    Is it worth buying an expensive light bulb??

    Thanks for that info, When i do up grade I want a 600 watt HPS with digital ballast. With a 6" cool tube reflector or a medium Adjust A Wing reflector ,with a light spreader. For now I will just stick with the $25 400 HPS bulb from HTG. Like I said It has the same 55,000 Lumens as...

    Is it worth buying an expensive light bulb??

    Thanks for your input, I am very happy with my yields so far using my HTG light bulbs. The Hortilux is more than 2X the price, and I'm low on funds so I think I might stick with the cheaper bulb.

    Is it worth buying an expensive light bulb??

    Hello, I am using a 400 watt HPS grow light set up that I bought at HTG about a year ago, and it is almost time to replace my bulb. I was wondering if I should buy the same bulb for $24 at HTG, or is it worth paying more for something like the 400W EYE Hortilux Super HPS 400 Watt Bulb...

    Skunky Papaya & Aurora Indica grow

    Aurora Indica was the strain I used on my very first real grow, and it is still my favorite strain. I liked it so much I named my puppy Aurora. I use the fox farm line up of nutes and I mix it weekly, and Both strains are looking great so far.

    Skunky Papaya & Aurora Indica grow

    I moved my 5 Skunky Papaya plants to the flowering room tonight, but I am keeping the lights on 18/6 until Friday the 30th. That way I can keep my cycle of harvesting on a weekend. I might add some bushmaster on Friday as well ,but I'm not sure yet, I'll have to think about it for the next two...

    All the samples I've sampled so far have been great, I'm putting it into jars today after I pick out a few more samples for me to sample. After it cures for about a week I will post up a smoke report, after another sample of course! Have a happy new year I know I will.

    The pics are both on the day before and after I harvested. I did A single plant scrOG style grow, and I used a 400 watt HPS light to flower her. I used the Fox Farm Line up Grow Big, Big Bloom, and Tiger Bloom, along with Snow Storm Ultra. My medium was Black Gold Organic potting mix, and this...

    Thanks I'll post up a smoke report when it is ready. I'll let it hang for another day or two making a total of 4 or 5 days hanging. Then I paper bag it for two days then jar for 1 week min. As you know the longer the better, but I will be dipping in early!! LOL

    This is my harvested Feminized Full Moon plant! I would guess after I remove the bud from the stem I will end up with about 1 to 1 1/2 ounces of dry bud.:hump::hump:

    Skunky Papaya & Aurora Indica grow

    I fed them today for the second time, still only 1/3 strength nutes. I also like to water a little with just plain water before I water with nutes, (especially when the soil is very dry). I like to fed them like that because i feel if you water with just fertilized water when the soil is...

    I actually got busy yesterday taking care of my mom, her cancer is getting real bad. I was not able to finish harvesting, but I will finish today. A good thing is that i got a package from HTG yesterday and in it I ordered a new pair of pruning scissors, so I can use them to finish harvesting ...

    Happy to have ya along! This will be a style grow, unlike my other scrOG style grows. My goal is to start flowering the Skunky Papaya right away at about 8 inches tall. Maybe even start on Friday or by Monday the latest. With the Aurora Indica I'm just looking to find a mother plant. I will...

    I just got my replacement light bulbs in from HTG today, (that was fast shipping)! I have decided to replace all 4 of the light bulbs this time, and save the old ones for replacements. Last time I did it the other way around. Hopefully they last me a long time this time around...lol And I'm...
