cheers, il give that a look

this grow failled and has now been retired. RIP

Hey all, ive had a bit of a shitey experiance with my first grow box (now retired) R.I.P. Ive got a bag seed grminating at the moment and its got a root going on. Im planning on growing it in soil but do not have the space to go full size :( I have been thinking and reading and saw a grow where...

38,270,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 lumens is that thirty-eight octillion,two-hundred-and-seventy septillion? I think I need a J lol :bigjoint:

Just wanted to say I just noticed the total thread count at 250,000 and wanted to say congrats

FAIL!!!

Hi all, ive been toying with doing a pc grow so I got a new pair of lamps. there were no measurements on the buld that I bought so I used the screw fitting to judge it. I guessed they would be about 12" long and 2" diameter. I besed this on a standard screw fitting which is about 1" diameter...

I think i just tried to roll my laptop! I bet you cant wait!

Right ho, I jumped in with both feet today and found my little guys had gotten a little warm but as they were severly stunted I transplanted them any way, ive not got too much hope for them so ive planted 2 more low ryders straight into the soil as back ups. Ive been giving some thought to...

Im getting quite gutted about my grow now. The plants have had 3 days of 19/5 on 2700K with a total of 9600 Lumens spread over 2 square feet. The growth is miserable! Ive had no progress with the bag seed :( Im considering adding one more lamp in the centre of the lighting board (with 8...

I hear you on the long neck! I think that might be from when I grew them for about 10 days without the cfl`s. Hopefully they will be getting stockier as I type. Once there is a bit more growth and they have beefed up a bit im going to transplant them to other pots, when I bdo this im going to...

well the cfl`s are 100w equivelent, im not sure what the lumen is off the top of my head and im away at the mo. any idea how many lumens is at 800W? there is 2 square feet of floor space in there.

ok so to get my growth up what do I need to do not Ive sorted the lighting? replant? already? add support. keep them on a 19/5 cycle. is there anything else that could be giving me runts? ive planted a bagseed as a control so that I can rule out the seeds if I get another runt.

Phew, I thought I was invisible lol Ill have to check out your grow. Im not so sure about them changing every day lol mine are a bit "special" (they aint too quick!) i have just checked them and one has grown about 10mm since last nights post so I think the extra light and the rest periods...

wheres the love? no one got any answers? :peace:

Hi all, As I understand it we should all have 10000lumens/foot. The lamps im thinking of are under 2" diameter and 8 of them could be run off some PC power supplies (x2?) best of all its £40 for 2 lamps!!! all they need is a reflector and they can come from a scrapyard!!! they are car xenons...

Hi all again, Right the cost of this so far £40 - Seeds £6 - 8' white conti board £2 - piece of white coated hardboard I already had the soil and floresant (I also have a snake) I had the board for the light board lying about (also the hooks, screws and chain for mounting) £15 - 8x BC light...

Hey all, I said I was going to post pics, and im a man of my word :D the file with 31 in the name is how the grow box was, 1xflouesant in the top with a reflector. the ballast is in there as a heater lol, its not too humid in there so until it is ill use that, then ill probably use a heat mat...

Well I got some bulbs and fittings and ive spent the evening doing a bit of wireing there are 8 silvania bulbs kicking out 100W equivalent each for a total of 800W equivelent. they are not rated by kelvin and I cant remember what is on the box. I may swap some bulbs for some "more blue" ones or...
