EDIT: One more question - have you noticed any interference with your Sentinel from your electronic ballast? Was looking at ballasts last night, and if there's going to be an issue with interference, I'd almost rather go with the less efficient magnetic.

Bob, I have 3 nextgen 1000w and a sentinals timer and chhc-1 and have not noticed any problems but I also have kept the chhc-1 about 6' away from the nextgens

Integra- how high above your plants is your screen?

I keep my screen 8-12" above the plants on average and right now its about 10".

Damn Integra, sorry to hear about the natural disaster. I was just thinking to myself before I got to that part of your post, "How clean and tidy everything is in Integra's grow room, you should take note of that DST, and APPLY". It's just a mare dealing with coco/soil in small spaces...some you win some you loose. All your girls are looking just dandy though. Happy growing Integra.

Peace,

DST

It is always a good idea to keep your room as clean as you can. Small vaccumes for cars work very well especially at that pesky dirt. otherwise an small spray bottle of water and some paper towels do wonders. My room is actually dirtier after the disaster because I have water spots all over my mylarish film. I just set aside one day where I spend 10 minutes cleaning what I can, usually the day before update day, and that keeps the place pretty tidy. Thanks for your Kind word dst, and for everyones viewing pleasure, I will be doing an update on the 600w room I built for my buddy later today or tomorrow.

Friends Room Update.

About a month ago I posted pics of a 600w room I built for a buddy. I know its been a while, but finally manage to take some pics of his progress. The pics dont look as good as normal(took with my phone) since I didnt have my camera, but they turned out pretty nice. I have only been there to check on it a few times, so info is estimates.

Blue Kush Day 32
PH: Around 5.9
PPM's: 950
Rm Temp: 72F
No co2 enrichment

For comparison, here is a shot from a month ago when we first setup the room


And this is what they look like now...





They are coming along nicely. The smell is just starting to kick up, but not bad yet. At this rate, in another couple of weeks, I'll have some real bud porn for everyone. He is doing a pretty good job. The plants heath is great, he just didnt work them properly into the screen, but live and learn, I already busted his chops over it. Kinda ended up as a scrogged SOG. I will be taking pics of how mine are doing later tonight and have an update shortly after, probly late tonight. If you have any questions, I can try to answer them. Thanks for stopping by.

WOW integra, a month! thats sum growth. hope my DWC adventure goes as well as this.

Bright lights and DWC seem to be a real good mix. He fortunately had me figure everything out and educate him along the way. But done right, the results can be astonishing. Good luck to you on your setup Fuzzy.

Super healthy lookin plants man.
Nice shots too. Is that blue kush a big yielder?

Thanks. Got the nutrients dialed in pretty good so far. They keep wanting more though. I filled it with nutrients a 1050ppm yesterday afternoon and they were down to 908ppm when I took the pic today. Thinking of going for 1100ppm, but still unsure of that high. The Kush is supposed to be a medium yield I'm told, but you can't find info on it anywhere. I got my original clones from a buddy and have smoked pleanty of what he grew of it, and this stuff is great.

Sick canopy management, Integra.

Everything looks flawless, my friend - and that little "montage" of meters at the start is a great idea; like that a lot.

Thanks bob. I am almost done with the canopy. Just go this week to go, then I'll let them start growing up a bit. I thought people would like the meter strip over me just listing the stuff, that way they know its accurate and not my high ass just remembering what it was at.

VERY nice grow... One of the better ones Ive seen on RIU :)

I always tell people about the son agro 430..what a kickass bulb!!

I use one in my veg room for my bubbler grows.

They are the best bulb for the wattage. "Way better" than a regular 400 hps. Your a smart man..Keep up the good work :)

Yeah i liked that bulb a lot too. But I wasnt a fan of the 600w version. So I went with the ushio opti-red's since they have a very similar light spectrum to the agro. Thanks for stopping by.

They are and looking better every day. Cant wait till they start developing more. first 4 weeks are always the most work and the most boring to look at.
