Still in high school. Runnnnnn

sealed room are the only way to grow. Wasted a lot of time trying to do the fresh air bullshit.

Thinking about adding a few more an see how they do watt for watt. Their expensive little boogers though, over 500 a piece.

AC was modified to keep the 315 room the same temp as others. All measurements are at canopy.

Own a small business, rent income properties, play the stocks and grow.

Veg is the same for every room. 3-4 days under 4ft 8 bulb T5s. I think it's the lack of a spectrum change from the T5 to the CMH causing the lack of stretch. My plants under the 1000wDE finish around 30 inches, starting at about 6. The plants under 315s never got to above 24 inches, cutting my...

Thanks. I have run the same strain for 6 years, I know her like the back of my hand. I don't think people are saying in doing something wrong, just that I haven't hit the 315s full potential. I've heard claims up to 1.8 gpw on the same strain I grow. (Not the same cut). I grow SOG, the 315s...

Just played around wit a kilowatt meter and some 315s. 110v 315 pulled 382 watts from the wall. 220v 315 pulled 348 watts from the wall. 220v SolisTek Matrix on 600 pulled 628 watts from the wall. 220v SolisTek DE on 1000 pulled 1108 watts from the wall. So my 6 600s were pulling 3768...

While I get the math, was told by many these would easily replace a 600 some people even saying a 1000. That is the buy point that I went on, so when that wasn't even close I was bummed. I've done 3 runs now with the 315s, and never even hit a full 5, it was almost 2 oz short. I'll just say...

I'm throughly unimpressed with my 315s. I replaced 6 600s with 6 315s and yields went from 8 lbs to 4.5 to 5 at best. I'll b doing one more run with them, if it doesn't get better I'll be getting rid of them. IMO, the people who are trading them out and getting better results than before...

The ballast doesn't know your using a 860 watt bulb. It's job is to send it 1000 watts of power the socket can use to the socket. The extra 100 watts is a by product of the ballast.

16-1800

Don't bring girls to a grow house. Don't tell girls you date you grow. It never works out for any good.

In a 12,000 watt room, me personally I'd put a 24k btu on each wall. If one dies the others will have no problem keeping up. And will allow you to run whatever temps you'd like (some people like to drop lights on temp last few weeks to add color) in whatever weather you get (hot climates). But...

6000 btu minimum for 1000w light.

Simply keeping all outlets a nema6-15 would eliminate the the problem of people plugging 110v equipment into 220v power. I completely understand where your coming from. It's the person not knowing any betters fault, but manufacturs should realize not everyone has that knowledge and to keep it...

I haven't opened a mag ballast in probably 4 years. The hardcore ballast has 110/220v on one unit, but it's wired to one voltage during production. They then put a cap over the other voltages input on the ballast. I think their 208v/480v ballast is the same way. Logistically I understand, it's...

What ballast are you using?

Yea. I'm thinking more about the old school mag ballast that are either wired to 120,240,208 or 480v. They can only run one voltage, yet most of those ballast use the same cord for 110/220v.

I'm confused. Are you agreeing or disagreeing?
