I changed the water again and did another PPM reading and it said 200. I guess its working and I was really overdoing it with the nutrients. What should my PPM and water temp be?

My plant isnt looking very good. The leaves on the top are curling and even more discolored. The leaves on the bottom are wilting and falling off quickly. I changed the water and gave it some nutrients. The PPM meter is showing 2000. Im not sure if its working cause I only gave it a few cap...

Temp with light on is around 80. Temp of water is about the same. Bulb is 400w but we have been running it at 250w. The distance from the light to plant is about your hands length.

The only other thing I could think of was not enough or too much plant food. You think too much? I havent exactly been measuring how much food I give her. Ive never changed the water either, should I? I thought about changing it regularly but it didnt make sense putting the nutrients in the...

First grow. Doing hydro. She has been growing very fast but the leaves are discolored around the edges. Im not really sure what the problem is. Any ideas?

I understand what your trying to tell me. Dont buy the hype. Do my homework. Make an intelligent decision. Or I will be disappointed. Good advice. But Im still curious, have you ever used LEDs yourself? If not you cant really say anything for sure can you? We are both making assumptions based on...

I understand your skepticism. Most are crap. But I hear the good ones are superior for vegging. The debate is whether they are better for flowering. I saw a few HPS vs LED threads and some guy was reporting 1.25lb yield with HPS and 0.75lb with LEDs. But he also said that it was his first LED...

Ive been reading alot of good things about the LEDs. They dont get hot and wont burn your plants, so you can put the light closer to your plants than you can with HPS. They say the closer light source gives better light intensity and penetration for below the canopy. I wouldnt have to buy a...

Thanks for such a warm welcome. What do you guys think about these LED lights? Less power, less heat, longer life expectancy, you can change the color spectrum, its better for the environment. Everything sounds good.

I was thinking one plant because space and power requirements are a concern. Small tent with 250w bulb and ballast might keep me below an additional $100 a month to my electric bill. (Im hoping) But it does seem kinda silly to do all this and only do one plant. If I get the dark room 80 which...

Still trying to decide on my parts. Thinking about a secret jardin dark room 60 tent, hortilux bulb, and lumatek ballast. I only wanna do one plant. And the tent Im looking at measures 24x24x55. Was wondering if I could get away with a 250w bulb and ballast? Also looking for suggestions for a...
