Well i just got the HPS pretty much ready for the install later. (put it on floor just for example).
As you can see size is an issue, a possibly heat. I have no room for a cool tube, but hopefully this fan will keep air moving over it, and the hot air will get blown away into the exhaust. If not i will cut a hole into the reflector and route it too the exhaust.
The Reflector is a sign i got at the local hardware store, works great, and cost 2$ I painted the other side flat white
My little guys are starting to smell, and it smells great.
Damn nice grow man,
I suggest you start our 12/12 now for the are going to still grow 50% more there size atleast.
And if heat is your problem with that HPS light you should just replace every other Cfl with some red spectrem Cfl's, Easier to do too.
Saves money and will mostlikly be as effective as the hps considering your setup/room space.
Lowered them. They were about 1 1/2" away from the lights. I also put my last 20 watt cfl in the right socket after i looked at the pic and realized i had it, totaling to 120 watts.
The very bottom leaves are starting to yellow. I'm not to worried because all the other leaves look great, ill probably end up just cutting them off, since I'm sure they don't get much light. #1 looks happy.
Transplanted into slightly larger pots filled with Foxfarm Ocean Forest soil (Last night). They were previously in Black gold organic soil. They seem happy. Ill start using Foxfarm growbig soon once they get used to the soil.
I'm just waiting to see what these yellow leaves do. If they keep going ill cut them off. My guess is its not a problem.
Well I'm not 100% positive that they are anything good, i think there granddaddy purple. I have 8 more seeds so if they end up being something good ill go again with them.
Otherwise I might end up getting some white rhino or norther lights online.
