Fyi - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edison_screw

...yes hps bulbs are for growing...but this bulb is not tailored to produce concentrations at specific wavelengths as a "grow" bulb is, it will work though... and as for the socket, this bulb is an e17 type socket.. So it wont fit a typical e27 socket... Both are edison screws except one is bigger.

Id still go with hps, that size area without ventilation would still manage a 400w - i had a 4x4x6 tent with no ventilation running a 600 and temps max was 90f and the biggest problem i really had was temps at lights of being too cold. A 400 in a bigger space like your would be better. And put...

ok so here it is... plant recovered in less than 24 hours, vertical growth has stopped. definately noticing increased growth outwards...

Ah ha ha ha... Ive been without since the day i started this grow... Ive got 6 weeks left +/-. Ive almost given up.

You could try to place the plants in an area where you can create an artificial horizon. If you can workout the position to acheive a 12/12 day then you may be able to bring it in a bit.... I have never tried it but i imagine it has merit. But as with previous post if you can bring it in an out...

This is a standard hps bulb. It will work. Its not specifically designed for growing... Instead for lighting. But it will work... Better to get a grow light though - they are purpose made, right spectrum/s and better results, but yes- it will work. Interesting lumen output, seems hps bulbs are...

so glad i found this thread... i love touching it, giving 'em a squeeze and a stroke.. pulling and pushing... all that fun stuff.... and now growing just got that much more frustrating!!!

so in respect of last nights effort, it didn't quite go to plan.... the main stem was a bit woody so i ended up supercropping the top third.... which ended up being 1 node below the cola... i will be going in at lights on to review the damage.... hoping to see the main cola standing up again and...

well i done it.... pics to come.

i cant beleive this.. i have made an executive decision... i shall crimp tonite... half way up the plant. i hope i dont regret this.... will post pics once its done... but they will be with the hps on... i will take before shots, during and after.... i cant beleive im gonna do this...

yeah... the hps is 30" from the coco surface... but only about 10" from the top of the plant... so i think it ok where it is for now.... but im worried that the 'stretch' is gonna push it far enough that it does become an issue... i am considering "crimping" as per advice from SxlStew, but im...

oh...and i just got a dehumidifier in the tent---- its doing ok, but it struggles to keep the humidity below 45%. - it was second hand.

The yellowing has subsided, i beleive what ever it is has been fixed. I have lowered my nutes so that my res ph is staying constant at 5.7 - i find the leaves look more...perky after a watering at this ph. I will begin with the PK/13-14 next week so im expecting some explosive development from...

Next grow... This is a personal challenge, this lady has now filled the entire floor space of the tent... So no, no more room now... I know i vegged it for 6 weeks but it had what looked like 8 weeks of growth on it when i switched.... It is a monster, i have only ever grown this strain, This...

Whoa... Check the last post on page 1 of this thread.... I added two more photo's.... Before you all had a go at me, refer the first photo and you will see the plant in normal light. As for GOD HERE, dude... I know what calmag is... And i know what the deficiencies look like... I dont have a n...

here is a pic from today... taken just as hps came on first pic was normal light and by the second the hps had warmed up... enjoy, advice welcome.

really interested if anyone has a diagnosis for the op on this...

fair enough... i was wrong.... but the whole idea of feminised seeds implies some level of predetermination as a cause for interference... otherwise it would always be a lottery... given the use of the colloidial silver there is without a doubt male and female genetics in every seed.... so yes...
