I don't flush, just drop ec over the last couple weeks until I'm at about a .2ec for the last 5-7 days, which is around 100-150ppm. It's such a low level the plant is forced to use any reserves, but there's a balanced mix available incase it doesn't have enough reserve of a certain thing such as N,P, K,Ca,etc. I've done it both ways and think I get a better end product this way.
Stop using that outlet before you start a fire. Usually 2 breakers means it's 240v, one breaker feeds one leg of 120@15A, the other breaker feeds the other leg of 120@15A, giving you 240v 30A, and seeing how it powered an electric heater. .it's probably 240v. If that's the case you need to find a different circuit, no way to safely get 120 from a 240 circuit. Do you know how to use a multimeter to check the outlet voltage?
no not exactly sure how to use it, dont have one either. i cant just turn off one of the 15amp breakers and run the outlet on the other?
What ballasts are you running? Mag or digi's? My digitals do 120v or 240v just need to get the correct cord. If yours will run on 240, just get the cord, then you can use that outlet. The older mag ballasts can usually be rewired internally for multiple different voltages, mine can be wired to run on 120,240,277,and I think 360, and 480v.
That's weird, ya they are usually connected, like the red one. That way if one trips the other does as well. If those are both feeding that outlet it's dangerous, one could trip, one couldn't, keeping power flowing to an issue. You sure they both feed that outlet? Is the heater they powered still there? If so go look at its voltage, that'll tell you what voltage it was getting.
From my experience between a ~350w t5ho and a 400mh. About the same growth, t5 is usually shorter and thicker, tight node spacing, the Mh tends to stretch a little more. It transfers over in flower, Mh vegged plants usually end up with more spaced out nodes in flower. I vote T5.
Amber stamen is different that amber trikes. You need to watch your trikes with a cheap handheld microscope and wait for them to be at least cloudy if not all amber depending on whether you like a heady high or a body high.
Looking good brah!
@Sal Baretta Come stai Fratello? I used to live in Italy and man did I love it, but I sure did miss quality green buds. When I lived in Umbria the regulations were super strict and was super hard to find any green bud. Only time I found real bud it was super shitty, so I was smokin spiffs with Moroccan hash all day cause thats all I could ever find. That was over a decade ago. How are the regs now? Ciao!
What up @sky rocket . Well, I think internode length is way better with T5s, but the overall growth is faster with metal halide. I personally go for the T5 option.
Thanks for the feedback. I'll stick with the t5's. With my setup I would rather have short and stockier plants.
What two strains are they?
Yes its definitely possible, but why would you want to?
Because the rail system is too big for a tent so I can get around it by using the buckets
