones.

The more the better! Also the top colas are the most potent part of the plant so you'll get a bunch of good weed!

I don't get to post that often but I'm proud to be a part of this forum. Some day I will finally get some pictures up of my last grow. Got about 4oz off last single plant grow. Was bag seed but friends are saying it was the best smoke they ever had. I wish I knew what it was and that I would have taken a clone or two from her. Oh well planning next grow now.

What the fucks up stranger.....

I know right Mind?!

Where the hell you been Wretched?

great thread guys. been looking for a 250watt club im a 250 watt user currently growing 1 nirvanas Ice one GHS Kings Kush and one DNA Sour Kush. there all femed and ive had them on 12/12 from seed all diff ages tho. sour kush is only about a week kings kush is about 2 in a half weeks and the ice is a month in a half and just starting to put out hairs.

Hey guys, i have a cab thats 25"x21"x49". I was originally going to go 150 hps. But i can buy a 250 hps ballast kit from htg and assemble a diy cool tube for the same amount that i wouldve spent on my 150 setup.
These are the things ill be using

4in inline fan

diy cool tube
http://forum.grasscity.com/do-yourself/495256-advanced-diy-no-cut-20-non-bake-round-cooltube-5-parts-3-tools.html

diy carbon scrubber
https://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?p=509470

Ill also have some sort of fan inside the cab to push the air around and also strengthen the stems of the plant. Ill have passive intake holes. So would i be able to handle the heat of a 250 hps if im pulling air through the carbon filter, through the cool tube and out the cab through the exhaust?
Id appreciate any advice or comments on this setup.
thanks
