No nutes.

One thing that I've noticed is that on the Fifth plant the bottom fan leaves appear to be dying, should I be concerned about that? Also on the third plant there seems to be some brown spotting going on, this plant has been that way for some time. It is a random seed so I have no idea what strain...

This is about 2 weeks and 2 days in. First plant Second plant Third plant Forth plant Fifth plant Since I've had the LED in there(about 2 days now) the heat has been running at around 83-85F.

Honestly I think I've made the decision to just grow with the LED. My yield will not be as good but even I can't justify potentially burning down my own place just to grow some weed. that's a 280w(actual) LED, 115w 6" 435CFM fan running on an 18/6 cycle and a 140w 55" samsung LED TV running only...

Umm if you were listening they said in that video that a room of the appartment had been converted for growing. I'm guessing they didn't mean a closet, there's a good chance that moron had like 4-6+ 1000w lights going in that room. On a side note I'm using a magnetic ballast, not digital, so it...

Never heard of that, I've seen bit factory machines hooked to extension cords.

Contactor? I don't have a clue how many amps the 600w is but the guy above you said it is likely "6 or so" Does a 750w PS actually take a consistent 750w? If not then what is the average watts that it uses?

600w, it's a 600w HPS and a LED that draws 280w as well as a centrifugal fan which draws about 115 or so watts. Also the few other electronics in my room, computer and tv, comp is maybe 850, tv maybe 400. As I said though I'd run an extension cord for the 600w to the living room that way there'd...

No choice at this point, all I can do is try to mitigate it by doing as I said above and splitting the power use over multiple fuses. I didn't spent 1000$ just to give up now.

Already got an HPS 600w, I also just bought a 144X3w LED(280 actual watt) and getting a 100ish watt fan today. Perhaps I should try to run the HPS off the living room plug(run extension cord). So ya, with that said about 600ish watts would be coming off each of 2 fuses(living room + bedroom).

The apartment that I live in is old as shit and has an oldschool fuse box with the vintage glass fuses. My question is how do they handle high voltage use(such as a 1000w light)? Are they better for such things or far worse? I mean I know it's worse if I blow a fuse because I can't just turn it...

I think drying will be the least of my worries. I've got a friend that's experienced in it but my roomie has less knowledge of it than me from what I've seen thus far, I mean apart from smoking it). And ya.. Gonna try to keep the 600, I've got everyone telling me that I'm an idiot for shipping...

I'm rethinking it after a long talk with my hydroshop guy. If I can get the heat down enough with the 435CFM fan then I may just run both the lights in order to achieve optimum results.

Starter soil, 600w light, panda sheet, thermometer, superthrive, 105CFM muffin fan, 144X3 LED from mars LED, I am gonna either exchange or sell the 600w though and grab a couple CFL 200w lights. Also I included the 150$ 435CFM fan that I am gonna try to get today. Electric tape, tarp tape...

Idk, frankly I've already spent over 1000$ getting this going, what's an extra 150 on nutes. Maybe I'll have the opposite experience as my friend, shitty grow the first one and great grow with no nutes on the second. By the time my first grow is cropped I should have my tax refund in and use...

I've known my friend for near 20 years now. He's not one to sell me on a placebo. He tells me that on his first grow he got about an 8th to a quarter per plant. His next grow using the nutrients that he's suggested and using the same light as the first grow he got about 2-4 oz per plant. IMO...

For what it's worth I've taken some time to think about it and ask a trusted friend with some experience and I think that I am going to pick up some nutes. I need to be open minded with this even if it is going to cost me more but my friend did tell me that with nutes he got about 3-6X the yield...

Lol.. Thanks for the advice but I gotta grow bigger. Once I get a decent bank roll I'm moving to BC where things should be a bit smoother.

Thanks for your input. If you're right then you're right, shit happens. Live and learn. I am not looking for a fight. I've already bought the light and there's nothing I can do about that. Also it's 280 actual watts but supposed to act like over 400w. I can't vouch for that but I've read a...

With "help" like that who needs it anyways. I mean your form of help is "you gotta spend 1000+$$ on LEDS for them to work. Otherwise use HPS(which will burn the plants out of your small grow space)" "expect nothing and give up well the gettin's good!" ya... I'll just go with what I've got and...
