Block-IR is great stuff. I went to my local hydro shop www.discount-hydro.com and they had an IR gun around (actually, the same one in the picture that is in their catalog...) and unless there is some voodoo going on, it works just like the pictures...

I have a NextGen 1000w ballast, and it has been running great for 4 months. I have had 2 crop cycles go under it, and it most definitely produces a better yield than the standard ballasts that I have in the same area. Plants under it do better...Go figure. I don't know about 30% more light...

No, fluorescents do not give the same growth. T5 lighting, is good, though. A good choice is here: Discount Hydroponics - Pioneer T5 Lighting ~Quiet420Guy

What kind of air purifier? ~Quiet420Guy

Just get a CO2 meter and don't worry about it...Quit guessing...Digital Accuracy. That rules.

A better idea would be to get a Kill-a-Watt meter. They're pretty cool. Shows the amps, volts, watts, etc. Read about them here: Discount Hydroponics - Kill-A-Watt ~Quiet420Guy

I've got a ValuLine 6" fan. It's made by C.A.P. Pretty quiet. Not as quiet as my Vortex, but, at 2/3 the price, I can live with a few extra db. ~Quiet420Guy

Sorry, Charlie, Your ballasts blow. They last about a month or two. I won't be the "Quiet Guy" on this one... ~420QuietGuy

LED Lights kinda suck right now. Don't believe the hype. Maybe 5 years or so they will be good stuff, but not now. ~Quiet420Guy

You can run them 24 hours until you flower. I think they grow a little faster that way. But I'm sure that we will get 200 opinions on this.. ~Quiet420Guy

That varies by strain. Some are as short as 6 weeks, but most are in the 8-9 week level and some are even longer. ~Quiet420Guy

What is the size of your area? What kind of CO2 device do you have? You want the PPM level to be about 1500 ppm. That is releasing 1 cubic foot of CO2 into a 10' x 10' x 8' room. ~Quiet420Guy

No. You do not use Sweet in the vegging stage, only the blooming stage.

I think that you need to add some nutrients. That is pretty indicative of a nitrogen deficiency... ~Quiet420Guy

I would use a 1000w Air Cooled light with a centrifugal blower. ~Quiet420Guy

You gotta raise that light and stop feeding so heavy. You can't force feed a plant. Less is more... ~Quiet420Guy

You need a real fan to get rid of the heat. Try a centrifugal blower like this: Discount Hydroponics - C.A.P. ValuLine Blowers ~Quiet420Guy

Yes, though it does have a medium base that fits into a regular socket, it will not light up. They still need a ballast. ~Quiet20Guy

I have had nothing but good luck with Discount Hydro. If you bought that product from them, I would venture to bet that they would take it back with no questions asked. That's the advantage of dealing with a good company. Peace, Quiet420Guy
