Thank you, thank you.

What's messed up is how unprecise I am about mixing nutes and controlling pH. I just pour straight from the bottle. I have and idea of how much I need for each gallon of water, so I just eyeball it now.

I can't wait for that to backfire on me. But I didn't check the package when I bought the pH kit and some asshole had poked a hole in the bag and took the measured 1mL dropper out of it. Using 1/4tsp measuring spoons is impossible with my shaky hands, so fuck it.

But it works.

Everything is going pretty well.

Acutally... I may have a 400w HPS tomorrow. My friend that got me into growing just moved and won't be using his for a while. So we're gonna swap lights for about 5-8 weeks. I give him my CFL fixture to get his going and he gives me his HPS so I can get blooming.

Hopefully I will have pics under a "new sun" tomorrow.

My homeboy just dropped off the light about an hour ago. It's a Hydrofarm 400W HPS all-in-one grow light so the ballast will be in the tent also. Let's hope I can control the heat.

Also I have that batch of flowering nutes mixed up and ready to go at 1760ppm and I'll gradually increase the ppm until the show some burn.
Lights on in about 6 hours... will post pics then.

:hump::hump::hump:

Hydrofarm Sunburst 400 watt high pressure sodium is now in place...

oops, forgot to rotate before upload... tough shit, turn yo heads, bitches!





So I have an HPS now... only problem is the ballast is attached to it, so temps have jumped up to between 85-95F. I've been playing with opening and closing flaps in different combinations to find the best venting. What I have now keeps it under 90F, so it'll do for now. I have another little 4.5" AC fan, but no drill to modify my spare 4" flange to accept it. But I may just let it simmer for now.

All six of the new cuttings are showing some decent roots, with a few that have explosive root growth (I think I found a mother).






Here's a better pic of the girls outside of the tent... that HPS makes funky lines on the camera:

Thank you, kind sir. Much obliged.

Anyway, we are now 9 days into 12/12 for Emerald and Violet.

In another 18 days, Emmy's clones get moved into the tent and I'll take 6 more clones from Violet, or three from each.

My stress level is finally dropping over this.:blsmoke:

you can take the housing apart and remove the ballast. get some 12/2 wire and some wire nuts and tape. locate the two wires that power the bulb, disconnect them and splice the length of 12/2 wire in between them. tape the nuts after securing the wires together. done. you can remot locate the hot ballast outside your room. I did this with mine and my temps never go above 80F.

290 co-sponsors (2/3 majority) in the house as of today! Same day as the release of Ron Paul's End the Fed book!

It's funny how Ben Bernanke comes out and says "oh yeah, the recession is pretty much over." Just about the time we're about to audit that despicable organization!
