easy all. on round two. four clonse in veg now. right my 1st grow went ok. got tasty bud but less then i hoped for. also buds was very light in weight. i mean i got a 6 gram bud that is way bigger then my hand.buds not dense enough for my liking also took 114 days to do in flower and seemed like could do with couple eeks more temps was fine tho. u think i over feed the girls that y had these probs? i feed biobizz on every watering and think should done few waterings using just water. or could it been light in weight and airy buds due to not enough light?
how many plants a 250 w hps do? used 150 w before but thinking upping the watts

id only be puttin 2x plants under a 250 bro max and id train the fuck out of em to get as many strong branches as i could so id have somethin between the lines of a scrog removin every branch that did nt make it to canopy level or u could do 10x clones seeds and switch to 12/12 straight away personal prefrence would b 12/12 straight away as they are easy to manage, quicker production, light penertration will b harder under worked under bushes, better quility bud imo!!

250w = 2plants 3 at a absolute max imo ... im using a 250w now mate check out my journal , its below this post in my signature.
150w is only really good enough to keep a mother under imo ....

Morning guys. How is everyone this morning. Im going to try and squeeze a grow in before xmas. The only way I can think of doing it, is a 12/12 from seed. Think Im going to do the AK48 from Nirvana again(or try Space from World of seeds). Going back to basics. No hydro system and Im going to be using coco. Im going to stick with Ionic nutes. Got 6x600w for this run. Fingers crossed this will make up for recent disasters.lol

QQ do 300w + cfl need ballast or do they still just plug in, also what are they like for generating heat ?
Click to expand...
no they dont just a straight to the plug job. and they do put out a fair bit of heat. i just gor a 200w and its nice n toasty in the cupboard. ideal going into winter, cuts and veg take a fucking age in cold weather.

how big is your space? just guessing but if you have space for a 400 and can vent it properly i'd get a 600. its near double the lumen output for only half the watts more

400= 55000L
600=95000L

the real difference will be in your end weight
