I have a question about PH/PPM/Temp meters. I've been shopping for meters and I've found that they range from really expensive to just kind of expensive. I built my own DIY DWC system. Actually 2 of them and I know I need to keep up with my PH and PPM. Typically, I just use the traditional PH...

It looks like they are the larger T12 bulbs. Does this make a difference?

Are these bulbs available at a Walmart or Home Depot? Also, should they work in my standard flouro shop light? If so, I'm stoked I've already invested a small fortune I just want to see if I can save a few cents toward the end.

I have a veg room running 2 x 400w MH and a flowering room that I just built running 2 x 600w HPS. I'm wanting to create an area for seedlings and clones and I'm wondering if a simple flouro light will work. I have 4ft. light that holds two bulbs. Right now it has 2 25w Cool White bulbs. Is...

In all reality Victor is correct it would be more of a 5'x5' area that needs to be lit. So opinions please I have the following options for the area. I want to utilize the space as best as possible. 1 x 1000w 2 x 600w 4 x 400w I need to take heat into consideration as well as light. What...

I posted this in the newbie section, but it may be better suited for grow room setup. I'm in the process of building a flowering room in my grow space. My current space is 11'x16', but I need to separate a out a flowering room. Unfortunately, there are only so many ways it can be setup due to...

I'm in the process of building a flowering room in my grow space. My current space is 11'x16', but I need to seperate a out a flowering room. Unfortunately, there are only so many ways it can be setup due to power, plumbing, duct work, etc. So I've worked out a space of about 7'x7' or 49 sq...

Are you lighting one tub (unit) or multiple with 400w?

I've built a DIY Bubbleponic system and I have some questions about effective lighting for the system. I purchased and 30 gallon Rubbermaid container from Wallmart (actually it's some other brand but I can't remember what it's called at the moment). I have 6 pods in the container that are each...

Alright, thanks for the help. One more question about lighting. Like I said I currently have two lights 400w HPS and 400w MH. It sounds like I need to introduce a flouro to the mix. I have some standard flourescent 4' hanging lamps at my house presently. However, I imagine I probably need...

No, they actually started a little more than a week before Valentine's Day. At least that's when they were put in the dirt. I had my first two sprout on Valentine's Day. I also wouldn't necessarily say they are bushy. They have the original two sprout leaves. A large first set of leaves, a...

I have a few questions about starting seeds. I have ordered 10 and due to the price I want to make sure I am as effective as possible with them. I've started a few with some bag seed and I'm thinking the same principle will apply, but I want to verify that I am truly doing this the right way...

Thanks for the input. To be honest this is a first grow and I'm kind of experimenting while I wait on my seeds to arrive. I have 10 WW feminized on the way. The seeds I'm growing presently are in soil. I'm not really sure they were just some bag seed. Decent stuff but really just to kind of test...

I have about 5 plants started under a 400watt MH lamp. The first started on Valentine's Day so it's been about 1 week now. They seem to be getting good size on the leaves, but the stems aren't really growing. They look more like bushes than plants. I had the light about 20 inches above the...
