    Small grow area temp question

    Measure temps at different levels, usually you will get a higher reading at the top since heat rises. This can be offset by an extractor fan in the grow room and a fan elsewhere to move the air. Temps will drop 10 degrees. Then you will have to think about leaving the fans on when your lights...

    Help!!!!! I need some one who is an electician to help me wire my 4' 4 light t5ho

    Agree with Sunnyjim, get someone in your area that knows his stuff about electricity, not a novice. Or buy something you just plug in. CFLs are almost foolproof, use em. Smoke don't burn down...........

    197w cfl grow - 4 weeks, and things are finally looking good. (Journal)

    You've got some good genetics going here. Fan will help with temperature, although I'm finding that my plants can tolerate slightly higher temps. I've read that the trichomes are actually a sunscreen like substance to protect the plants. Although you are not there yet ( trichomes ), the heat...

    Reflective Effectiveness

    It reflects whatever you got going on. I've used it on 1st grow and for the price and time involved in putting it in place it's cheap and effective IMHO.

    Looking for light quantity input?

    Consider lining the sides with reflective mylar, it will enhance lighting.

    CFL's touching??

    I would not have them touching, one wrong move watering or handling and they can break. Use gloves when changing bulbs.

    First time Grower! My Brand new CFL lights bring out ouder

    That's a dangerous smell dude. Fire hazard. If you touch the power cord and it's hot, you've got a short circuit somewhere. Have a trusted friend that knows about electricity help you out. Power down until you figure it out.

    Harvest Report 1st Grow

    The yield was not a lot. But what I got was some of the best smoke I've ever grown. Aurora Indica. Cured over 30 days now. Sweet earthy smell when I open the jar. Only smoke a bit in a pipe. The best thing I like is not having to deal with street dealers for smoke. What a freaking relief man...

    CFL grow cab heat

    Do you mean 6'x3'x5' instead of 5"? I use 2 measurements on the temps. One is a permanent analog thermometer, the ones cooks use with the long metal stem. This is on the top with the probe inside the cabinet and clock face read out only shows outside. Then I take a reading on the bottom with a...

    Homemade Lighting Rig

    B166, nice setup. That looks heavy. Like the fan on top, good idea. Slowandsteady, yes I will paint this soon. Gotta get some primer first. Don't have a scale but, I would guess 8-10 lbs. I like that all the wiring is hidden and this unit is grounded. Going to have 8 2700K CFL's for flowering soon.

    Starting my second CFL grow and upgrading my lighting with this homemade rig. I have 3 fixed light sockets and this one will be one I can put where needed in my stealth cabinet. Can be used as vegging or flowering. Total $ is less than 20 bucks not counting Y adapters or bulbs. This is welded...
