wow 10 days between watering is pretty long. i think that would be your problem

ya there you go lol i couldnt draw one like that :P i would put a wire or whatever your gonna hang it on in each corner of it though so it has full support. i just used a small linked chain for mine with hooks to put it on. i can adjust it nice and even by just moving each corner up 1 link. i...

haha i was just coming back to edit my post and he already beat me to what i was gonna say :P but ya do like he said save 1 to start after harvest and report back cause id like to see the results myself :)

true but your still messing with its light schedule so that will stress it some. but not that big of a deal in my opinion for starting a seed. they should be fine about a week if that after the switch to 18/6. and i cant imagine them losing to much growth compared to how big they would be at 1...

im confused what you mean by up the box on each side. the top of each bulb should be facing to the middle of the box that way all your light will be centered right on the middle of the box where your plants should be. in the picture i made up the side view should be how it looks when your...

i highly doubt itll make that much of a difference between a little stun switching lights after growing for 2 weeks or just waiting 2 weeks to start them. in the short time they take to recover from the switch theyll prolly be as big or bigger then they would have been just starting them on...

that would work but your gonna lose prolly over a foot worth of grow space with them in splitters like that. trust me if you can make your own customizations at all youll love it in the long run. i went with the premade vanity fixtures and splitters i hate it now. next run im gonna redo it like...

thats already stretched enough to be honest i thought they were gonna be super short with no spacing between the nodes. why would you want to stretch them more? my nodes are like literally right ontop of each other

i thought i read 60 was the low point i dont remember for sure. but there should be a 15 degree difference from lights on and lights off. like mine for example box runs around 80 with lights on and 65 during lights off thats good. im not positive you might wanna do some reading but if your...

your growing 12 plants under 2.5sqft with 84 watts over 6 tube bulbs? also mine never seen nutes till around 3 weeks or older plus as you see by the early picture they didnt exactly have a perfect start im not getting all indepth with my grow checking ph and yada yada.

first picture same as as his 20 days old but topped. 2nd picture is the same plants today at 34 days. im sure the tubes are nice but not for full veg without some extra lighting. i thought people just use them to start seeds/clones for a couple weeks till they can handle more light. maybe im...

ok long overdue picture update is here. i didnt notice how well they were doing till i seen the couple pictures from right after trimming. its day 34 total and 2 days into 12/12 so vegged for 32 days if i counted right. anywho heres the pictures the first 4 are from right after i trimmed them...

ok i didnt notice the vegging part but still 100w worth of tubes aint gonna last long for 4sqft of space unless your not vegging them very long or maybe just a couple small plants. my space is just around 2.5 sqft of canopy and ive been running 312w (12x 26w bulbs) since they were 2 weeks old...

thats 4sqft your gonna wanna use about 300-400 watts depending how much of the space will have a canopy. if you want cheap go with cfl not tubes your gonna get alot more light for alot less money with cfl

a home made ballast that you can adjust would be the best thing unless you want to move the plants up and down. if you cant that that you could always do the normal vanity fixtures with splitters. i did that but i dont like it now it doesnt position the lights the way i want and takes up more...

i honestly dont see the point or reward in 3 months of electricity and work for a couple grams that would last an average smoker less then a day. but good luck should be easy :) also if its random seeds your gonna want more then 1 would suck to go through all that with 1 or 2 and get males

ok i looked on homdepot to see how big the 68w bulbs are and their just under 10 in. 6 of them would do ya real nice. i notice their only 15$ and 10$ for 42w. thats not to bad i never looked at home depot before only walmart. if you dont want that you could do 10 42w bulbs i see they have 12...

its not heat that gives them purple its the cold temp drops when lights are off

i dont know much about most of them but i was asking around for suggestions and the sleestack sounded really nice for a knock out high

its in my signature link in my journal i dont have any step by step instructions but there is a picture and a basic idea of how it was made quick edit actually the picture of the light fixture is in this link https://www.rollitup.org/cfl-growing/269739-indoor-cfl-stealth-dresser.html
