Just a little update. Started flower 4 days ago, I think everything looks good so far. Let me know what you think. I'm hoping to see its sex soon.

Can any of you experts tell if its a she yet?
Not to be a bearer of bad news but 1. its too early to tell 2. if i had to say sex right now it looks male.But give it a couple more days to see. what im seeing could just be new growth.

I am mentally prepared for bad news, it's my first grow after all, so I figure things won't turn out as expected. Even if it does turn out to be male, I think I'm going to finish the grow so that I can learn from it.

Well like i said its still a bit early and what im seeing could just be new growth so it could be a female.I got my fingers crossed for ya G.
 
Thanks for the info fabfun. I don't have a voltage meter so I'll prolly use your idea and take the bulb up to the shop and see if they'll test it for me.

Just lick your fingers, use them as leads and guess the voltage. I think I learned that on Down Periscope though. Might wait for second opinion on that.
 
Try practicing Lsting or a scrog. this way next time you can get more bud and also keep your plant down in height.
 
u forgot to tell him to wear the correct safety clothing
make sure u wear a DEPENDS adult diaper wouldnt want u to slip on crap and get hurt

Kind of a weird thing with the lighting system. Just for shits and giggles I wanted to see what would happen if I put the HPS bulb in while the light was still on the MH setting. It worked! But I turned it off after a few minutes because I was worried that I could mess up the the whole thing. Have any of you heard of this, and can I ruin my lighting system if I run HPS bulb on the MH setting? Thanks for all the help so far guys. I have some AF's coming from Attitude and Dr. Chronic so I'm excited to get those going.
 
So check this out. Remember how I was having problems with my lights not working on the Sodium setting. I got in contact with the people at Greentrees, where I bought the system from. Well, after getting my account noted so that I could open it up without voiding the warranty, I noticed that something was unhooked! Lol so I took some pictures and sent them to the guy and he confirmed it for me. Viola! It works!

Now here's the thing, I noticed that when I had the cover off that it has a 400W ballast in it. The lighting system is advertised as 250Watts switchable, but I was wondering if I could run 400W MH and HPS bulbs in it? Any of you guys know? Here are some pics of what I'm looking at.

well i see the 400 watt ignitor
now look at the ballast the thing behind the ignitor with the copper looking coils should be a label on it somewhere may have to take out to see but if that says 400 w u r good to go
and to think everyone wanted u to just go buy a new one when this one just needed trouble shooting great work man

Thanks man. I'll take a look at that other piece too. It would be awesome if I could run 400W stuff in this thing.
 
hey man glad to try to be some help did u get that voltage off ballast yet
i think that is interesting they got a 400 w ignitor
and repped back for that find
and be careful with capacitor the can looking thing and the ign. they store power and if u dont discharge u can get a zap
use a screw driver with out touching metal and bridge 2 connections to discharge if u ever have to handle one
