Give them as much HPS lighting as possible while still maintaining comfortable temperatures. That is the main thing. Some people think I'm crazy for having two 1000 watt HPS lights in my tent, but I have a great exhaust system that keeps my temperatures around 78 degrees. This is a MUST if you want to have a big yield. :weed:

NOTE WELL TAKEN!! :clap: thnx alot bro rite now i have them under 80 watts of florescents i do have two 250 watt HPS lights but they are not up yet i am going to put them up this saturday:-P! i cant wait to see what happens to them then. is there n e new project ur working on now? i love reading ur journals man and looking up to them

Hell yeah man, I would love to see that! I have a very good friend that lives in Las Vegas but he is too paranoid to grow because Nevada is a zero tolerance state which sucks.

Actually Nevada is a state that provides for medical marijuana...

One of the few...

You're right, but I meant that if you weren't medical than the penalties are very harsh in Nevada. I know it is easy as pie to get a medical card in Cali, but I have no clue about anywhere else.

The setup was a tube inside of a tube, the inner tube held the 100x horilux (or whatever it was) and inbetween the two tubes was a 1 inch gap or so......with cold ewater constantly flowing trough it.....now he said it does dampen the light slightly, but in relativity, hes got 2 x 1000w so hes got plenty of light, and no heat :D

He also said he helped his buddy who was a maintenance person for an apartment complex set up his grow room, and he had a water cooled one as well, but the reservoir was he community pool. I laughed when he told me the pool was around 90 degrees in the winter.....hahahaha
That is hilarious, yet brilliant at the same time. That would be awesome to have a set up like that. In actuality you would lower your costs in electricity since you wouldn't have to run intake and/or exhaust fans. Seems rather interesting and I would love to see pics of a setup like this.
