Yep,looks good.Do you mean 600w Hps?........come on man,you gotta know those waste a lot of light and are hot as a bitch:)just saying there more efficient ways to get great buds..imho.

I was bitin nails over the heat issue...so i got the port. A/C...
Turns out i didnt even need it...inline fan cools nice

I got the 600W hps only because it was +/- the 1000w with regards to lumen output
& still cooler to run, plus lower usage.

MH bulbs offer more blue spectrum light
HPS bulbs show consistent spikes in the yellow to orange spectrum
T5s allow you to access color spikes along the color temp. scale

@godwork damn, I run 2 1000 hps in flower and a 600 hps in veg. I also have 2 flouresent lights in veg tent for clones. I wonder if I should switch it up to save electrity? I have more plants then you though.

So let me ask my fellow texans, any compost tea recommendations? Ingredients that is. I'm going to try organic, so I'm going to use fox farm ocean, wanted to make supesoil but don't have the room. Don't care about smell so I'm gonna make compost tea. My tea so far will include high p Jamaican bat shit, Peruvian seabirds shit, lol kelp non sulfured molasses, humic and florid acid some Epsom salt, a mixture of blueberries ,apples,oranges and bananas peels, pulp and all, earthworm casting, alfalfa pellets. I baiscly been reaserching and reading a lot of stuff thought Ill just combine some recipes together. Let it sit in non chlorinated water with airstones for 24-48 hrs get nice and frothy. What do y'all think?:?:

Makes sense to me..............just that hps and mh bulbs put off full spectrum of light..right?Weed no likey.
Click to expand...
MH is close to the sun in spectrum, HPS nothing like a full spectrum, or at least not balanced. HID lights are more efficient not less than flouros. In other words they put out more light and less heat per watt consumed. Plus they have much better penetration. Once you get the heat issue under control, there is no comparison. good luck :)

BTW, weed likes a full spectrum.

Guys....Im not a genius im just saying fuck Mh and Hps lights,to much inefficiency in using them,Led's are the way of the future!One more time they put off full color spectrum,cannabis grows optimally under red and blue spectrum...........that's all I got:):):):)

I got a bunch of LEDs :) I'm doing combo this time to see what kind of difference there is... definitely a big heat difference :) But my room was already cold and heat's not much of an issue.

@s.w.a.t...I think that its awesome to have multi 1k watt bulb grows....

My format was design to produce an ultra premium personal grow

3 x3 ...tent...with the trellis...
In order to gain the right per m2 output

600W & T5s...with a 400cfm/carbon scrub & 9000btu a/c for flower...ambient temps.
above average lighting for a single strain...plus spectrum difference

5 gal. ...45 Hp air pump w/ 8" air stone....
I almost put the ultra sonic fogger inside...for fine root hair production & better uptake

The CO2 was/is a dream....
Grow room area: 85.75 cubic feet
Amount of CO2 required: 0.1029 cubic feet
On time: 6.174 minutes....this is how long it takes to reach 1500ppms

At this flow rate:
If you are using a 20 pound CO2 bottle with a regulator, it will last 174.8 hours....I GET POWERFUL GROWTH from using it in veg.

My feed is just as crazy...
I really meant it when I said... "I want to produce DANK!"...I read & try everything that I think is valid

@godwork wow you got it down to a science man.:clap:

I have co2 and injector 20# Ac/dehumidifier like 2 1000hps, I just recently lowered them down more, 12x12 room I grow sog might switch to scrog idk. I have a big ass cfm fan ducted to the lights and carbon scrubber. Im planning on taking my 600 hps out of my veg room, a room with a 10x5x8 tent, and putting it in my flower with the twins(1000w).

I'm thinking about putting a 4ft 4 bulb t5 with veg bulbs to replace it or a couple cfl's 4or 5, don't know which to choose from , I already have 2 flouresent bulbs 24 inch ones over my clones .I'm hoping the t5 or the cfl's with 2 fluorescents are enough to veg my clones, my plants that I let veg for like 2 weeks before transplant, and my 10 mothers.

I feel you my brother I want to also produce dank, my quest lol that's why I'm adding more light in flower and going organic. So you let you co2 run for 6 to 7 mins? How many hours intervals??? Let me know what you think about my veg ten lighting situation .
