i would do 5 hps and 4 metal halide you get less lumens with the same electricity with halides. but you get a more or less complete spectrum for bushier growth and less internode spacing so not a bad way to grow.

If I were him I might consider using a few hybrid bulbs, the dual-arc bulbs.

A 1000-watt dual-arc bulb puts out 600-watts of HPS and 400-watts of MH. One here and there amongst the rest might be good.

I think he said he doesn't have money for new bulbs ..... " right now " ..............( actually ... a bulb refers to the glass bubble ... they are really called LAMPS)

i assume you mean fully dried cured bud in a sealed container no problem with that but dont remove and re-freeze often that would be undesirable.

imo around 65 to 75 is optimal humidity is important too too much and you can get mold too little and you get a bad cure and crispy dry buds.

i should have put a period after 65 to 75 my post was confusing but yeah imo 65 to 75 is a perfect temp. for growing or drying.

ok been reading and well i dont have a camera that would focus the trichs but my trichs look clear still yet my pistols are turning red/brown about 50-75% have turned is it harvest time or wait for the trichs to change ?
Ok strain is unknown bagseed from a friend is actually the end of 8 weeks of flowering its full and juicy fat pods
Also wondering if you about ready to harvest a plant should you give it 1 good water of fresh water right before chopping or wait for it to dry up a bit ?how many days from last water to harvest?
