impressive yeild by anyones standards dude, how do ou find the cooltubes? have heard there not worth useing but never used one myself so can really comment on them....

can see where you would need them tho, with 2 600w`s running ..
cooltubes are shit ae for reflection etc but 2 fit in a 1,2mtr tent alot better than any other reflectors m8 and that amount of light in such a small space = yield! lol

Another good guide there.
No clawing at all and they definitely weren't overwatered.
I only noticed little brown spots on the fan leaves last week and as it progressed over the next few days I thought it was a cal/mag issue,now the issues have appeared on the second set.It is growing well and I'm not over worried but nice to catch any probs early.

can imagine with the 2 600w`s they would be handy for heat extraction, looking at your yeild tho i`m seriously thinking of investing in another one... yeild like that would cut my yearly grows in half...

Alright lads, never thought fluros put of much heat till this eve. Didn't have the extractor going and it got a lot hotter in there than I thought it would. Being honest I thought it was gonna be cold not starting them in the prop.

yeah my cfl's aren't too hot themselves but when i open the wardrobe, i get a slight heat blast from the top only cos of heat buildup. i can't imagine the heat build up of a hps system. it's why i try to keep it open as much as possible. although my tiny half powered pc fan keeps the temperature perfect

you can let a plant grow right up to a bulb, but make no mistake cfl`s get hot, especially the higher wattage ones that are self ballasted..


i got about 500w of cfl lights and when there all running it gets mighty warm in there.... you are right tho the hps is serious hot and in confined space can get out of hand if not kept in check..
