    Multiple 220/240 outlets off one breaker

    Hey all, I need to run multiple outlets off of one breaker. Does anyone have a wiring diagram to help reassure me I am doing it correctly? IE. Diagram for parallel or series. I want to make sure I do it right so I don't cause a volt drop when two ballasts fire up. I do understand...

    Ventilation into Furnace?

    Hey all, I want to vent hood-hot air into my furnace so that it will go into the vents and spread throughout and heat the whole house this winter. Should I hook it up straight to the intake port of the furnace or into the metal box the intake vent and outputs for the house ducting is? or just...

    hermaphrodite help!

    Okay, so I was inspecting my ladies tonight and noticed something bad. It had a small ball growing in one of the flowers... my assumption.. a seed. Well I scan more and more and see that pretty much every single one of them has them as well. Some smaller and deeper inside of the plant than...

    Hey guys, I am interested in building one of these "see the link I post below". The site I believe is trying to front their overly priced power relay. $20 plus shipping. Radio shack has a bunch for about 7 dollars and lowes for int he 10+ range. I am sure one of those will work. Does anyone...

    Question about Digital ballasts!

    A 600 has been proven to be more effecient over a 1000. If you have to pick just one probably a 1000 is the way to go.. but if you are covering a larger area. 3x600's would beat out 2x1000's if done properly. One thing to take into account is that the amount of light the plant is using from...

    carbon filter...?

    The air passing through has the odor eliminated.. So technically, yes, you can improve the smell in a room with a recirculating system. However whatever is smelling in your room will probably give off the smell just as fast as you can clean it. Try using an Odor Neutralizing agent bucket...

    Harvest a Pound Every Three Weeks!

    Joking about my hamster generated C02 system? Of course not. (Please read my signature) I find that if you dose the hamsters with a 10cc water to half capsule crushed caffeine pills you can improve your PPM of co2. Its a little higher maintenance than say a CO2 tank but a heck of a lot...

    Breeders only please; Selecting cross

    Honestly, to add to my only things to look for are early flowering and size of male flowers to my earlier list. The most potent plant might not pass on this trait, and the healthiest plant might not have favorable combining ability. Judging a male by visual appearance and also smoke testing, or...

    Breeders only please; Selecting cross

    Branch and node spacing as well as branch thickness. Not really much else to look for other than your mentioned vigorous growth at a young age.
