im only using these new bulbs for flowering. veg cab willl still be 10,000k, 6500k and one 3000k.

ill take a couple quick pics after dinner bro :D

the tombstones on the ends are cheap n easy to replace. much easier fix than if the ballast was busted

ok its one of those single fixtures, i dont even know where the ballast is on it LOL. Ill have to see if i can figure how to take it apart. Where can i get one of those ends.

Those 10k's showin faster veg or more dense lush growth than the 65's? im still half and half 5500 and 2700 in my micro. and all 6500 for veg at my other spot.

see that grate on the bottom thats WAAAAAAAAAY open for bugs to crawl through? your going to have a huge root ball comin out right there i would prefer pot in between me and the bugs, they can have the roots that come out of the pot but they wont get to my potted root ball, see what im sayin? However on an ebb table that HUGE open grate on the bottom of the pots will be bitchin to have roots comn out and flowin all over the table. I honestly would just say thats my personal opinion and thoughts on the matter. I spray the FUCK out of my pots outside to keep bugs from crawlin on em and i would hate to have bugs just walk right in through that HUGE gap, its why i actually like the smart pots better than normal pots no holes. Also why i prefer to bed my plants and not pot them cuz theres a barrier between them and bugs. Im an anal retentive outdoor grower, i dont want you to know my outdoor was outdoor, I want you tellin me it was indoor it was so pristinely clean lookin. So i get way anal about how i handle my outside plants worse than inside to be honest. lol

They would work great, i just would not want to chance the bugs gettin into it, thats a personal preference thing, i wasnt saying they wouldnt do the same thing they do inside or not work or somthing. I just have bug phobias for my plants LOL

The 20 litre Air-Pot is the perfect size for growing larger plants, trees or shrubs for at least two years.

It is also fantastic for growing tubers such as Dahlias and begonias. The 20 litre is a shallow pot and provides a warm, well drained growing environment which tubers prefer.

dont let the size fool you these are suggested sizes for small trees...

yea i hear that but smart pots are cheaper than that and so are geo pots that are thicker and have velcro and dont break down AT ALL. For outdoor i prefer cloth pots inside its all about ^^^^^^ those ones now i just need $ to buy them.
I feel ya i like saving a dime here and there.. But like everything you own... its all about return on investment.
