No actually I was going to say in my last post that im not even really sure they make a hortilux bulb for a 150. U may want to google different bulbs for 150's.
Either way man. The 150 aint no joke. And this grow has alot of potential especially if u keep things all nice and dialed in.
My main problem with the 150 was heat tho.
Later in flower especially after the stretch u may want to back it off and let them bask around 9 inches or so.Just keep the heat of that thing off the tops u should be fine.
Plus it looks like u have a little bit of CFL coverage as well/ That should also help with stretching.
I almost got a gram/watt with my 150.
Just keep ur conditions proper. Especially ur PH.
Good stuff bro. Good to catch up and see ya around. Lots of good info here.

I use Cfls because the 150 doesn't have large coverage 2 sq feet! so the scrog was thought up to get the most out of this grow

Yes bro. It is a very smart grow actually. I like the scrog in this case. U will be able to utilize ur wattage/cubic foot better this way. And completely manipulate this style of growing to the fullest extent.
Very smart bro. I see u havent taken the lab coat off lol.
BTW Awesome pixels as well.
Matter of fact man i cant really say enouff good about this grow.
PROPS.

Ok, Next were gonna talk about the scrog thing.

I only do this because I have a like that puts out 16k lumans, this is enough for 1 mid size indica plant.
I knew i didnt want to wait 6 months, So come up with https://www.rollitup.org/grow-room-design-setup/233908-easy-sog-hydro-setup.html .
This wont work with the 150 alone it will need to be a 400.
So half way set up I build a screen the inside diameter out the whole grow space to "train" the plants to grow on a vertical Plane.
6 clones, Two weeks apart, two strains 8 weeks later...

Each container is sitting on another just like it to make chaning easy. Once the plant has become established the roots hang from the screen, Fresh Air for about 5 mins wont hurt, Right? Small clones sit on old Readers Digest till they touch.

+ rep for the coffee can idea.
I drink a few cups o' joe first thing in the AM while tending the girls, looks like I need to switch to Maxwell House.
At first I used Folgers cans but they are Round friend gave me the Square MH (I didn't know they made plastic cans) and its been on from there.

They just fit together like blocks!

Hey man, nice pics and info, I read through from page 1 but I never saw where you said what you are using for lights and detailed info on the lighting. I was hoping to buy this off my local craigslist and use it for a 1 plant grow : http://i26.tinypic.com/10z8i2e.jpg what kind of light(s) would I need? Someone told me CFL in a post I had going but they didnt elaborate. Thanks for all your info!
