like i said, i was skeptical too... 500 is a lot to drop on a floro system... or any system for that matter.. especially when you dont know the results.. but i was ever to grow on a smaller scale where i was to use 400w lamps i would without question trade HID for these floros anyday... and if they end up making an 8 or 10 bulb configuration i would even consider purchasing one and comparing to the 1000w hps...

yesterday was end of week 6, start of week 7... that means 14 days until the autos should be done... we'll see.. in growth terms 14 days can mean hella growth... i can only hope... the veg room is beyond packed... i need to flip and take cuttings!! lol

it still amazes me how much water these girls are drinking... now the veg girls are drinking about 10 gallons a day... so mid point of the week i have to top off the veg res.. which is fine.. just makes me wonder how much they will be drinking in full flower....

autos are looking good... colas are visable... still hard to see with a camera if i take a room pic.. but i am able to see the sea of colas forming... ill take a few pics in a day or two and throw up here...

oh wow, you started about a week or so earlier then me with the auto's.. it might be that i have one of the shortest period auto's.. its an easy ryder strain. posed 60 day from seed but ima run it to around 75. for a super lock high.

click the floro lighting section then scroll down.. make sure you check out the satellite IV floros, not the pioneer floros...

all of the royal automatics seeds are in full bloom.... looking nice and packing on trichs.. the road runners both flowered.. but look like shit... and the auto aks just never made it to flower... they are still just sitting there doing nothing...

im hoping they are done in 2 weeks.. the packs said 8 from seed... crossing my fingers...

Would that light be equal to a 400w MH/HPS?
Click to expand...
it actually preforms better than a 400w lamp....

the flowers i got from the floros compared to the 400w hps last grow had many differences... the floros were much more compact and hard... more sticky and trich covered.. and all around i was happier with them..

you can keep them closer so more plant gets more light... these do penetrate very well.. they are super high outputs...

plus the temp is much lower than an HID light...

i figured out the old school way to copy and paste... its been so long.. i forgot.. lol thanks for the reminder tho...

things are well... growing good.. going good.. and all the in between... what all up grades are you working on??

yea... them girls drink a lot of water.. its been crazy keeping up with them... but its nice to have something to do and stay busy with...




i was planning on taking some pics and posting this morning... except my camera on my phone decided to stop working.. so i have to make my way out and get a new camera.. havent decided if i am going to ebay it or what... but hopefully it wont be long until i can throw some new pics up...

but i can tell you that all the vegging girls are now at 24 to 36 inches tall... and thick as fuck... the autos are coming along great... starting to get a little orange on some of the pistils... should be done in time like i hope...

i picked up another 1000 watt and an 8 bulb HO florecent. I built 3 stinkbud units...I dont know if your familier with them or not. Im wating for ebay orders for a few more misters, some net pots, panda poly, and a recycling timer to show this week to finish the build. I decided to go areoponic, I like a lot of the small details with areo. My camera needs a charge so ill show a pic of stickbuds

i dont think there is a point where we as growers will every be happy with what we actually have going.. we may be complacent... but i think there is always going to a part of us that wants to keep changing our tweaking just to see how much more we can push our plants to do...
