150w HPS Club: Inspirational Resource

Why was that you that said i dont know wht im doing that while back? Back to talk more shit? What did that poster say that was knowledgable? All he did was talk shit, in multiple threads.

Just for the record. C-h-e-c-k-

Hey all! Got some aurora indica under a 150 watt. She's definitely loving it! Here's some specs of the setup:

-2X3X5 tent (with reflective mylar)
-HTGsupply 150-watt hps
-Passive intake
-4" inline for exaust (with scrubber!)
-9" high velocity fan (pointed up toward the bulb since the lamp is about 2-3" from the top of the plant!)

Pretty simple. I'll try to post pics of the setup later. In the mean time how bout stopping by my thread and checking her out!!

I wouldn't. It is what I have been using and currently using. Man...you need a bigger light...it will do, yea but eh....not really worth the time and effort....be wise, get a bigger light.

I disagree,





Noticed earlier someone talking about growing under 60 grams?? I got half of that right here,

Dude, I have pictures of mine on here that look just as good or better than your plants....guarantee you they aren't near the hype as what they look...and if they are, congrats...I spent lots of time on here showing off my plants and yada yada...come time to smoke, the buds weren't dense etc. This entire battle of whether or not 150 watts is good or not is just beating a dead horse...yea, it will produce a lil...the pics will look good, yada yada....if you could, you would get a bigger light..u know it, and i know it. again, congrats....

ya im joinin this group, subd, check me grow out

If you read my journal I am probably going to be buying a bigger light soon. The plants I have in veg now are ridiculous compared to whats flowering currently. Those are grown in dirt, literally. I feed them with the same Dutch Master nutes on the suggested feeding program from them. They are 31 days @ 12/12. And they are from some regs during the christmas season my buddy left at my place. However we will see what a 150 can really do as my garden is perpetual and I just loaded three more plants in there. Bubba Kush, Purps, and PG13. They are from an all hydro set up and they are slightly different than most plants I have seen on here.

To avoid jacking the thread I'll only post two pics, these are 30 days old or 40 days depending on front or back row



and they all look like that,



So I will need a much higher concentration of light to reach the interior of the plants as training these with any other method than SC is not feasible.

View attachment 944076 Hey working with the dr60 and 150 hps.Just got clones today The Purps.Bent one of the tops, now it wont stand up.Will it be ok for me to cut the bent top off and plant it as clone? Going to transplant into 3 gallon pots.Can i do this to the broken top.1st grow dr60 150 hps

where is it bent? cant really pick it out. Unless broken all the way through it will usually straighten itself right out again.

Also how do you intend to grow the plant, meaning what if any form of training do you plan to use?
Also, since your plant is new, can I ask if you got about $60 you can invest on her? If so PM me.

plant is bent about 3/4 at the top.Was wondering if i can take it off and make it a clone? If i do that it would be giving me another lant and will be topping the 1 that is broke am i correct?
This is my first grow so i might try to lst not sure which way yet.

wow..its good to see this thread is still around!! lol

Im in a darkroom 60 tent with 150 hps. I have 4 ladys 2 purps,1 nl,1 kush unknown strain. Im use 3 gallon pots blackgold soil cns17 nutes in mid 2week of floweing.The purps are about 3"taller then my other 2 and it looks lik i might be press for space.I raised the 2 shorter plants so the light would be even.Now the question. If the 2 shorter plants are showing more bud site and seem to be flowering faster if i get rid of the 2 purps will the other 2 yield more having more space?Hope this isnt dum question, first grow and didnt lst but fimed all 4. sorry for random message.

I haven't finished reading through this thread yet and will continue to do so. Thanks to those who have contributed to this thread.

I'm going to be running a 150w HPS with 1 125w daylight CFL in a homebox xs tent that's approximately 2'x2'x4'. My goal is to yield an oz and a half with 2 plants in 6 liter or 10 liter square pots. I have approxiately 13-14 weeks to complete the grow with a veg period of no more than 4-5 weeks. I know SCROG would probably be the most efficient technique to use, but I don't want to attempt that. I have thought about using UB's method to top for 4 colas and then using LST to tie those branches down. I've also considered fim and tying down. Lastly, I've thought about just LSTing at about 4-5 nodes tall. Any suggestions?

selling my 150 next week. i'll probably upgrade if/when i start growing again.

I just bought me a 150w last night. Im going to throw it into my room onec it gets here. Lucky I'm only a week into flowering. Should fatten up the buds a little more huh?

You know, I don't know why people hate on people that use the 150watt HPS lights.

They get the job done just fine.. maybe those people should take in consideration that not all of us are into growing 500 plants at a time.. plus not all of us are drug dealers.. who are simply and only growing for the sake to make money off of it.

I personally.. ONLY grow for my personal consumption. I don't sell it.. I fucking smoke it.

So, to everyone that thinks that using 150watts of HPS isn't enough lumens to yield nice dense buds... well, I'm here to tell ya.. your WRONG. Way wrong.. so before you run your mouth like you know what your talking about.. do some research first. Just because you might have not been able to produce anything with a 150 HPS.. doesn't mean everyone else can't. Because I can.. and have.. and will!

I actually have two of 150's though. Plus, I use a couple of 42watt (150watt equivalent) CFL bulbs for side lighting.. but yeah with all that.. I'm perfectly able to get nice dense buds. Also, I usually never yield less than an ounce per plant.. and I always grow at least 2 plants per grow.. if not three plants per grow. So do the math.. yeah that's plenty of bud for my personal enjoyment.

Also, when I only had just the one 150HPS.. I still had the cfl bulbs for side lighting.. and I still was able to produce nice and dense and beautiful buds that had plenty of weight to them.. for my enjoyment.

So, again.. to everyone that is knocking people that grow with 150's... maybe you should do more research before making such comments.

Especially Mr. MedicalMarijuanaGuy (You don't have a clue..) I highly suggest you go do some more reading and research my man.

to everyone else.. peace & Happy growing to all of ya's!

peace..

the old trusty 150 hps doing its work...........

i got this with a 150 and some CFL side lighting, just one plant, i weighed most of it out at 20 grams, but there is still the two biggest branches to the left in the pictures that i haven't weighed yet, so the yield will prob. be a little over an ounce
