    Carbonated water has no sodium added. The lumens for a 50watt HPS is 4000. Ideal lumens per square foot is 3000. A direct sign of lighting issues are extended nodes. My plants have an inch or less. I plan on increasing the lighting by at least double for flowering.

    Thanks for bringing that to light. To be totally honest, it is the only name I trust. It worked for me once, and it seems to be working now. I just hear so many folks telling evenyone it's crap that I had to get my 2 cents in. And I'm seeing lots of new grows struggling that it's breaking my...

    Thanks for the input blackdog. I posted the brocher on the lamp further back. Says it takes 50, 70, 125, or 150 HPS. But if I spend the extra $15 on a new lamp rather then replace the bulb, I'll have more dispursment for those lower buds. hmm

    Actually, I started out looking at cfl's. They work great in places where heat is an issue. But pound for pound HPS is best.

    I'm feeling very good about this grow so far. I transplanted and watered thoroughly with filtered water over a week ago and left them alone. I don't keep up with ph, temp, humidity, or even air flow! I got them in an open area so I'm guessing they are getting all the CO2 and O2 they need. I...

    Thanks for looking out! I'll read up on it. I know MG(along with other ferts)have a history of root lock. That's why I'm not going to add any to the soil and flush when I water. I think foliar feeding with carbonated water is the best thing for flowering plants. I could be wrong, but we will see...

    This is the lamp I am using. If two other posts with links pop up, they all lead to this. Not sure why the others didn't post.

    I'm using a 50watt bulb in 150watt light system. Won't get the 150watt replacement till I go 12/12. I might just spend an extra $35 on another lamp. This will help on the light dispursment. Lets see how many girls I have if any.
