sorry to be a bore, but back on the topic of the sunpulse splitter. will it just run each lamp at a lower wattage? say 500w? or do the lamps perform just as well as if they were on a 600w ballast? also i found a video by monstergardens where they use the splitter with different bulbs and a electronic ballast to boot. but the sunpulse website " says" do not use other lamps besides theirs and only use a magnetic ballast. marketing ploy? that link you gave me for the magnetic ballast is the cheapest one ive come across. big thanx for that.
I have no idea about how it works out, if it's only 500 and 500 or what, but I do know that it would be perfect for me. I basically want to spread my light out and have two sources, but not have to pay more electricity and buy another ballast. My guess is that it does run them at a lower wattage. I would agree that it only works with a magnetic ballast but the whole thing about them only working with their bulbs I think is bullshit. Maybe not though, lol. Would suck to buy two fancy ass 600 bulbs only to have them burn out because of the lower wattage.

I love that website the ballast was listed on. I've bought a lot of my gear from them.

Thanks stinkbudd1 :-)
It's actually just a 48" x 48" x 60" tall grow box, but just right for my needs until my wife & I get into a house some day.

Attached are a few pics, relating to a previous post of mine about spraying with neem oil, of a cardboard shield I made to hang from the frame of my grow box's ceiling so I can spray with lights on without worry of going ka-blooey.
I just let it hang in place until the plants below it are dry, or mostly dry, then I remove it and have no problems with burn spots.







Peace!

Hey all, how's it going this weekend so far? Wifey's gone to work for a 12 hr and I'm enjoying my night with my own personal ganja. Now how does it get any better than that?? Now don't get me wrong guys, I love my wife to death, but a Friday night alone with a bong and good herb is kinda like a Geeks night out.

So Doobie and Bobo, things are really rocking on your ends. Are you chopping soon Bobo, they look ready!? Love that leaf Doobie. I have a pic of an earlier male Jack Hammer with big ass green leaves like that. Also, I've confirmed 2 of 5 females from my Afghani run and one of the females has a leaf structure like that and I'm pretty happy about that trait. I first saw it on one of DST's girls, pretty sure it was his Romulan. Anyway, just loved it, so I have to pick a male Extrema and male Afghani to mate her with. Also out of the 5, she was the shortest with the best structure, so Winning!

Nice, Duchie! A good Fri night along with the bings and the manicured girls is always great ;)

Dude, I don't know what to do. Westy was sayin' his bbc went 9.5 weeks. I thought I had a pretty sativa lookin' pheno, so I was thinking about letting them go a little longer, and maybe getting another round of water with clearing agent in there. I've only 'flushed' them once, but would really like to have another flush (and a better one) in there to secure some better flavor. Thoughts?

Well, when it comes to giving advice in the finishing dept, I haven't heard that notch yet and wouldn't want anything to do with influencing that decision. I'm starting to wonder if my Jack Hammers are really gonna go 13 or more but I'm sure they will. About the flushing, I have the two Widows and The Purp finishing up but I'm holding back the sheers, with much effort, for a little while more, so I'm thinking I'm gonna give them another good flush, but with really cold water. Then I'm thinking of putting my Purp in the shed overnight. We've been having night temps just above 0 (32) which is similar to fall temps. Just want to try it and see what happens.

It's always such a hard call... I'm in for another good flush, I think. I want to get as much shit out as I can. How long you reckon you'd wait to chop them after a final big flush like that? couple days?

Good one, Marlowe lol I fucking clicked on the thing, too ffs lol

Well Bobo, looking closer at your pics, shots 7 and 8 show more clear trichs than the others, and I really don't see any amber, so if it were me I would flush the hell out of it, let it dry up real good and call it then. I'm betting your chopping then. IMO.

Thanks man! That's kinda what I was feeling as well. Those buds are all the colas, and admittedly the lower branches could stand to fill out a bit more, too, I think.

I'm with ya man, I want to chop something but I'm biting the bullet.

I want to post this before I forget. It's for anyone interested but it stems from the conversation about music I was having with Heads Up so it's directed at him. So I was listening to Elvis Costello today and this song came up. I conquer wholeheartedly with what he is relaying here. There is a great documentary out there, which I never saw the ending to, called something like The Death of FM radio, I'll try to nail that down for you, that talks about the change to top 40. Basically it goes like this. A couple guys sitting in a diner notice that these people will pay to listen to a box that plays the same 40 songs all day long. These asshole brought birth to the scumsucking, asskissing Program Director and the beginning of the end.
