yes, 28c is about 85f. That's as hot as it ever gets in my grow closet (when I shut it while not home, and leave the light on, it gets to be that warm. Most of the time, It's open, and it's a good deal cooler). I have not added nutes (they're too young, aren't they?), but I think it may be my...

270W HPS at about 18" from the plant, and a 24W Fluorescent Full Spectrum tube at about 6". The temp is 28C right at the plant. It's in a fairly open closet area (4' wide, 3' deep, 5' high) with an oscillating fan blowing across it to help promote stem growth and cycle air.

Hiya everyone, I'm about a week into my first grow and I'm noticing that my leaves seem to be drooping more than they probably should. They also look a little dry and withered. I would normally think that it was that they aren't getting enough water, but the soil is still fairly moist and I...

I just found this quote next to an image that looks just like my light: "These Grow Lights are just the right size for a small indoor garden-- The ballast is housed inside of the hanging reflector, which makes this system perfect for hanging from low ceilings or under a shelf." Grow lighting...

I have an HPS Light that I bought used. It blazes something fierce when I turn it on (after about 5min of warmup), but it's just got a standard plug for a wall outlet. Now, I understand that the ballast is used to control the flow of electricity to the bulb. If my light is working fine...

Alright. I like the idea of switching at 2 wks. I'm at 5 days currently, and I'm at about a 2.7 cm leaf-size (from tip of one leaf to the stem), with three real leaves plus the two little baby leaves (the little baby leaves are starting to wrinkle, it seems, I'm not sure what this means... But...

What's the merits and advantages/disadvantages of 18/6 over 24/0 for early vegetative growth (seedling to 12" or so)? I've seen people who recommend both. Understandably, lower electric bills from 18/6, but other than that, are there any real advantages to this? If you were to start with...
