looking pretty good.what size is that tent,and what are your temps like.do you use a fan for exfaust.sorry for all the questions but im wanting to do a set up like that but wasnt sure how it would run as far as temps and stuff.

The temp. inside the tent is a constant 28.5-29.5ºC.
And the RH I try to keep at 40%, (that's why I add those extra small water containers, cause otherwise it would quickly drop down to 30%.
I use a 160kub carbon filter and a 225m3 extractor fan. I also have a small circulating fan.

Spend the extra money and get a digital ballast. You can get a 600W digital ballast with cooltube from HTG for less than $250. Digitals put out more light, last much longer, do not lose efficiency over life, and bulbs last longer with them, the decision is clear... go digital.

Plus, the 600W is only $25 more than the 400W. May as well make the investment, I say.

this looks like a pretty good deal.i was gonna get the 400 hps from htg for the same price but since this one comes with the conversion bulb then i think i might get this one.

I FINALLY chopped my lady top44 and she gave me over 4oz's. The top apart of the main cola was 30g dried - she is in a special separate jar for a special occasion. The product has dried, been jarred and is curing. I pop the jars probably three times a day. They StaNk!! They will be given the proper time and hopefully give me a proper cure.

The bud pics are of a lower piece of the main cola, clipped from the main stem. This is the inside, the side against the stem. I believe I left it longer than last time, more amber colour, and more intense high. I like it. :eyesmoke:
