100 amp service, electric heat, electric stove and dryer, putting in a heat pump.. putting in 200 amp service one of these years. it's normal for the individual breakers to add up to more then the main breaker, that's fine to do.

you'll probably laugh then too..

read read read. a lot of good information out there on the inter web. TDS stands for total devolved solids. the amount of nutrients in the water. the number is in ppm, parts per million. to little and you'll starve the plants. to much and you'll lock out some nutes and the roots wont absorb them...

you can grow with cfl's. just use 2 or 3 100 watt equivalent bulbs per plant. just add up the lumens. you need at least 6000 lumen per plant. a 100 watt cfl has 1600 lumen, so 3 of them over one plant gives you 4800 lumen. you wont grow pro buds with it, but it will work! I got 2oz from a few...

any idea what caused it? I guess I should make a smoke detector a top priority for my room.

have you ever used a hps? it's amazing how much light you get with one. you need a lot of cfl's to get the same amount of light. I think cfl's are good for up to 3 plants. more then that, and you will benefit from having an hid light. I still use cfl's. they give extra light to the sides and...

depends on the distance the cable will be going. what I meant was, 60 amps 220 going to the building may be overkill, but it's what I would do. plenty of room to expand. or if needed, run heaters or air conditioners too.

obama says no more pet projects. well wtf is this crap? is the military in a contest with nasa to spend more money then the other? $9.5 million dollars to research and develop a heat sink! are they reinventing the wheel or is it nuclear powered...

I've only heard a little about bloom enhancers. I'd love to try them some time, but they can be a little pricey. for my day to day growing, I use general hydroponics floramicro and florabloom in the lucas formula, and add vitamin B1 to help speed up growth a little. anyone else use bloom enhancers?

I'm finally up to 8,000 lumens per square foot. 400 watt hps and 10 cfl's on the sides. stopping for some mylar substitute on my way home tonight. can't find that shiny wrapping paper anywhere. I'm going right to party city! if they don't have it then I give up, I'll get the real thing

I would run a single 50 or 60 amp 220 feed out to the building with 8-3 wire and put in a small sub panel right in the building. then you can run 5 or 6 dedicated outlets right from the box to around the building where ever you'll have the ballasts sitting. you'll have plenty of power and never...

htgsupply.com has ballast rebuild kits for 400 watt hps for $55. got mine there. I really should buy stock in the company. satisfied customer here. got a free lighter and a sticker! sweet..

maybe you need a new thread to help with your problems. lol. start a new one and post the link in here. I thought we had your problem sorted out the other day.

the 1000 watt light by itself uses about 9 amps. I would put that on it's own circuit. the 400 watt light and the fans on another circuit would be most reliable. trying to run everything on a single 15 amp circuit is asking for problems. one circuit to trip and your whole room will be in the dark.

I think I know what you mean, kinda like the landscaping lights. they have sharp pins that stab into the wire to make a connection without wire nuts or screw terminals. I don't care for those myself, they look to dangerous. sometimes you can get a bad or loose connection to the wire. my...

a 1000 watt hps for those few plants? guess you're expecting really nice results with that much light. I would wait until they are at least 12 inches tall to flower them. they will about double in size in the first 2 weeks of flowering, so be ready for that.

if a commercial company does it then it MUST be ok to do! I also trust the news and media and always follow fads. can't ever go wrong this way :-)

nice selection. lets smoke some cat piss together some time! I can't imagine that tasting good, maybe just really strong skunk

I don't see many roots that could be exposed in his kitty litter. light allows bacteria and fungus to grow. do you have a problem with your res when you allow light to get to it? yes, same thing here, lots of good nutrition in those roots for bad things to eat. I use black landscaping fabric to...
