    400W vs 600W

    Hello all, well I got the fan hooked up and it is really moving some hot air now....nothing special, just a cage fan.. good thing is it's rated for 24v so it is moving more air than say a 80mm or 120mm pc fan. I just taped it to the end of my 4" dryer tube and that was that..the metallic duct...

    400W vs 600W

    It came in yesterday and I finally got it all hooked up.. Temps in the room are now 80F vs 77F previously...(intake air to the room is 76) I think I'll have to hook up that PC fan to the end of the 4" dry tube after all. I'm also considering either expanding the the 4" room intake air to 6"...

    400W vs 600W

    So I went ahead and plunked dow sum $$$ for one of these High Tech Garden Supply and upgraded the reflector to one of these. High Tech Garden Supply I'm going to run a 4" dryer tube up to the air scrubber and see how effective the passive ventilation will be.. if enough heat isn't being...

    My 2nd grow: Raft and DGHaze

    Bummer...sorry to hear about your oaxacan. How did you know it was the right time to clone and what to clone. I wanted to try it to maintain a min grow of 10 and replace any male fall out with a female clones...but at this point I can't tell male from female ...day 5 of flowering. Love the...

    400W vs 600W

    I'm currently running 2x 250 MH @ 4200k supporting 10 plants. I used them for veg and had planned on using them for flowing but I'm quickly coming to the realization that I will not have enough light to support all my babies. Even if 1/2 of them turn out to be males. The room I grow in is...

    Venting and Cooling

    Depends on how many females I end up with... If it's more than the 2 250W MH can support then I'll have too plunk down some $$$ for one of those HTG 400w HPS kits. The bulbs in the MH are 4200k...not ideal for veg but it got the job done...not ideal for flowing either..dunno if it will git her...

    Venting and Cooling

    Hello all.. I'm about 3 days away from throwing the switch to 12/12. 1st time grow and I currently have 10 plant looking lovely under 2x 250 MH. (plus a 85w CFL. What can I say, I just couldn't pass up the lumens) It's a soil grow, Fox Farm Ocean Forest, and the water and nutes are PH'ed to...

    Lighting...your thoughts

    The lights are 24" from plant top...but I did read that the lumen are dramatically reduced based on bulb age. The bulbs are a year old so it's probably due for a switch. I'm running them on a B-Line Electronic ballast which is suppose to lengthen bulb life and reduce electric use by...

    I'm Back!

    After being out for the last week and a half I finally scored an "O-Z" or should I say my darling lil Mrs. scored me an "O-Z".. thank God for good women. Anyways I rolled it up on and let it burn out for a few mins before halfways so it's pretty decent. Surprising ..the headache I've had for...

    why the heck do you smoke that stuff?

    I smoke cause it keeps me from killing the kids! :mrgreen: j/k. Seriously though I find I have way more patients with them when I got a lil buzz going. It also makes food so much more enjoyable and relaxes me after a stressful day. Also makes sleeping a lot easier...jeez I never realized what...

    Lighting...your thoughts

    My babies (8x) are almost a week old now.. but even with 2x 250w MH lamps burning 24/7 they are stretching for light. The bulbs are 10000k Ushios that I used in my reef tank. I fear that they may be a bit to heavy on the blue side of the spectrum. I found this one today while surfing.. do you...

Talk about a rough gig...20 below and waste deep in snow. Anyways, I had scored a joint of hydro from a...

    PC Gaming

    I spent a good portion of the new millennium playing Mechwarrior 4 along with all the expansions...but recently got hooked on BF2142, and truth be told I own when I play stoned compared to when I'm straight. I think the weed relaxes me and I manage to get into a zone a hella lot easier...

    Hello from the Surfer

    Hello all...long time smoker 20+ years , first time grower. I just got sick of "it'll be tomorrow." or "I can't get a hold of my guy." I've been out for a week now and it makes for a very grumpy mf'er. So I decided to take control of the situation and just started my first grow. Granted it...
