It's a Super Agro bulb that has some blue added to the spectrum. I have a digital ballast so I'm not sure about compatibility with a magnetic ballast.

Impressive.....Here's a shot of my two girls under my 270w. I'm at day 65 of flower right now. Pretty much all bud at this point.

To be honest, I'm surprised at how well they are doing since I had a few problems this grow. I'm guessing that they are about 2-3 weeks from harvest but I'm just going to go by trich color.

It's a weed and wants to live and thrive no matter what you do to it! LOL! If you can get that with soil then hydro will be no problem - just faster and bigger from the custom application of nutes!

I've thought about going hydro but I've had such good luck with soil that I hate to mess with it.
FoxFarm soil, FoxFarm nutes, and then I just follow their feeding schedule. I have a private well so I don't have to worry about chlorine. The water has a lot of iron in it but the ph is 6.8 and the plants seem to do fine with it.

I understand your reluctance. I was a dirt farmer for 25 years before I started hydro. I use tap water with a ph of 7.5 and a ppm of 350-375 ( that's really "hard" water) It's doable becase you can adjust for it.
No problem with staying with what you know and perfecting it.

Some great looking plants!
Here is my girl 50 days into flower. She is my first but not my last that's for sure. Unknown strain got the seed from a sack (rare), vegged under florescent then picked up a 250w Hydrofarm HPS from a guy on cl. Hopefully in about 3 weeks I can chop, getting very anxious.
I will update with new picks before harvest.

looking good man how long did you veg for? How much do you think you wil pull per plant? alsoi see you have nug growing the whole way down the stem hoed you manage to get it like that? mine seem to only nug out the top 8inches and the rest is pretty barren and fluffy,..Here's a shot of my two girls under my 270w. I'm at day 65 of flower right now. Pretty much all bud at this point.

I took the clones on June 3rd and transferred them to soil two weeks later. I vegged them for 5 1/2 weeks and put them into flower on July 25th.
I have no idea how much I'm going to pull and don't want to guess because I'm afraid I'll look like an idiot. Plant height not including the pot is 15" so the cola's are about 12". I originally was going to have three plants and used a smaller pot than I normally would have with only two plants.
Not sure where that little nug came from. I usually trim those little sprouts off the first two weeks of flower but that one spouted on the back side of the plant and I didn't see it until much later and decided just to leave it.

I take tweezers and pluck the sugar leaves off for samples and put it on a white piece of paper.well mine doesnt look as dank as most of everyones elses, but lookin good, some of the trich are turnin cloudy most are still clear. an some have a touch of amber here n there, doob since u have the same scope, were do u pluck a piece to check at? i jus pulled a lil leaf out from the bud an checked it, like the lil shoot leafs or w/e, i uno, but i know my trichs dont look like technos lol thats beautiful
Make sure that you don't have any light from the HPS around because it can make a trichome seem amber when it's really not.
