    Adding T5's to a 400w HID - Worth it? Input needed

    All, Just yesterday put 4x14w 3100k T5 flouros (2' or 601cm) to accompany my 400w CMH. I am one month into flower and they are progressing nicely. The T5's are ~3-5" from the tops (I LST'd to keep the canopy as even as possible) and the CMH is ~9" away from the tops. I have the 400w CMH in the...

    How're they doing + where they've been = When should they go to 12/12

    Well thanks, I did run out of soil so I need to go buy another bag... So they won't be transplanted quite yet. I will try to transplant tomorrow or the next day, continue to veg for a week longer until I see well established growth, then I will turn the timer to 12/12. How's that sound...

    How're they doing + where they've been = When should they go to 12/12

    Some more info. The front (bottom) two pots are 1gal and the back ones are are in 2.5gal. I have 5gal grow bags that I was planning on going to for flowering, but I have some more 2.5 gals I can upgrade the 1gals to. If I veg for another 2 weeks and do a 10 week flower period would 2.5 gals...

    How're they doing + where they've been = When should they go to 12/12

    Hey, I popped these beans the 3rd January 2011. That makes them 7 weeks old now. They got really badly infected with something that caused all the plants to display wilting signs and slowly die (yellow, dry, crumble, fall off) from the bottom up and for about 2 weeks they didn't grow. I...

    Strain differentiation through seed phenotypes

    Here are some pics and some rationale. Blueberry: Twisted first couple leaf sets (common to blueberry), completely purple stem and underside of leaves. Northern Lights: Very short/bushy/fatter leaves. Looks like a total Indica with ZERO purple anywhere. Unknown: These three all have...

    Strain differentiation through seed phenotypes

    I ordered the 20pack of mixed seeds from peakseedsbc, they've got some very good looking strains. 24 seeds arrived promptly 3 weeks after order. I managed to sift the seeds by the look of the seed. They were distinctly different. Some were a larger brown with black spots and lines and...

    How to lower output of hid lighting???

    I know you can overdrive a HPS ballast/lamp by placing another capacitor in series with the ballast, but I don't know about making it less powerful.

    I mailed my $40 for a mixed pack Nov 14th and when I hushmailed MJ asking him about shipping, he said he sent it Nov 24th. Received my twenty seeds and four extras 3 weeks later exactly. All look A-OK. Have not propagated any.

    Ordered a Mixed from PeakseedsBC - Quick Question!?

    Very good explanation. Thanks a lot. I could tell the seeds really into 3 main groups that they were DEFINITELY different. I popped 4 total, 2 from the most numerous group. During the coming months, I will try to tell if the four different plants display different phenotypes

    38"W(by)18"L(by)63"(H) - How many plants?

    3x5gal seems like it would be the best fit for my needs.. Thanks! With such small space, I will likely not move into 5gals until flowering, as I am planning on starting 5 seeds to get hopefully 3 females. Keeping them in 2.5gals until they sex, then tossing the dudes and repotting the gals...

    Ordered a Mixed from PeakseedsBC - Quick Question!?

    yeah but some of them are remarkably different and similar and there are multiples of the similar looking seeds. Near to a T copies. Different colors and shapes, and groups of each. So plant A could have seed style X, Y, and Z randomly(different color/shape). Instead of plant A having Z seeds...

    Tips pls: New veg box design

    I would make it taller. closer to 4' at the absolute smallest, because think of the 5" at least taken up by the pots at the bottom, and then the distance taken up by the lights take from the top, as well as distance till being burned from the bulb and that gives you like 20" plants... gonna be...
