Thats good you got a shop guy you trust cause he could help alot. Theres some shops here that are all about your cash. I drive 30 miles out of my way just because I like the business in the shop at the next town over. But yea anyways store it in the 7.0 solution. You dont have to use much just enough to keep the probe wet.
the 7.0 solution is the stuff i use to calibrate it to right?

my tent is 5ft and i use a 600w.

600w HID lights generally need 18-24 inches of space depending how well they are cooled. if you take into consideration that and your space taken up by soil pots or hydro equipment (usually around 1 foot)

that makes 3 feet of dead space you don't want to enter. :fire: burnt tops are super :sad:

200cm is 6.5 feet so you should be plenty good for most plants excluding a pure sativa.

A 600w should elminate any stretching that would occur with a insufficent amount of lumens my MH puts out 58,000 and my HPS puts out 100,000 lumens. plenty for a 100cm floor space. 600w bulbs can grow a 4ft by 4ft area well.

Hope this helps :peace:
Thanks i was kind of second guessing it because of what i was told But ill figure it all out when my sutff gets here :P

I would calibrate it every time you use it. I used to pour a little bit in the cap of the 7.0 bottle and calibrate to that then when I was finished I would dump that into the cup I stored my meter in. I wouldnt use the cup you use to store it in to calibrate too because of the cross contaminations. Calibrate to fresh 7.0

If eventually you wanna upgrade your meter oakton makes a really nice one that isnt too crazy expensive. Its a field test meter and is heavy duty and water proof and it is factory calibrated. It come with it own storage case too. Really nice I paid $70, oakton's are topshelf

I run two 600 watts in my flower room, am I in the club? :-)
Does a mule have ears?

Of course your welcome. Almost all of us run more than one 600.

Nice looking grow there too Shrubs. Props.:clap:

Well my friends hungover once again haha. Had a nice BBQ with my family last night. Got a bit late. But good times. Had a nice little bon fire and burnrd a bunch of shit that im paranoid about dumping in the trash. Mainly mylar. It holds a finger print well. And theres no real legit explanation for having or using it. So wtf burn it.

Mini cave report. I took 8 more clones of of mother purp so my 15 are in the cloner. I tossed the top cutting. It was starting to root slowly and it was mostly dead.

I have confirmed that the soft tip cuttings do indeed root alot faster. Infact cuttings with the stem being about as thick as a tooth pick seem to root in a few days verses 2 weeks or better.

So with that in mind by the time my new 8 clones root the bigger cuttings or remaing 7 will be rooted all about the same time.

As for the blue widow and lemon skunk both have sprouted in the 4" soil pots and are trying to shed the seed husk.

Will get some pics up later when the wife gets home. Gots to get some batteries for the cam. Until later peeps :peace: 1BMM.

Two of my favourite girls....yum yum Bender.

Question to all on the 600. I was checking my Blackjack and there are a zillion trichs on it. However, has anyone noticed how different plants produce slightly different shaped trichomes? The Blackjack ones look real long to me, but not thick (almost like afro Trichs, whereas the Casey and the Headband and OG trichs seems like shorter fatter one, like Army crew cut trichs...am I making sense, anyone else noticed this?

Ah well, off for my first jegoint of the day....will be thinking of you all (in a growers type of way!!! not a dirty mac sitting at the bus stop at 4 in the morning type of way...)

EDIT: Just when you thought you would stay at home, yer old parnter calls you out for a pint....it's hard being a man!!! haha.

Thanks DST.

Absolutely man. Definitely a big difference in glands' shape between different strains.

CJ tris are actually 2-3 times longer than the OG. OG's trichromes are very stocky but they are starting to get long now. CJ's trichromes been long since the start. The shorter tris you see on the CJ are new tris just starting to pop.

well i just got mine a week ago and if it stops working i get a free one, but thanks for the heads up if i do end up buyinanother one i will lookinto the one u recomended. i dont see why it always has to stay wet either.

A quick "Six Honey" update.

Bloom Day 14, Single OG under 600w. Current canopy size is 30in x 50in. Canopy thickness is 6-12in thick.





dam she is big, wheni saw the first pic i saw the pvs piping and for a min i thought it was flouro tubes for side lighting and it looked like a good idea but then i relized it was pvc pipe


i think i am gonna start to flush one of my big girls and harvest her around week 6 but only cuz i am running out of room for my 4 other plants needing to go into flower soon. also i dont want to put more plants in till the hermie is gone allthough i think the dm reverse worked i still see some sacs but no signs of any seed production:bigjoint:

Im not really too sure either but I just know your supposed to keep them wet. Something to do with the ions or something like that. Also I know never to stick your meter into plain RO water. The ions get messed up. RO water is ok once you add nutes into it because it isnt RO anymore after that.

i said i was gonna harvest the hermie plant in a week but i decided to do it today, all the info as of why i did is in my journal if you care to take a look. i think i am gonna get 3-4 oz dry wich is good for a hermie and a early girl. heres a few pics more inthe journal i will get better pics in a few days when i have a camera:weed:
 
Didn't want to come to the party empty handed, this is one of my 5 plants under a 600, and the biggest so far, but the others aren't too far behind. I got a link to my grow journal in my signature if anybody wants to come and see what's going on.

i got a problem... my girls jus finished up with week 9 but one of them looks like she is almost dead.
at first i thought it was jus the normal yellowing but every leaf has drooped and curled under, there are 4 in total in the same resivour so im thinking if it was a nute issue at least a few of them would show the symptons but its only this one... i might have to chop her down, hope not i diddnt even get a chance to flush yet. NEED SOME HELP !!!!!!!!!
