150w HPS Club: Inspirational Resource

[frostythesnowthug]

The CFLs arent really that necessary, but will help keep them compact and bushy but if you get the 150s close enough to the plants your stretch should be minimal..

2 x 150w hps will give you something close to 30,000 lumens.

I'll post a pic later of my cabs current inhabitants, theyre bushy, produce some real nice buds and i use no supplemental CFLs for side lighting.
My cab is currently running
1x 150w hps
1x 70w hps
on 12/12 from seed
plants tend to finish out around 3ft

Here's those pix as promised..
No side lighting and they're not too stretched..
Well, all except the grapefruit, which is sativa, and has tripled its height since flowering.. every one of thse i've grown ends up alot taller than expected.

The life saver at the front is nearing the end of its natural life... i like to leave these to virtually die, or pick at 80% Amber trichs, its a knockout.. and can make you have a 'whitey' if you get heavy handed.

[SmokeyMcSmokester]

Ive never grown autoflower..Im still on my first grow..I have 4 150's 2 econolight cooltubes and 2 floralux all in one systems. Honestly tho I think Im going to get a 600W. i want some coke can sized colas, and I dont think the 150 can bring that. we'll see tho..Im about to harvest my first batch in like a weel..Just waiting for some amber trichs to pop up

if you want soda can colas go with at least 400w hps 1000w is best though for that and then trim your lower growth so that the plant concentrates on fewer colas and therefore makes them denser danker and bigger.

whats up with the sig???

O I have a scope..They wont be chopped until I get what Im looking for..I have a surplus of marijuana so Im not hurting

I want couch-lock so I'm waiting until 50% amber on my first harvest..I'll play around with the next one.
