Amen to that.
How were your results from CFL's last time?
keep um nice & moist, but not drenched. You know... lol
keep it green! I will be following. Well after sitting around watching for my seeds to pop, still thinking about how to lower the temperature. I figured hey why do I have this tiny fan on the ground trying to cool down the light, so I raised it up and aimed it at the light, nothing. Then I thought, damn why am I so blind, I need to push the hot air from in between the light and the pots, so I straightened out the fan and BAM! 75-77f average. So at least that problem is solved for now, until the plants get too big, then I'll upgrade to one of the 3-4ft tower fans, they are super efficient. I have no fun pictures to post so I thought I would post what I just told you lol.And yes that is a 25 cent fan doing the job
Yeah i agree with baka you got to have ur lights running at night say from 7 to 7,it will cool things down alot, when you guys say cab is it a growing cabnit, because if so i got one going right now, u got to have a vent downlow to let cool air in and one up high to let hot air out i see you got a aircooled hood which is a plus i leave one end open to until it starts to stink up my room then i attach a carbon filter, got to keep a fan blowing right below ur lights as to push the heat away from ur plants, i hope this helpsBest 25cents ever spent these days.

and just cause you've not being growing long that doesn't mean that you don't have anything to offer on growing. what you know I may not know, and vice versa.. hell I've been growing 15 yrs total, but I know I'm sitll no ganja guru.. haha.. Subbed, good luck. I'm still super noob so I can't really add much but I will add that my first grow with HPS was not as great as I would have liked but my second has been amazing. Way better then my CFL's, good luck there's a learning curve (mostly how to control the temps) but you'll get there. Keep it up!
Lights on at nights is a very good idea
I figured I'd do mostly lst my training method, I'd do scrOG but don't want to mess with the screen when transplanting and stuff. For yield, I figured I need at least 2- 2 1/2 zips per month personally, and then enough left over for a few family members. So if I do 3 big plants in a time frame of lets say 4 months, I'd probably would set a goal for possibly a pound.

I was only getting 1/2 to 1 oz per plant with my CFL set-up. I never repotted and was bad soil and more of a learning process. It was dank just low yields. The reason I switch to HPS is for the higher yields so I can smoke comfortably myself and help my family, and the CFLs just weren't going to cut it for my skill level I was at, and what I'm still at.
I never tried supercroppping before just for because I was more comfortable with lsting.I did LST on a few of my ladies & liked the results! Have you ever did supercropping on any
Talking about yeild! That will give you 1 hell of a yeild bro!!
I'll have to try the LST/Supercrop combo then!
I'm confident you could do better man, you just didn't give yourself a chance.
Damn!! That's a huge difference.A lot of growers don't bc they think it will mess there crop up. But I'm telling ya, I've "broke" stems, taped them up & they did great! Ran side ny side grows just to see the differance & the supercropped + LST'D one produced more of a yeild then say the other! I'm talking like 2 & half to 3 zips differance!
I LST'd both the plants I have going now, and the Kush has 11 tops, and the Diesel, that I pinched a few branches because they were getting tall, was behind a little, but now has 15 tops.
