you are lucky to get anything from that redneck, i would have thought that with the days getting longer it would reveg.

maybe that could have something to do with the poor production.

i'm presuming you are in the northern hemisphere right?, new set up looks cool, i'm gonna step my game up and try a 1k bulb grow soon.

loling at the whitedawg, that is the thickest stem i have ever seen on a plant that small, she is gonna be a thirsty mofo you know.

It could also be that you are growing it outdoors in a green house. It may not be able to grow to its full potential due to light restrictions? Don't know I haven't grown outside since I was like 16! LOL

Yeah as long as she is close to done it doesn't make much sense letting her go. Also it is a waist of time on a plant that you aren't happy with! Just chop her ass down and smoke her up.

I love it, the dude at the hydro store said this refelector and the raptor are the two refelctors that everyone comes in and buys.

For best cooling use mine - since its a smooth tube air flow is great. click here- melonhead

for a 4x4 area use the raptor b/c its huge and suppose to be best on market for 1000watt . click here - for raptor im buying 2 of the raptors reflectiors as soon as i expand and get 2 1000watt
Am only on post 24 of this thread, but was wondering if you like the "raptor" better than the "bigfoot" and why???

Well at the moment im using the melon head and love it, seems my 1000watt only raises a few degrees with the smooth bore tube with out haveing any corners for the air to catch. The raptor is design the same way but are a very big refeltor and u need the room for them for sure. If u have the money go with the raptor the bigfoot i have no clue but i wouldnt get it.

this is all IMO..

I apreciate everyones opinion!!! Been lurking and reading alot of journals, and was debating between the raptor and the bigfoot once my first harvest comes in..... Going 1000w, light mover, and 8" cooling.... the thing that got me on the bigfoot was the 8' x 8' that they claim to cover..... The old man at the feed and seed, said he'd go with the bigfoot, same price, 8" versus 6", plus the chains that hold the glass, should u need to clean or change bulbs...... Dont mean to hijack, but any help would be appreciated!!!

Ya like I said no clue about the big foot, but the owner of the hydro store sells the shit out of the raptors if ur sealed up u don't need to clean the inside at all until it's tome to change the bulb, and even that's not all the time. It's not that difficult either to undo a 6 in clamp and replace and clean maybe 5 min. My setup I clean a little bit since I don't have a filter yet, but even than 5 min before lights come. On I clean it. No worries about asking questions in here I'm here to help with the little knowledge I have lol

Hey HP I was cleaning out some used pots with roots in them and I was cleaning out my bubba pots and I will let you know now that the bubbas need at least a 7 gal pot to grow in! I have a bubba in a 5 gal right now and the one next to it in a 7 is considerably different in size! So my lil advice to you is go with a 7 on the bubba cus they are a very rooty "if thats a word" lol plant.
