Here is my current setup. white widow and bubblicious from Nirvana. have 20 clones that I flowered right after they rooted. the WW are about a foot tall and the bub are all under a foot. they are under a sunsystem 2 400 switchable light, in a 2x2x5 tent, with a eco inline fan (160 cfm). K.I.S.S. method all the way.

Here is my first grow. One 400hps light from start to finish (other than fluoro for cloning). I realize the screen at the bottom isnt doing jack shit, I started flower a week late and the girls grew to be WAY to big, I had to modify my cab to accomodate their size, otherwise they would have burnt to a crisp. Planning on harvesting in two or three weeks.

Very nice!

What is the K.I.S.S method?

Keep It Simple Stupid. k.i.s.s

yeah what convict said... Keep it stupid, simple. only used fish fert of 5-1-1 and for flower some alaska morbloom 10-0-0. this is only my second crop that is almost finished now. my next run I am trying a super soil type recipe. hopefully I will just have to add only water, and maybe mollases. i'm not sure if the stuff i'm gonna use for the SS will have whatever the molasses has. so that will keep it very simple and stupid.

That seems odd that you went from 5.1.1 to 10.0.0 for flower, normally you want to decrease N and increase P and K.

How is this working out for you?

regards,

yeah my bad, it is 0-10-10. This is really only my second run but it seems to be doin okay. I am afraid to use to much, so I am being cautious. I think the bubblicious is nute sensitive from what I can tell an the Widow loves the nitrogen. I am not sure how to tell if they need more P and K? From what I have read the leaves go yellow for low nitrogen but I can't remember for the others.

Sorry to butt in, but what brand/type 400w hps bulbs are you using? I need to replace mine and I am not sure what the "latest and greatest" is, so I figured I would ask for opinions. I apologize if it's in the thread somewhere, but it's 460+ pages...

Thanks in advance

I am using a cmh bulb from advanced tech lighting http://advancedtechlighting.com/cdmed18.htm I ran a hortilux EYE that came with my ballast on my first grow and then switched to the cmh. from what I have read I don't think it matters too much. everyone has there opinion. I think the cheap ones are just as good as the expensive ones. U get some extra lumens and maybe some blue in there for 50+ dollars more than a regular hps bulb. I went with the cmh for the spectrum. I am happy with what I got. cost about $60 and came with a hps bulb. BUT I am far from an expert, as this is my second grow, I only know what I have read.

Hey guys, I'm on my second grow now with two 400's mh for veg and hps for flower. My first grow was a bust, got two males well I now have 5 girls about 5 weeks in flower doin pretty good! I wanted to get some advise if possible, I'm picking up two more 400w ballasts today and was wondering if I should run all four of them? I was thinking about runnin two mh and two hps. Anyone ever try this? Think it would give me more yield? Any input would be appreciated!!

If you can exhaust the heat of running four lamps go with the mix.

Thanks, yea I'm gettin a bigger exhaust over the weekend, I was also concerned with the increase in wattage on the bill, hope it's not too suspect.

Another 400W will not be suspect, if your paying your bill on time $10 - $20 a moth extra only makes the electric company smile.

Here is a video of a 400 wattter with 10 cfls, NEED advice, begginer!! Screwed up things from start, but whatever, they are going well. it is 42 days into flowering, i thought the buds would be bigger, but there is just a shit load of bud spots on the sativa, the indica(haha i no i pronounced it wrong) in the vid, is budding pretty well. I didnt top the sativas they are like 8 ft tall. I should of trasnplanted along time ago, but didnt, so im lettin it rock out. pls give advice, do the buds look like there supposed to 42 days in? and how much do you think i will produce from them? and how long left? I need them to finish in 30 days!! and do i need to move hps light? Thanks!!!!!!

hey MeistroMoney i reckon intead of moving the light shade it'd be better if you can train the plants around the light once the get too close mayb some wire or something but im sure your plants will b flexible enough.Anyways best of luck

Hey i have a wooden shipping crate 3ft sq 2.5ft high im going to use a 400w light 4 the grow wih a philips mh hpit plus 4 veg and lucagrow hps 4 flower, my vents will all b from my collection of my best computer fans.
Im using emergency mylar blankets 4 wal cover but i was wondering what you all think would be better sog or scrog?
THANX in advance btw there has been some nice pics on this forum the best one ever.
