    Boycott Alert: Sunlight Supply, Sun System lighting

    Well said and I can respect that perspective. I didn't really think of it from that angle, but it's interesting. I know it's not about "self-preservation" as they state. If I own a hydro store and one of my vendors comes along like SLS and says that I can't carry AN anymore I'm dropping SLS...

    Hydro (Advanced Nutrients) vs Soil (Fox Farms) ~ Fucking Incredible

    I ordered the 600w lights today from HTG Supply. So hopefully they get here pretty quickly and we can get things really underway. I still need to purchase another carbon filter and maybe a fan depending upon the heat these lights generate.

    RIU, You chose it, I'm growing it. Fucking Incredible!

    Those pictures were "Friday Pics" and today I'm @ 5 weeks, so I'd say those were day 30-31. Yeah, DST, I'm on the side of keeping your leaves as green as possible throughout flower. I took a long time growing that foliage and I guess it just pisses me off to see it go. Those are the solar...

    Hydro (Advanced Nutrients) vs Soil (Fox Farms) ~ Fucking Incredible

    Sweet. I'm going to hold out until tomorrow. Apparently they are closed on Sundays and Mondays and I'm a dumbass for not noticing, so my bad. I will call again tomorrow and try to place my order, I really want to get the lumatek ballasts and I hate "max-wing" reflectors. Those are garbage, I...

    Hydro (Advanced Nutrients) vs Soil (Fox Farms) ~ Fucking Incredible

    Crazy as it is, I can't seem to order the lights! I have the money and now I can't order the lights. I don't know what's up with HTG Supply, but if I can't get my order in today I'm going to have to shop somewhere else. I have been trying for 2 days now to get this going, but no go. Now here...

    Hydro (Advanced Nutrients) vs Soil (Fox Farms) ~ Fucking Incredible

    Things are still moving along, I swear I'm ordering the 600w lights today and hopefully I can get them here by next week. The T-5 isn't going to provide enough covereage for both sides for more than another week so hopefully they don't drag their feet shipping my shit for too long. I got my...

    RIU, You chose it, I'm growing it. Fucking Incredible!

    Yeah, he's trying to be funny because he knows this is really bothering me. So I was starting to get concerned as the plants started to REALLY yellow and they started to look like overall shit and then it hit me.... If you google Fucking Incredible and look at grow journals that are done...

    You can always go the alibaba.com route and import it straight from China...you'd make a lot more money.

    Haha....don't get all bent, that's a guy who I know has a lot of respect for my ability. He's someone that I actually know who think's he's funny. Here's an update....I decided to apply a bit of the scientific method here because I couldn't decide what to do and something needed to be done...

    RIU, You chose it, I'm growing it. Fucking Incredible!

    Thanks...I'm going to eliminate simple overwatering and I'll go right now to the hydro store to get some H2o2. If cutting back on watering doesn't solve the problem (I did add a watering cycle this week and they did start drooping this week) then tomorrow I will start using H2o2. It definitely...

    RIU, You chose it, I'm growing it. Fucking Incredible!

    That's what I thought too, but I added a watering cycle and it got worse. Generally when they are underwatered they perk right back up, these got worse with more water. There's no leaf curling to indicate overwatering, but I'll follow the advice of fdd2blk here, he's a pro. I'll hook that...

    RIU, You chose it, I'm growing it. Fucking Incredible!

    Yeah, they are drooping like a motherfucker! That's what's pointing me in the direction of root rot, the yellowing leaves, the necrosis, and the drooping. Without the drooping I don't necessarily know it's root rot, I have mesh-bottom pots and the roots on the bottom look healthy and good...

    RIU, You chose it, I'm growing it. Fucking Incredible!

    Oh man, everything on the lower part's of the plants has gone limp. I'm leaning towards Pythium (sp?) now which sucks. The plants are pretty lifeless and I don't think that they'll end up making it. Of course I'll see it through as far as I can, but it seems almost pointless now. I've never...

    Thank You Severance pay

    Are you planning on doing a legit grow after these are finished? when I say "legit" I just mean a grow not based on speed, but on production? I understand needing to bang out that first one and A) recoup the costs and B) get off the ground with haste. Here's where the concern lies I...

    600w Lights

    I'm looking @ purchasing 2x 600w lights. I currently have one 600w with a magnetic ballast and it's in a Sun Systems I believe XL Horizontal hood (it's an older one). I am looking at purchasing 2 more 600w lights and I'm looking @ htgsupply.com and they have quite a few options and I'm not...

    Advanced Nutrients has class....

    That is a bit much, I don't want to him to go anywhere. I just want him to stay our of the Advanced Nutrients threads that he has nothing to add to. This one doesn't even bother me much (until he started trying to post ridiculous pictures and claim it's indicative of my growing OR of AN when...

    hps or t5? "advice please"

    There's really too many factors to tell, but I would say 8 is achievable with the 400w. But if you hav the room for a 4' 6 bulb floro you have the room for a 600w air cooled and you can try to get 13-16oz's out of the damn thing. But I understand the need for keeping it small. I only ask...

    hps or t5? "advice please"

    If you ask anyone who has used T5HO's or even large CFL's they'll tell you, they put off PLENTY of heat. The same way that they spread the light across a large surface they spread their heat across a large surface or surfaces. The cumulative effect of the heat from T5 is more substantial than...

    hps or t5? "advice please"

    I am a little confused by the original question. Why is the choice between a 250w HPS and a 400w T5 fixture? They are both great lights in their own respect, but here's the thing. The T5 is going to give you more coverage and space. You could theoritically anyway flower 40 - 60 plants under...
