Alright...guess ill post up my 400w experience.

Started in August, chopped in December. Had 3 in there...one is still going 'cause it's a heavy sativa. But the two that were chopped are Blueberry.







Got 600g wet, about 5 oz dry from a single 400w HPS. Used a Galaxy Electronic Ballast, Standard Spectrum bulb, and FF base nutes with Kool-Bloom additive.

0.5 g per watt in a 3x3x6.5 tent is pretty good.

This is good medicine.

Thanks...The first two pics are about Week 4...they tripled in size the next 4 weeks after that. I cut at day 60 of flowering...prolly should have let her go 65-70, but the bud is good...been dryed and cured for 2 weeks.

hey whats up. i just got my system, just set it up and have seeds in, and a few sadsad ladies that are probably gonna get culled when i need the room. actually growing 3 feminized Labella Strawberry, 2 cColombian red which is an AF, and one jackie o, or twogg havent decided yet. its my first grow indoors, super exited, i know theres a few thonkgs i need to get still, but its a start. heres some pics sand ill keep adding new ones once we get some sprouts. my prob is that i only have the 400 mh/hps, no flourecents, and only 3 cfl lights. gonna be using co2 later on, my temps are pretty high. trying lst on one of the sacrifices am i doing it right though? those plants sat inside a lakefront glass and only got am sun then got that sun as the temps averaged 58 f till i put em under the 400. any advice/ expierience especially on venting heat would be amazin.

I use an inline 6 inch for exhaust. I've heard those boosters don't move much air, but I've never tried one. My fan is overkill most the time, but that's OK because I can throttle it down ans keep quiet.

It looks like you can lower your light to me, if it is indeed up high like that.

i use a 160cfm inline from lowe's right now to pull air threw my sunspot6. it stays about 78-82 in my closet. depending on the outside temp, and whether i pull cool air from bathroom or cold air threw bathroom window. ive had my 400 watt mh 10" from my plants and no problem. most the time i just keep my light about 20" from tops of plans and dont worry about the temp climbing on me.

SSH and a bubble gum. 7 oz total from a 400watt bulb, bulbs 5th grow, haze reacted well to the old bulb. Didnt have a lot of time to do much in the last couple months, with work and two vacations!! the ssh took 12 weeks, the bubblegum 8, flowered 1 week after root. Timed it to harvest both. I recently bought two aircooled hoods, 1 new hortilux 430, and chrome dome with 2 grows old. as Im gonna go RDWC after the holidays.
4 white russian clones in flower now, rooted 2 weeks, transpalnt into 2gal and 3 gal containers (experiment). Flowered 1 week after transplant. Currently 3weeks flower, pics are 10 days flower. no pics yet- 2 s.s. ak47 seedlings 2 days out of the ground. 24 hours both seeds popped, 48 hours later, out of the soil!!!

Iso hash, 1.5 oz SSH small buds. around 4 grams. makes you look out your windows and your heart race. :leaf:
