[fabfun]

have you not seen your noob ass questions? you were there man we all were at some point.your helping possible long term friends.every1 is your brother and we should act like it.your just the brother who was being a dick at the time.we all 1/2 ass shit at some point wen were broke.not all of us have a ton of money to blow on our hobbies.lights and water are more important.I mean monthly bills by that

we all make post that next day we regret when it may just be a personal issue that is bothering someone

its how u try to act after that that shows hey i was wrong

I do have a question.im growing white widow and their 11 inches from my 400 watt hps and their showing burn signs.curled edges and such.I cant move my lights farther away.how bad will it affect the density of my buds switching to floros at this point? their 3 weeks into flower.I could tie them and pull them to the sides (they kind of need it to get light to my 2 plants in the middle of my dwc.how much taller willl they get? the tops are now bud sites and they've doubled in size so if they stay this tall ill be cool but im worried bout them growing more.

What's your ph?

Yeah that could be a ph issue, have u flushed your plants lately

What's your ph?

ph is fine.its round 6 and im using flora nutes so they buffer the ph.its only curling slightly on the very tops and only the very edges and you can feel the heat when you put your hand over them.definetly getting to warm.I can cut the top of my closet shelf and raise it but i really would like to avoid that if at all possible.no air coled hood thats my next buying purchase

u dont have a air cooled light do u
if u got limited space get a air cooled hood or cooltube i like cooltube cuz small
seen them on ebay for around 50-60 dollars
until then nothing to do but tie them down

would a 400W HPS outheat 400W(actual watts) of cfls?

 

[spencer2121]

would a 400W HPS outheat 400W(actual watts) of cfls?

Yep hps is hotter

 

[fabfun]

would a 400W HPS outheat 400W(actual watts) of cfls?

yes 400 w hps is more concentrated 400 watt of cfls is spread out due to each bulbs size

 

[spencer2121]

And I doubt hed spend,all that money on differint lights when he could just air cool his light or raise it

 

[johnman2880]

heres a few pics.id hate to switch to floros at this point.i got room to lst them back a bit

 

[buddy bud]

ok guys need some help power bill came i am using 1000 watt and 400 watt and shit load of fans and ac went up $100 should i worry about the spike ???????

 

[johnman2880]

yea even hps is hotter than mh lights.alot of people think the other way but the red spectrum is shorter wave lengths.thus hotter energy.cfls burn at half or less the temperature.i just want dense buds

i was answering the ? of which has more heat

I wouldnt worry about it.its summer their used to energy spikes this time of year.also they could give a shit less as long as you pay the bill

 

[spencer2121]

Co2 might help with making your buds dense
