A 600w tent with a Blue Mistic and the 250w has a TimeWreck under it. Pics and stuff in my journal. Looks like I got about 2.5 oz off the Blue Mistic under the 250 so not too bad, the quality is great.
Any ideas?
Any idea what ur ph is? looks pretty minor, I wouldn't sweat it too much.

Hey ge7som3
Looks like a slight nute problem. Just some plain water will do them good.
You've got some big hitters here, verde and someguy included, and i'm hesitant to post as such. However, were still looking for a lighting upgrade, have you seriously considered T5s? Someguy mentioned that he had a 2ft 8 Bulb in a space like yours. Check this out: https://www.rollitup.org/indoor-growing/358190-led-without-leds-my-first.html. I recommend this page all too often but it does work well in small spaces, especially if you're growing for yourself.
I love tent grows, subbed and along for the ride.

the 2 ft 8 bulb works great in the GL60, I initially had a 2ft 4 bulb and promptly returned it due to lack of lumens. My eyes are pretty tuned to seeing when it's bright enough now. Start with the regular bulbs and buy the arctics on your first harvest. They are expensive and since the sunblaze fixtures already come with bulbs, miswell safe urself some dough.
Those Lights are crazyyy!! lol looks Expensive $$..? thanks for your input!

$10-$25 per bulb, depending on the bulbs you choose.
For comparison (retail values):
A middle of the road 250w HPS setup: http://www.hydrofarm.com/pb_detail.php?itemid=9871
Uses 250w, provides intense lighting, produces substantial heat, eye hortilux upgrade = $90.
A "Designer" 2ft 8 Bulb T5 HO fixture: http://www.hydrofarm.com/pb_detail.php?itemid=10659
Uses 192w, provides low intensity light distribution, produces little heat, PAR bulbs upgrade = 8*20 = $160.
It's gonna cost the same somewhere along the line... either in the bulbs or ventilation/electrical costs.
Happy Growing.

drainage trays will work fine, no need to transplant.. if your pot doesent already have holes on the bottom - then drill some..just try not to over-do it when watering..let the soil dry up a bit before you water more...the bigger the plants get- the more water they are able to consume..thing is still small though it isent necessary to give too much water..smaller plants are very easy to overwater
Alright thanks guys! Im going to take pics when the lights go off in a hr and a half so stay tuned! also i flushed them today just for safe keeping lol more water..... im going to let them dry up for awhile lol and im ordering the 250W on Friday then when that gets here im switching to Flowering! =)
Hopefully the seedling is a Beautiful woman
