Club 600

I had that happen with a digital ballast before. It did that a few times and then just stopped working all together. It turned out the ballast went bad in my case but I cant say for sure with yours. You definitely should try a different bulb before anything else IMO.

Just went to a friends house rigged my ballast up to his grow and it worked fine. Then I put the bulb in his grow and the fucker nearly set on fire. Guess I couldn't smell it burning at my grow because it was in an air cooled reflector hooked up to my fan.
 
Here's my 600w grow. Just put in to flower.

Glad you are back in form Doobie. I've missed your ever so coherent posts. ;) Have a good weekend my friend.


Been hard to stay away from the 600 while I sort out my computer desk and room that it's in.
A few more things to do, and I'll be back to my usual ways.
Am working on a reggae beat in Ableton Live, then will record a bass part for it, then fill it out with other stuff using Ableton Live again.
Nothing too fancy, just a solid, yet relaxed reggae groove, mon!
Will use it for my next video update of my current grow.
 
There he is! Good to hear that Doobie. I just potted up a couple of C4/CB and BSB/CB's as well as, 2 of each, as well as a Deep Blue X JTR and a Heri/Extrema I raised. They've gone into the floral room. My C4's did something that I heard you talking that one of yours did, and that is that they V'd into two main stalks naturally without topping. It happened on both of them as well as the Heri/Extrema. I have some pics and and a hypothesis as to why it's happened that I'll get up on my thread later. Wifey's back on nights and I've caught up on a lot of chores around here lately so should be a good night to chill. I do want to take a walk a little later when the sun gets down a bit more and catch some fall shots, if I remember.
 
whodat, did i read that right, you flowered space bomb in soil with no added fertilizers? that must be some seriously good mix you have there.
Yup, water only with a few doses of molasses to feed the micros in the soil.

So many people have this misconception of the benefit of molasses. It does not sweeten your buds or make them ripen. The sugars in molasses feeds the mycorhizae in your soil that breaks down nutrients resulting in more available nutrients for the plant to uptake.(in a nutshell) Molasses is beneficial throughout a grow, not just during flowering. But like Dezracer said, if you are using something else with sugars in it then probably not.
Thanks for clearing that up, I agree 100%..

Does anyone know of a good Digital PH tester to pick up? They are just as accurate, right? (as test strips)
Hanna makes some good meters, any digital meter should be much much more accurate than those strips and drops... Those strips are useless IMO and sure others can agree with me (jig?)

My 600w hps light comes on for about a minute then off again and the light it gives out is really White. Anyone any ideas on the problem there?
Iv noticed that higher quality bulbs put out more of a blue/white color when they first fire up. Im thinking its the ballast.

Just went to a friends house rigged my ballast up to his grow and it worked fine. Then I put the bulb in his grow and the fucker nearly set on fire. Guess I couldn't smell it burning at my grow because it was in an air cooled reflector hooked up to my fan.
Scary shit, Id get a refund on both the bulb and the ballast.

Howdy 6-0-0 peeps :-) Heres a quick pic of my current AK rdwc grow... I checked the grow this morning to find my canopy had collapst on itself :shock: so I installed another layer of trellis netting and got sticky lol canopy is back up and perky ;-) I'll get some better pics later.
Got some fatties :hump:

Damn G... wtf is that? Looks so good I'm tempted to get in the car and start driving, lol.

Agreed all the way around. Hanna makes good meters, they are much more accurate than drops or strips. And most of all those strips can suck a fat ph probe, lol. Not even worth the $5 they cost. (imo)
 
lol, yes I agree, "they can suck a fat ph probe" hahahaha... Not worth a penny imo.
