So i Have come to the 250 Grow club with some questions for you guys. Its been a good couple years sense i have grown anything and that was with cfls. I plan on building a grow box whats the ideal size for the 250? 4x4? i plan on using reflective insulation board to build me boxes. Also how many plants do you guys typically do? 2 seems to be common. can the 250 be used all the way through the grow? Also any seed recommendations for a small potent plant would be great or one tall plant. I have only ever done bag seeds people have given me. i need to get over my internet ordering fear.

Any help would be great thanks guys

a 250 watter will do up a 2x2 or 2.5x2.5 area... I have gotten mine {grew with a 250 for years} has close has 5-6 inches from tops of plant w/o burning.. no cool tube just a reg. fan

Yep, I just use a 4" computer fan hanging directly under the bulb, and if you were so inclined, you could quite happily touch it without burning (ambient temps are usually nice and low though here). I used to have my plants 3" from the bulb, but found the plants and budd's furthest form the light looked healthier, so adjusted to 5".

It's not about the looks and I like the pure head rush I get from it bro, it's about perserving genetics for me. This strain has been around since the 60's.

Oh and I can't rave and rant about sk cuz your bitch ass wont hook a bro up ;)

This certainly resonates with me.

I want to try Old Timer's Haze for this reason.

I just need to grow a big pile of smoke.....as that will be a very long flowering cycle!

We appreciate anyone spending energy on maintaining important genetics.

Yo ace, nice shade of green you have there. How is the tin-foil prop doing? You got long before you can re-pot?

Oh, and maybe hold back killing off the odd plant, a couple of my strawberry cough's looked fucked as young seedlings, almost heart shape leaves, which was cool but kind of worrying. Thing is, by the time they had a couple of nodes, there was no way of telling which of the 5 looked deformed at first, and very little variation at week 4 flower. Give it a little longer :)

Yeah I will give it a lil longer. It's looking a little better today.
I don't know what was wrong with it.
I'm going to let them set in the cups for a couple more days.
I like to let my plants get almost root bound before I re-pot.
Lol the tin foil thing is doing pretty good I did know if it would
really work but it's hanging in there.

Oh yeah, its a silly amazing plant. Dropped the tupperware prop lid on top of my 3 seedlings the other day, they just sprung back up the second I lifted it off and kind of went "EEaaarghh!!!! That the best you got? Pussy!!"...and they were literally like cress, just a few days from breaking soil. Just checked them, and they are just starting to show roots at the bottom of the pots

I hate the perspective effect of a well taken pic, those leaves look bigger then my hand!
