It should work in low doses during veg.

Thanks for the input fellas, I'm going to get a nice one, just want to do some research before I pull the trigger.

So I've had several pH pens, a cheepy eBay one and a checker by Hanna. I find that I am having to constantly calibrate them. I got tired of it so I find myself using the drops. Can anyone recommend a good unit that I won't have to calibrate every day?

Maybe get some kind of shutters for your skylights

I feed my peppers a weak bloom formula. Peppers don't need much N.

I run my pump for 15 min every hour

My room is almost always over 50. Frequently over 60 and i dont have problems. I prune the low stuff and have 3 fans circulating. Your genetics will also play a large factor. Super dense indo buds tend to mold easier.

Some strains do stretch a bit more tho.

Surprisingly i havent really noticed a difference in yield between the lights being on all the time and cycling on and off. I'll get some pics when i get home.

Oh and TURN YOUR GAS OFF!! Before cutting into anything. Do a google search of plumbing gas lines too to get some more safety tips. You dont want to blow up.

Also make sure to test connections for leaks. Do this by rubbing soapy water on the connection and look for bubbles. Bubbles=leak.

I would plumb it with pvc or pex

Another possibility, a thing i did years ago, is split your room in two. Have one side run for 12hr and the other side on the other 12. I quit this setup tho because i found myself having to go into my room twice a day. One advantage of doing this with a flipbox is; you can double your power...

And i too did this initially for cooling purposes

I do something similar in my 3800w room. I have one 1000w hps on the full 12hrs. I have two hoods on each side, each one on for 3hrs then off, alternately. I have each pair of hoods hooked to one ballast, connected to a flipbox. The flip box is a relay that moves the power from one hood to the...

I drywalled my room and put in some r13 insulation. Defiantly helps control temps, but then again my room is above a garage and i really needed it insulated.

I usually top off with a bit of plain ro water

Thats 2200 watts you are using. At 12 hr a day and $.10 per kwh, thats about $2.40 a day. Even if you could save a dollar a day, it would take a long time to pay for that $500 led. And the people i know who have used leds say they arent any better watt for watt than a good ol hps. I think this...

Yep, you got it bro. I'm totally pissed about it.

Most of those additives are worthless. Marketing to get you to spend cash.
