fucking nice bushes mate.
is that an mh bulb in there?, best thing to try and avoid stretch would be to carry on using it until you got proper flowers going then switch to hps. keep her as close as possible without burning them

Cheers guys. To be honest I have used a son t hps bulb all the way through so that will probably add insult to injury on whats an already stretchy strain (70% sativa). I think I'm going to get an mh bulb next time to try it out. Hopefully (there it is again) my ballast can run a mh bulb. I will have to check

Bang on. I thought it had calcium added. For calcium cheap antacid tablets or egg shells crushed to powder. Probably less effort to get calmag lol

hi I had a powercut yesterday night only for a couple of mins but when I turned the mh light on it took ages then went out a couple of hours later,the inside sqare glows and it has electric pulsing through it but it doesn't fully turn on anymore,i have now replaced the bulb with a 600w hps until I get a mh bulb,will this be ok for vegging until I get the mh,how could a powercut make a bulb blow/brake? or was it an error on my part as id like to know so it doesn't happen again because the mh bulbs are expensive and I don't fancy buying one every week.

ive just ordered another mh bulb but its soo frustrating as the mh bulbs are expensive, I tried to cantact the seller to see if he could sell me another on discount or something as I have only used it for a week,but I don't think he will be able to help because there wasn't a fault in the bulb until the powercut,this is the first power cut ive had in over 5 years lol.thanks for your replies

well it was at 10 inches there dude. dont really want it any closer than that. the pistils are starting to gather now though so i would of thought it will start slowing down now.

gaffer pulled a blinder today. I'd just gotten into the office and the fire alarm went off. me being the fire officer ( I know lol ) I ordered everyone out. then I smelled the burnt toast smell n thought ah don't bother lads i said someone down the halls just burnt some toast. turns out it was the gaffer in the other room. he'd mixed the dial numbers up on the toaster and set it away on just next to maximum setting. black poptart, plumes of smoke. 60 odd folks stood out in the snow in the car park. fire brigade the lot. it's a council run building so the place is hard lined to the fire service. can't just knock the alarm off. if it happens again £500 fine.
man's a disaster on 2 legs. a hilarious one at that.
