Affirmative, I guess that goes with the theory then... lol magnetic ballasts Will do

Thanks for all the replies. I ended up going down and checking all kinda shit before going to bed, just couldn't leave it alone. What it ended up being was the extensions... apparently my ballasts dont have enough juice to start the bulbs after (approx) 35 +/- feet of cable. I started the...

All the connections have 240v from the power supply, If I check the outlets on the flip box going to the lights themselves, should they have 240v?

PS, i've wired several of these boxes and never had an issue.

Okay, i just got done setting up a room. I use an 8 light controller box (or whatever its called). Power box wired to plug in 8 1,000 ballasts. I only use 4 at the moment. Well, in one socket, my hood flickered on off on off on off on off (1000 hps, magnetica ballast) I changed where it was...

Thank both of you for your responses. I was negative, but barely. I've turned it up. I have no inlet fan (co2 burner). I think the 4'' was just not nearly enough for the room size and like you said...duct resistance. I have a couple 90's before it dumps outside. Hooked the 6'' up and have it...

If you have a fairly air tight room, well constructed, how strong of a negative pressure do you need? any guideline on a % of the CF total of the room as a rough estimate to go by? EDIT I know this may seem like, what the fuck is this guy over complicating it for? I have roughly 70CFM pull on...

good info, thanks guys

Alright, I read that to get the full benefit of co2 @ 1500 ppm you need to bump temps up to upper 80s, even seen some claims of 90-95. My question is, would that not open your buds up a little? Heat causes the calyxes to spread out, so would you have big weight, but fluffy buds? I run 1500 ppm...

ya, i got lucky i guess. The guy seemed alright, I played dumb. "what usually causes RF interference?" he replies with "loose connections, or bad splitters etc" I said Oh, I see...then he showed me the read out on his little box that measures it... I said I was going to get some things out of...

I'll be needing 1ks, I run digitals now but had a scare with the cable company over RF recently...they had a lot of interference coming from my house, I had to go kill everything while the guy was working on changing out a splitter he thinks fixed it... currently I run lumatek/galaxy/digital...

I am going to have to buy a couple of ballasts and just wanted to get some input... After seeing a few threads about capacitors bursting/igniting/whatever I am not really thinking "buy the cheapest thing available" HTG has its own brand of magnetic ballasts as well as agrostar &...

If you are running a sealed room, say a 20x20 or bigger, what are you doing for air circulation? lots of oscillating fans? Fans blowing across all plants for sure? curious to hear what some guys are doing.

not ALWAYS, but the past two times yes. I will double check my flows I dont take from the same spot, some do come from the bottom, and wouldnt be "ideal" cuts. Although they do veg at the same rate, I always pick the best clones to run with...but this is something I guess I should try and add...

Okay, all plants are given the same nutes/water/light/air/etc etc etc 1 out of 8 clones will produce significantly less than the other 7. (strain is green crack) I've been running this strain for about a year now, no issues until about 3 harvests ago...since then its averaged 1 out of 8 plants...

Exactly what I needed to hear, thank you

Okay, say a 12 light 240v controller made for 1,000's the ones im looking at appear to have a 60 amp breaker. If you plan on running 12 lights should you go above a 12 controller, or can it handle the 12? 12 1ks on 240 is something like 53 amps (giving the 1ks a little more than an exact 1000...

I got 8 zips off a critical mass plant in an ebb n grow 3.5 gallon bucket inside a 5 gallon bucket.

I should have been more clear. What have YOU (who ever is reading) pulled under a 600 or 1k with no topping/lst/super cropping etc. Just natural growth. Coco...

What type of yields do you guys see with natural plant growth? (Christmas tree) No topping/lst/super cropping etc
