This is what I expected you to say. With a large setup your right but ever tried add 2 x16" fan to increase air flow in a standard 1m tent, it doesn't work. Don't growers call it bud box or somthing when you try and put a small fan under the canopy and another one aimed down at the canopy so you...

OP check this link out https://www.rollitup.org/t/topping-went-wrong.887803/ loads of members jump on this thread and said his mate mess the plants up by defoliation, told her there all talking crap and your mates done a great job they all turned out great, a large level canopy full of buds

lmao this thread makes little to no sense what about all the newbie growers out there with there t5's, low watt leds, hps in flower They all need to keep the plants short, bushy and may need to remove some fan leaves in flower to keep the humidty low and make the best use of there lights This...

I would change the light so you plants have a 12hour kip now and keep this cycle till havest it takes plants a few weeks to start reveging so i can't see one nigh causing too much stress

you can't see but the buds slow down growing in the last few weeks in flower and fill out i did a test run and havest 2 plants week 7,8,9 the plants in week 7 each weighed about 3 oz's, week 8 each weighed about 3.5 oz's week 9 each weighed in at 4oz's havest 2 weeks early could cost you...

On short bushy plants, cfl works great in veg tbh I have never flower a plant under cfl but every thread that i have read about hps vs t5 in flower, has said you get denser buds and a higher yeild with hps so that's what i have always done.

The chart you found is full of good info but the distance from the hood to the canopy is only down to the heat, you want the hood really close to the canopy, do the back of the hand test, if you can't hold you hand at the canopy level because its too hot, its too hot for the plants so lift the...

What about this setup :) In your setup i would go for autos and keep the lights on for 24 hours

Thats a great ideal, use air cooled hood with a fan attached to one side, above the room and a square hole cut of of the top of the box, so the hood just fits and spot weld it in place somthing like this with this setup you could use a 600w hps and have the canopy 12" below the hood as the...

Talking about the cost of the good led lights and the amount they cost to run compaired to a cheap 400w hps setup. hps are better value and will give you good results hps vs leds is an open debate that why I said imo

The bleached leaves at the top of the plant is down to the hood beeing to close to the canopy

so @Fast dog if you want to do a simple grow with good results, grow 3 or 4 plants in soil under 400w hps imo leds just a gimmic, pay a lot of money for the lights or you have to make them yourself, but the thing is the results are not better than a hps

I have use bonsai techniques to start my plants off in veg loads of times ( and i am sure lots of growers have on this site, (your thinking out side the box and most growers don't like this ) there is a bonsai techniques where you can slow down the growth of a mother plant and keep it small for...

yes short answer is yes, larger the bud the higher the risk don't get any water on the buds, keep the floor dry and keep the humidty low 30-40 and the chances of getting bud rot is low

how to max out a 4x2x5 tent, good question and tbh its not a good size your rooms to small for a 600w you could go for a 400w hps but that would only cover 3ft x 2ft could use 2x 250w hps side by side, never tried it but you should get a high yeild, heat from 2 x 250w hps could be a problem in...

yer i have a bottle of the cal-mag its great stuff, but if you can't get to the local grow for a few days and need some, the water from boiled eggs will help

what about if you keep the water your boil eggs in, let it cool down and water the plants with it, this will give your plants some free calcium :)

Didn't know that, just been dimming my ballast from 600w to 400w, been doing if for the last 5 years, about 4 crops a year never had any problems with exploding bulbs at least the first week or two in flower. do you think dimmer able ballast are a gimic and you should never dim a bulb?

Imo its a good ideal to buy a high qualty dimmable ballast and have the option to dim the bulb down if you need too there no risk and its safe
