    Making your own T5 fixture?

    I have thought about how this can be done cheaply and would love to know what kind of progress you make here. I am severely lacking in the electronics knowledge area but from basic operation I assume you have to have a ballast that meets the wattage of the lightbulb(s)? Im not sure how it...

    Fuzz's first grow - T5 + CFL - Medical Cabinet grow, DWC, Bagseed

    Thanks for input. I have vegged for so long cause was stuck with CFL + T5. Now that I have 400w im definately looking forward to flowering here. I have trimmed her in a way to hopefully get 8 top colas and a bunch of lower colas as well. Not even counting the clones I have propagating. The...

    Fuzz's first grow - T5 + CFL - Medical Cabinet grow, DWC, Bagseed

    So update and guess what... Fuzz just stepped it up a notch. Traded some crap I had laying around for a 400w switchable light. Have a metal hallide bulb that is a little bit old so that will need replacing but so far my baby is loving it! I really wanted to give the lower growth a chance to...

    Overwatering!!! explain hydro then!!

    Hydroponics is different cause you have to add air to the water so that the plant doesn't drown. That is what airpump + airstone does. If soil turns into bog oxygen doesnt breath and cant get to roots. Roots drown Feel free to correct if wrong :)

    Fuzz's first grow - T5 + CFL - Medical Cabinet grow, DWC, Bagseed

    I need to know sex! I took some clones and made a makeshift aquarium/hydroton bog-dwc with airstone... it is keeping them all alive and I can check the roots easily this way. One of the clones leaftips are yellowing and I see white things starting to bulge out of bottom. I have been taking a few...

    Anybody ever use these?

    I saw those circular T5's at Osh and was wondering how to wire them up because they were super cheap 6500k bulbs. They either had 2 or 4 pinss. edit: I saw these ones and i thought they would be awesome too http://www.1000bulbs.com/27-Watt-4-Pin-GX10q4-Base-Compact-Fluorescent-Light-Bulbs/38764/

    DR80 Set up

    Hey, is the inside of the tent reflective? It looks like you have around total 7500 lumens with those two fixtures. I think if you want to put a HID lamp inside that you definately are going to need provide intake air and exhaust. I have seen some tents that have spots where you can put fans...

    question on lights

    T5 lights are what im using, they work amazing for vegging. Green leafy growth, although I understand that T5 have less "light intensity" so therefore will induce stretching on lower leaves. I definately see lower leaves streching on my plant. Gotta make sure the bulbs are 6500k for vegging...

    Fuzz's first grow - T5 + CFL - Medical Cabinet grow, DWC, Bagseed

    I really should've wrote down when I germinated the seed, because now I am clueless how old it is! Anyways some changes have happened to this grow, decided the tiny cabinet I was growing in was very restrictive to side growth so I ditched it and converted my closet into a two tier shelf of...

    Fuzz's first grow - T5 + CFL - Medical Cabinet grow, DWC, Bagseed

    Thanks, I will definately look into that when I get some scrilla. So I was being lazy and didn't check the plant and it grew into the 105w which basically dried out the crown and I just snipped the crown because it was dead. This could be really bad because I was hoping to make the plant tall...

    Fuzz's first grow - T5 + CFL - Medical Cabinet grow, DWC, Bagseed

    Thanks for the response, I am using Botanicare's Pure Blend Pro Grow, Pro Bloom, as well as Liquid Karma. I read on the packaging that both the Pro Grow and Pro Bloom have 1% Calcium and 0.5% Magnesium. Nitrogen on the vegging formula is at 3%. I mix 30ml of solution with 4 liters of water and...
