Can you not run them at night Pompey? My rooms at 30 the last couple of days.....for the few days a year we get high temps it's hardly worth getting too worried about it. Similar to plants having cloudy days really.

afternoon guys my ballast broke last night ffs when u power it on it clicks the blub gives a little flash then nothing prob Igniter
The bulb has probably died early.


My Lumii ballasts do that when a bulb is fucked, safety cut off inside, they won't fire a dodgy bulb.

Check the ballast with another bulb that you know works 100%, I bet it'll fire up.

When that happened with me I'd only had about 6 weeks solid use out of the bulb, the guy at my local grow shop guarantees bulbs for a year, I told him the story and he told me to bring it back and he'd just swap it for a new bulb so I did.

Funny you should say I wasted about 7 gram bubble hash trying to melt it into pg/vg
Needless to say it didn't work lol

Because there's only a small amount of hash that will dissolve into a given amount of PG/VG before it starts to fall out of solution.

You need an ultrasonic processor/sonicator to reduce the hash particle size so that more will dissolve into solution.

Hey guys this question has probably been asked buy since there are 9000+ pages. I grew out multiple strains in soil using smart pots on my last grow.

THC Bomb, Dinafem Critical plus and some skunk #1 clones not to mention Dinafem OG KUSH.

Cut them down all at 8 weeks (ikr) but really was my best work dense nugs, good smoke and smelt amazing. My question is tho. People are always going on about lems. So #1 is that lemon haze and #2 in London specifically is this the choice of smokers coz I here that name brought up by everyone.
