White widow autos, my 1st indoor grow in a very long time. I think im seeing mostly cloudy with some clear and a few amber. Trying to get used to this microscope gizmo.....

Even though they’re only about 1/2 as bright?

Yeah the cabinet thing sucks.theyre there because it gets too cold during lights off time in my grow space. Soon my others will be chopped down and I’ll put them under the 600w mh bulb. If I can get a heater in there would I be better off putting them in with the flowering plants(autos) that...

I have a 2 bulb fixture I’m using for my seedlings. They’re almost a week old and will be under this light for at least another week. The current bulb are cfl 2700k with 1650 lumens. I also have some cfl 6500k with only 800 lumens…which would be better? Thanks! Btw, other than stretching when I...

Lol, headed up right now to get what I can. Thanks guys!

Thanks Bob, I think I can squeeze out a few more inches

Hey all! I’m growing 4 wwa’s under a 600w hps light with air cooled reflector. they are deep in flower and I’ve been wondering if my light isn’t too close. The light is about 10” from the tallest plant and im kinda out of room to move it up. Ive seen some charts that say 14-16” but I’m not sure...

Point taken..

It was my understanding to only use the superlumens when your bulb is at the end of its useful life...

watch your heat. I started with a 250 now at 600 and it created enough heat issues that I had to make some changes in the room. i bought the vivosun 600 with digital ballast

Ok, I just have the 1 ballast. Maybe I’ll leave the mh in for a few more days then switch it up. Thanks!

Point taken. I couldn’t really lst them 2 weeks ago but now here I am. What about the timing of switching from mh to hps?

I have 4 ww autos growing in ffof. They are under a 600w mh lamp. I’ve had a lot of problems up till now and they are a bit stunted. The room is set up way better now. My plan was to try some lst for the 1st time but now this morning I noticed a couple white pistals on 2 of the plants. They are...

That’s my plan to a tee..when I decided to come indoors and was looking at lighting I got a lot of mixed opinions on led as far as brand,efficiency,price etc.. I got into a decent hid setup for a low price. I’d like to get 2 or 3 grows in to build confidence and then think about different...

ive Been reading quite a bit here lately and I love your blunt no nonsense responses to rookie questions. For the record I doubled down on the mag at 2tps/gallon tonite

Disappointed in which? And why? Just trying to learn here

Not really. The 150w hps was free. Then I got a sweet deal on the Vivosun 600w with digital ballast. I’ll most likely switch to led after a grow or 2

Oh I’m sure I worry too much. I have the light about 20” now. These girls are for sure underdeveloped for the age (about 30 days) so I’m pouring my heart out to get them what they need.i had better luck when I was a teenager growing under fluorescent.. lol.. now I’m spending the coin to do it...

That’s pretty similar, interesting... my girls are white widow af from seed king. I don’t understand how a plant under a 1000w mh can be light deficient. I kinda feel like I have crappy genetics but I’m probably just looking for excuses.

I did...I didn’t know any better at the time.i was worried that I was gonna shock the shit outta them with the 150w hps to 600w mh switch so I thought I would ramp it up slowly. I also had the light too high (like 30”) for a good part of that time. The light is now at its full 600w and my newly...
