damn i for sure thought you'd be cali or something with those kinda AC units lol. What kinda lights do you run and in what size of space?

Thats what im sayin haha let me know where them deals are at so i can snipe em up. I guess i was just trying to over prepare to save my ass later. Might just have to go the old school hps air cooled route and see how it goes. Thats why im here asking my man! Im newer to growing and need the...

If i just use 3 or 4 1000w lights in that room with no cool tubes it would probs be smokin hot. But i also cant be spending 3k on an a/c unit till i know im going to be progressing with this at a good pace. prefer to get a couple grows under my belt first. Im putting up walls and shit this...

yeah these are all reasons im trying to avoid the massive a/c unit lol. I don't wanna fork out 2 or 3k for an ac unit off the hop, i'd prefer to do that a bit later, maybe after a crop or two :) Im presuming you're growing somewhere very warm year round? Cali? I was hoping to get away with...

Yeah i know it can be very very pricey lol i just meant cheaper in terms of some companys may be having wicked sales or stuff like that. Or maybe someone knows of good deals on certain piece from certain places to buy etc. I know its not cheap to get into and im aware of that but nothing is...

The only reason i was considering using all of that is because i have most of it available to me already lol. The only thing im really wanting to change would be my lighting as im sure im going to run into heat issues once i move into the new room. Im currently only running 1 1000w HPS but non...

Im using well water. I should probably ph/ppm meter it and see where im sitting to begin with but i dont have the meters yet :( Well i got some old AF ones but i doubt theyre calibrated or working properly. I do alternate my water and feedings. water one time, feed the next etc. The feed chart...

im only 3 weeks into flower at the moment so i still got a solid 5-6 weeks left. Im just following what my local grow store has half ass told me to do lol. He told me to not put nutes to it till i water 2-3 times as the soil has a fair amount built in and need to get some of that gone before...

I have been ph'ing my water to roughly 6 and then adding nutes, then retesting an trying to stay between 6-6.5. My local grow shop said my runoff should be coming out at 6 but i just learned that so am gunna try that now. Prior to that i wasnt checking my runoff ph. I am currently in soil, some...

Im not currently runnin any co2 on this setup. Dont even have that great of airflow either :( These are all reasons for changing rooms and rebuilding lol. All i know that he does have is the generator and propane tank but i dont think he has any monitors i could use so i would have to purchase...

I believe I'm running hortilux bulbs right now already, just running what my old man already had haha. As for the hoods, they are pieces of shit and aren't even cooled so I'm having to stay probably 2' above the plant to keep the canopy temp decent. My plants are different heights so that...

I already have a co2 generator, not sure if its good or not but its propane based. Ill take pics of it so u can see if its worth running. Would running co2 in the room make me require less fans/filters etc thus cutting the cost down a bit while being more efficient?

Yes the airbox is a carbon filter with removable, replaceable filters :) thought it might be good for long term, looks well built. Do you guys run hepa filtered air to your room? I'm presuming you don't if your running co2 because it will pull it out like you said. So if you run co2 then you...

Can anyone enlighten me where to look to find info about building these style of lights? Are they better/worse vs standard HID MH/HPS ? I'm fairly new to the forums and growing so should i just stay away from this type of stuff till i have more understanding?

Im in canada so craigslist is shit up here unfortunately. Also im trying to keep it somewhat budget friendly until i actually learn the ropes and can make some good buds. I'm trying to stay away from the a/c if i can but i already have a couple of those roll around portable units if need be. If...

Hey guys thanks for the responses! If you don't mind me asking , where are you that you need that kind of cooling power?! Im currently running 2x 1000 watts HID HPS over a 4x8 table on 2 big girls that im finishing out and i have 0 A/C units running lol. Ill try to take pics of my budget setup...

Hey guys, so im new to the forums! Had a little browse and seems to be alot of people here who know their shit! Anyways im just getting into this fantastic hobby and am needing some help. I currently am running 2 standard 1000w HID lights practicing my hand on a couple girls. Things seems to be...
