It's a bit unfair as I have 600w on my lady
400w HPS and 200w blue Envirolite and 23w UVB, it's like walking into the sun just as you wake up...blinding
Nice work Tahoe, your babies are loving the new light..thought they would. You aren't far behind me you know, but I bet I win haha
I would wait a few days at least until moving the BB, they seem so happy there and growing well so a few more days surely can't hurt...did you mean moving them under the HPS?
jeezuz,,i miss so many pages with this thread,,on a dailybasis,,now yur talkin my language,,lol,,they look good Tahoe,,nice separating and recovery job,,now,,from my experience with these,,if your male didnt show early,,like mine,,(ow),,then watch closely at around day 35 -45,,cuz that was when any others would show,,(ow),,so far,,for me,,and usually the best lookin one,,will be male at that time,,but since your not gonna have any,,(positive thinking),,then you won't have to worry about it1. the back of the business end...showing co2 bottle and regulator, and my oil-filled radiator....

3. three individual BigBud @ 25 days vege...
4. three individual BigBud @ 25 days vege.....
these guys realy seem to have been turned on by the 200W cfl....they look soo much better today...than the last few days...though I have also taken peeps advice...and let them dry out too.....
,,cheers
Been lurking. UV is at it's peak from noon to approx 2. If so, then it would make sense to have that bulb come on from the 5th thru the 7th hour of your 12 hour cycle. If you could put the bulb on a rheostat and have it ramp up from zero to 100_at the 5~7th hours and then taper off to zero again at the end of your lighting day.
You're a scientist. Growing pot is a challenge?some good progress made.
Without the lights all on - temp. seems to be pretty steady 70-75 and humidity ~30% - With the lights on it looks like I might have a temp problem. I have had the lights on for a couple of hours and its over 90 actually. But I still need to put a small fan in there for circulation which should help? I really did not expect the heat cuz so much has been written that CFLs do not produce heat?
I should be able to figure something out to manage the heat - though venting is not really an option so I'm not sure what to do. Man o man that is stinkin' bright - 9 x 42W CFL - 378W and 23400 lumens. I realize this is not anywhere near what some people are using.......but...i guess we'll see how effective this setup will be. Decided to use one of those windshield sunlight deflectors for reflective material. Oh well, guess we keep making some small steps forward and see wherer we end up...what challenghes will present themselves, and what successes we will experience.

pics please....well...i checked in again on my girls (Friday night).....and the stats are becoming rather impressive....I went back through my journal, and last measured a couple of days ago....the Top44 has gone from 12" to over 15" now. and bushy index is approaching the european old-fashioned standard...hehehehehe...
The BigBud girls have simlarly gone from 7" to 9"......things are changing rapidly.
The calyxes on the Top44 are beginning to multiply and become much more prevalent - many hairs visible...though still pretty small for pics? More importantly, I do believe that at least one of the BigBud has already shown her stuff too....but its all a little early still. But none the less....even if I have two out of the four plants as fems...I ain't gonna complain.....who'd listen anywho?!
Just a side note...its sort interesting to sit there watiching them briefly and hear the pppsssstttttt.....of the automatic CO2 injection....sweet deal....man o man...I made the right decision to get this unit. I can't wait until I get all the hydro and automatic watering system in place....let's get this one done and finished first!
I'll check in again tomorrow (Saturday)....and pics will come again on Sunday evening...I believe I will be putting the BigBud into the Flower chamber on Sunday - I expect they'll be in the 11"-12" range then and on their 10th node....so that should be good...and they certainly have seriously robust and stout stems to carry that bud weight....cheers folks...things are starting to get seriously interesting now. Am I having fun yet?....more like I am STILL having WAY too much fun! is there such a thing as too much fun?
