so i have one nice little plant that i got from my buddy who started it in a phototron that i sold him but he got sketched out so he had me take the plant. now its under a mh400 light in my closet. ph is 6.5 temp is like 77-86 degrees. humidity is like 35-45. the leaves are curling up...its not terrible and its getting better since i got it from him but what could it be? i am watering with bottled water and no nutes.

second question is i wanna bud this thing with a hps light. is there any DIY people in here who were able to put one together for less than 100 bucks? i have been looking but no luck. any ideas id love some. thanks

heres some pics

To me she looks fine but hell what do i know lol I think you could get a 250 watt hps at home depot for around 70 bucks and if your only doing one plant then thats more than enough. Man you can tell i'm bored as hell, been on this fuckin forum all day.....

so you think a 250 hps would be enough huh?

next time i will have 2 plants in there do you think that it will be enough for two if i make a good hood for it? my buddy is a sheet metal fab guy so i could have him make a nice reflective hood for it....so is 250 enough for 2 plants? what about if the plant is like 3 ft tall when i bud will my lower part of the plants get enough light? if not what could i put on the sides down near the bottom to give more light? all the help is greatly appreciated

Why bother with a reflector when you can just hang the bulb vertically between the two plants, less cost, better light penetration and more eventual bud. Check out megayielder420 and his grows. There are many vertical grows to check out though.

Might not be on their website but i know I saw one, doesn't look like a normal grow light but it's made for say a garage or porch. Go down and take a look, you'll find something that will work
