Bought 180x 5 Gallon Smart Pots today, as well as 24x 1000W Hortilux Super HPS.
They only had 60 Smart Pots on hand, the rest will be here soon.
Also picked up our new CO2 PPM monitor/controller, the PPM-2a Fuzzy Logic by C.A.P. SO SICK!
Tomorrow I will be rewiring all 24 hoods. Check this:
Every single thing running in this warehouse has to be UL Listed and compliant with city, county and
state regulations. It is a huge bitch. Originally we cut the cords of our hoods, and wired them to receptacles
in order to have our ballasts in one room and then just attached using conduit.
This was all legal until recently now we have problems.
Problem #1: the new city code states we can't have more than 25 feet of length of cord from Hood to Ballast.
Fix:Move ballasts from separate area to above the hoods and mounted through the ceiling.
Problem #2: the moment we cut the cord from the hood we nullified the UL Listing.....
Fix:Rewire every hood with original uncut power cords.
I'll be able to do all the rewiring tomorrow, and then it'll take another 2-3 days to get the ballasts mounted.

this is one hell of a setup, impressive indeed! subbed, can't wait to see what's in your future
Thanks, we should have plants in flowering next Monday, and the next 90 veggies making their appearance the same day.

Ya, they are really there so a company like Underwriters Laboratories Inc. can get paid.
I understand that for safety's sake there should be regulations, but some of the rules are
just ridiculous, like for instance, no CO2 Burners. We have to use tanks and regulators.

Wow seriously? They better start pulling all the gas furnaces in homes bc those have open flame too. Imo its just bs to cost you guys more (line their pockets) and make it more difficult to succeed. Even though they have to follow the will of the people doesn't mean they have to make it easy. Heal dragging imo....just like they want to limit shops everywhere...what the hell is wrong with a free market? Let the PEOPLE decide who stays and goes. Ok end rant lol goodluck man, the stars are aligning.
Hortilux bulbs are the shit. They are all I ever buy. If you look at the hours on them and keep track, you can make them last 5 to 8 harvest no problem. After that lumen maintance gets too low for my liking. Only thing that irritates me is they don't post PAR ratings.

Week 4 day 3 of veg
Fertilized today
6.5 mL/g coco a
6.5 mL/g coco b
5 mL/g rhizotonic
4 mL/g hygrozyme
4 mL/g cannazyme
2 mL/g equilibrium natural
EC: 1.3 pH: 6.0 Temp: 66F
I've been having some cal/mag deficiencys so i decided to try the natural equilibrium from
Humboldt Nutrients. Its a naturally chelated cal/mag. The ladies seem pretty perked afterwards.

Because they are weak when comes to PAR. The Super HPS that is. But I'll use em for now.
Next I'm going with Sunmasters.

Sup Tex,
Most have been topped. I finished my first round of pruning only a dew days ago.
This includes topping and the first of several rounds of lollipopping. They do branch
naturally as well though, so I expect some serious bushes.

All 24 lights have been rewired and hung back in to position.
When our electricians originally cut our hoods power cords they just used them at a recep box
so we were able to basically reattach the proper plug on to the hoods with the original UL listing.
The only way an inspec would catch it is because the cords are a couple feet shorter now...
Check it
Open up the top white box on your hoods power connection and this is what it looks like
The original cords to be reused
Rewired
Good as new!
The electrcians are making progress as well. Half the ballasts are relocated and there are plugs installed as well!
So far we're on schedule to have plants in on monday. I am gettin a little nervous though.
