4th Week Of Flower Pics.

[saine420]

Saine I know your last few grows you used a cool tube for the rooms. How do you prefer the cool tubes to the horizontal reflectors over all?

I liked the cool tube for a closet grow over like a 3 by 3 or a 2 by 4. I found the light coverage is no where near what I get from my Sun System over my 4 by 4, I switched back and now have the cool tube for lighting elsewhere. If you had space to cover I would stick with the cool hoods, if you have a heat problem which I had last year the cool tubes do help some and sometimes every little bit counts. Also with the cool tube you can put them so close to the plants especially if its on a moving track, which could help if you don't have a lot of hight. It's one of those things that it really depends on what your working with. It did good things for me. I will get a good pic of my favorite hood. Hope this helps with your question..

Thanks for the reply Saine. I was looking at these two reflectors. The Cool Star Plus Cool Tube is 32 inches long & 25 inches wide. I 1st saw abud with these. Also the hydrofarm 8 inch ac horizontal which is about 25 inches in length. Tell me what you think.

$ wise the cool star plus run for about $170 @ bihydro.com & the 8inch hydrofarm for $111 @ hydroponics.net.

Without heat being an issue, and if you want the best spectrum of light over a larger area, I would go with the hydrofarm, if you don't need to cover a big area try the cool star. I use the Sun Systems with the 6 in. I do like the reflector on that cool star, I heard the cool tubes are really easy to make. They are used for baking bread. I have been wanting to try it. I really don't think you could go wrong with either of these. Good choices..

6th week of flower pics. The heat came on strong last week. It came time for the a/c to cool things off.

No I did not, have you? I used a lot of their products, except some rooting agents. I clone using an easy clone site so my roots are crazy, I got a few rooted now Ill take pics. In 10 days or so I get roots a foot to two feet. How does that bud blood work, I was actually thinking of using it in this grow I got now, what do you think?? I use Sensi A and B, Carboload, Sensizime, B52, Big Bud, Baricade, Mother natures tea, Hulmic, then finish with Overdrive and Final Flush.. I think thats all, hahahaha..

Hey Saine, sorry for the long delay..I have not been around..Yeah I have always used Bud Blood, but I have made alot of changes also, so I can't say for certain of it's benefits, but I can tell you this....I went back to 3 part GH nutes, after using Sensi 2 part for a few runs, and man I will never use Sensi again! GH is way better for me...Better growth, cleaner"res and medium", and 1/2 the price. I due still use Big Bud and overdrive though, I have seen good results with both of them. I am down to two different strains..Blue Hash and Ogre. So I hope to have a standard system implemented, so that I will be able to see changes as the system progresses. Your nugs are looking well developed for there age, I would have a hard time changing anything with those results! It looks like you have slight nute burn on a few plants, and N def. on others. Different strains?
