Have 12 315 fixtures, about to pull the trigger on bulbs.
Have been told 3100k bulbs are the way to go particularly if I'm running a short veg (10-14 days). Leaning towards going 12 3100k but open to mixing 6 3100k/6 4200k. Does anyone have any experience with both setups?
had an issue, blew out a 120v circuit... Wondering how difficult of a fix it will be? Gonna have to have an electrician come into an almost completely setup room to fix it.
Won't have to go too far to find a trustworthy electrician but would still makes me uncomfortable having someone in my...
Gonna try a new room with 315s. Gonna be my first time using CMH.
Will run at least 9 to start. What is the agreed upon footprint on these?
Thanks in advance
have had plants hanging for a little longer than normal. Haven't been able to hand trim fast enough so still have a lot of em hanging. I've given up on hand trimming and I'm gonna get a trim machine to take care of the rest, but how much longer can I leave em hanging until it's ruined...? The...
Hey guys, I just had a light controller die on me on the first day of a 2 week flush. I'm strapped for cash right now and won't be able to go out and grab another light controller for at least another day. But that would put them at 2 days of no light. I know that's not the biggest deal in the...
Okay, so I built a pretty basic watering system in a cramped room. Won't be able to get to plants in the back of the room in a few weeks... Well, I will, but would be a major pain in the ass... It is now really.
Anyway, watering system isn't great and the there is very little I can do to...
Running a new strain under DEs. Started out with a 5' canopy, plants have grown and reduced the canopy to about 4'. Had the lights turned down for a bit, but couldn't resist riding out my typical schedule and flipped em to 1000... Been having bleaching throughout. I'm about to flip to 12/12...
Don't know anything about LEC. Nothing.
But I'm wondering whether using LEC's for supplemental lighting and keeping my nanolux lights at 1000 instead of turning it up to 1200w (super lumens) without using LEC's is a better route to take.
So keep nanos at 1200 without LECs vs Set nanos to...
Experimenting with coco, and I need to size a DTW res that will last me 3 days for 42 3 gallon smart pots at 80/20 coco to rice hulls, under 4k DE. Auto water, aiming for about 10% run off.
Thanks in advance.
Is this a terrible idea? I have never ran a mini split, have no idea what installation requires, and have no idea how strange it would look to have a dual zone 3 1/2 ton unit installed in a basement. I'm sure it's not typical but I'm also confident I can come up with a believable story, but if...
I haven't been growing in soil very long (always been a hyrdo dude), but as long as I have, I've only watered about once a week (4x4 soil bed, about 8 gallons of water, good salt marsh hay mulch). I water with a tea every time. Do any of you see me running into any problems? Nothing has gone...
Does anyone have any recommendations for a soil I can veg in that doesn't have to be cooked. I need to start a new run and don't have time to wait for the soil to cook. I'll eventually transplant into a large bed of cooked soil, but for now they'll have to veg in beer cups of uncooked soil.
Can...
WTF...
I know these DE's (nanolux) are powerful, but wtf. I'm getting bleaching at 4' from canopy. Plants have been vegging for a month or so, and I didn't do them any favors as they spent most of their time vegging with 300w LED about 5' away from the canopy (I had to) and this didn't really...
I need meaty clones for my sog. Don't have room for mothers, so I have to take clones from my vegging plants. But they only veg for 18 days (no till, organic soil) and don't grow large enough to get me the cuts I need. I'd like to take 2 cuts from each plant, but I'm having trouble even finding...
Okay, so I used homemade, very fresh worm castings for my soil mix. It took a lot of time and energy to get those castings and had to source some from local farmers and that took a good bit of money... But, I was more than willing to do that for my soil mix.
However, I'm not so sure I'm willing...
I made a similar thread quite some time ago, but my situation has changed so I'm making this one...
Ok... I have 4 4'x4' geopots in a really tight space. REALLY tight, especially if I stuck with a square layout. An L shaped layout (meaning 3 of the geopots in a line and the last one placed in a...
I have a powerbox 7500 that I've been using for single ended HPS setup that I have, but I'm switching to DE. The powerbox has 120v circuits on it and I was wondering if there is anyway to switch the circuits out to 240v circuits to accommodate DE lights?
