Those are foot-candles, not lumens.

1.0 to 1.5 is a pretty big leap. I'd shoot more for increasing or decreasing it by .1 EC when you make changes. According to the feeding chart, the plant should take increasing amounts of nutrients each week. I've been steady on my concentrations for the last couple weeks so you need to use...

lol. The start of week 4 is on Monday. I have no idea how long these take to flower but I've heard the LA woman is 9-10 weeks and the TW is a slower finisher as well. The buds are starting to form really nicely. I'll get some pics up later today when I get back from the gym.

You're still caught up on the PPM but I told you to ignore it to eliminate confusion. All it has caused is confusion. Since they don't provide a conversion factor for that random PPM number at the bottom, it shouldn't mean anything to you. The EC of the solution at .5 conversion for 1000ppm...

By linked, I just meant the inline fan you hyperlinked to. I can't tell you if it will be effective for your purpose since there are way too many variables. Judging by the length of it and assuming you use a thick bed of carbon in the filter, I'm guessing it would work well.

Hey thanks for spamming 16 separate threads, including my journal with the same BS post, asshole.

Now, you are on the right track. Either an inline like that one linked or a 4" centrifugal fan will pull through a carbon filter. An axial type fan like the PC fans or booster fan don't do well with restrictions, so they won't work with the filter. Carbon filters are the most effective form...

WTF? Get out of my thread with your spam. Stealth and their shit isn't mentioned anywhere in this thread and if it were, I would tell you straight up that it is overpriced garbage. Go cry somewhere else.

Sounds pretty nasty dude. Is is that hard to walk outside or crack a window when you want to smoke? If your indoor air is killing your plants, imagine what its doing to you. What an absolutely disgusting habit...

Just subscribed to your other grow. The first few weeks are always really slow.

Hello fellow Coloradoan. Yeah, I'm in FOCO. Just graduated from CSU.

Yeah, the links aren't working. I figure it is better to have more room in the tent than not enough. I'd go with the bigger tent if you have room in your house. Check out bghydro.com for tents as well. I got a killer deal on a 5x5 Homebox XL for $150 shipped. For the fan, vortex and canfan...

Yeah, HPS and decent fan/filter all the way. Cheaping out with CFLs and cheap home depot duct fans only costs more in the end. Do it right the first time.

Looks like you are off to a good start. Here's my two cents... If that is the size tent you are set on, either light should work fine. The 600w would be more ideal. I highly recommend a cooltube or air-cooled hood in a tent to keep the temps down. As for the ventilation, invest in a good 6"...

Should do both. The meter will always do EC since TDS is derived from it. pH and EC are unrelated. pH measures free H+ or OH- ions in the solution, EC measures the conductivity of the solution. Did you read that link I posted for CL on EC/PPM info? That's a pretty good read that should...

2.8 millisiemens = 2800 microsiemens. EC is usually reported in millisiemens but the meter reads in microsiemens.

Yeah, they all kind of went from showing no sex to full blown pistils everywhere within a day or two. They are doing nicely but I am still troubled with them falling over. Went in this morning and one of the bigger plants was practically on its side. I'm going to figure it out tonight...

EC/TDS meters are the same thing. EC = Electrical Conductivity, measured in microseismens TDS = Total dissolved solids, measured in PPM, a conversion from EC

I just ignore the recommended PPM on the feeding chart especially since they don't give a conversion factor. That information is both useless and misleading. Follow the feeding chart for a gallon of water, check the EC, and then adjust the recipe to get the desired EC for all your water. The...

No worries, thread jacking is fine as long as it is somewhat relevant and doesn't involve hairy muff. That's a pretty damn good deal for a cool tubed 1000w. Do eeeet!!!
