Been thinking about firing em up.
It's been probably 10 years, so they might explode...

Oh man are those ever cute...
Those are tiny HID's. 250? 400?

 

[Aqua Man]

Lol man.. my old school SE hps get no love anymore

Need that ppfd super high for co2. Otherwise I would have no issues

Leaning to the scorpion diablo now. It may happen tonight.

Yep. 400s. I've only recently come out the closet...

And, before that, the closet was too fucking hot!

So youre saying there is no sense using Co2 with SE lamps?

Oh no it will help... but the more light the bigger the benefit

 

[Aqua Man]

And the aqua shitshow continues lol. I can get my co2 filled on the spot mon to Friday. Guess what today is and my tank just emptied lol. Now the hunt for somewhere open starts.

 

[Aqua Man]

Ok excuse to buy a new tank... so im off to grab a 5lb to use for fil times of the 20lb tank. No fill stations open until Monday.

Its gonna be nice not lugging that 10lb steel beast that @Dirtbag has around. I fucking hated that tank lol enjoy bro you will see what I mean. These new aluminum tanks weigh nothing.

For sure. I picked up a 20# Alu tank with some welding supplies a couple weeks ago and its lighter than the 10# steel tank i got from you lol.

You really got me digging now though and Im curious to see how benificial the Co2 is gonna be with my lighting. Im only putting out somewhere between 1000-1500ppfd with my SE 1k super HPS lamps.
Maybe I can drop the light a little closer to them to increase the ppfd at the plant. I for sure have a smaller footprint to light up this cycle.

You will see a benefit definitely. Probably don't need more than 800-1000ppm though. Thats the killer. At 1500 ppfd 1200 is gold.

No issues from oversaturating them with Co2? Besides the obvious waste of gas?

 

[Aqua Man]

Back in business. I think I'm holding off on the light. I'll cut mine up for better spread until I can make up my mind. But gonna be a bit before I even do that. So much going on IRL.

Nah bit I would cut the co2 last couple weeks.

No worries there. Ill have 30 pounds to last as long as it lasts. Being vented, ill be surprised if i get more than a few weeks from it.

Think you may be surprised... can also cut the flow rate if it stays on all the time. But see how she goes.... is it up and running yet?

Not yet, I dropped off the tanks for hydro test and refill yesterday, ill pick them up next week. Timing should be just about perfect.

Why test? That one was certified and and in date

That one is just getting a refil, the 20# needed a hydro test. But i dropped them both off right at closing time and they didnt have time to fill the steel one, so i just left them both for pickup next week.

I was in my local grow shop and was ushered to look at the new lights they had in stock. theyve got them up for £800 but says he will do a deal on more than one. they look good from the spec sheet
