250w HPS Club And Help Guide

well htg has the 250 with bulb and reflector for 117 plus shipping and tax so it comes out to about 140something which isnt bad at all. i found 400 watt MHs on craigslist thats about it. only if someone would trade some equipment for a computer lol
 
the htg supply deal is good i also got a timer with mine as well as both types of bulbs timer was free...those guys are pretty good over there
 
that sucks get what you can!! ive seen this 250w HPS on ebay for like $100 with shipping or something like that didnt look to bad keep on looking man.. best of luck

in BG i can get 250 W high pressure sodium for about 50 bucks (75 BGN) lol thats our curency :D
 
here is my new grow box. 250 hps attached. screen atached dis mornin. now i gotta wait till the plant fill it. the screen is 70 x 60 cm. the strain - DP Brainstorm. im planing to switch to 400W hps(which i have in ma gro store lol) for the last 4 weeks of the blooming cycle.

well that sounds like a good deal you should grab it if you can.. but shopping around for a while wont hurt unless your flowering:bigjoint:

that box looks very very well done!! and hopefully that strain gives you some fat buds that 400w will aid alot too! cant wait to see this one hopefully she turns into a monster:-P
 
Hey guys, just heard about this thread so I figured i'de post up a couple of my grows. I don't know if any of you were around for the old C13 cabinet thread on overgrow.com before it was shutdown but it definately opened my eyes to the 250w and cabinet growing. It really was the perfect size at 30"x24" with 50w per square foot but unfortunetly I was only able to use it for a few grows till I moved up to AK and our home depot doesn't have this cabinet anymore. :(

Anyways, heres a few pics of my very first grow with some northern lights. The LSTed ones are NL#5 x G13xHashplant.. one hell of a smoke, sorry no bud pics for this one tho. I thought I had pics of the cabinet too but it looks like those have gone missing too..

Here is my current cabinet, exactly half the size of my old cabinet at 24"x15", the only premade cabinet that I could find that works. Although now that i'm using the SOG technique and have gotten better over the years i'm pulling the same as I was when I first started with my old cabinet.

Here are a few pics of my white widow and power plant i've done so far with ths cab. With the power plant I was able to fit 8 plants in there, but i'm sure i'll be able to fit more, theres only 7 in that pic cause I cut 1 early.

Looks good...keeps things promising in my mind for my first go round. Going to be picking up white widow, G13/Haze, Dutch Passion, and maybe some dutch passion blueberry to start off. First go around 2 strains the widow and the G13...what are you guys working with?

Yea i've grown the widow a few times and it's an awesome plant. I've grown a G13 cross that was great, extremely powerful smoke.. knocks you on ur ass. I got some Power Plant going right now and i'm germing some new ones for my next grow, was thinkin about doing my 5 free power skunk seeds too from attitude. Hell actually i'm gonna go put those in a paper towel now. I'm gonna fit 15 of these buggers in my cabinet and see how many females I get.
