im using a built in wardrobe. its 50cm deep and up to the shelf is about 1.8m and about the same width. obviously the 250's light wont spread that far. i try to keep it to 1m width. plus im still using the other half of the cupboard. i had to cut a hole in the wall though. im using 2 120mm pc fans for extraction. without it after 12 hours with the 250 on its 40c/103f in there. i have a 9" desk fan this time around as im doing a scrog and i dont want mold. lost an oz this time due to mold whilst curing, really pissed me off. but like you say its a learning experience, my first run was 4 auto's and i got 44g dried. not a complete failure but i expected more. i was using 330w of various cfls to flower. ive had a real mishap inbetween that and my last grow. i had 2 white widows and 2 big bud autos and my missus got the hump with the noise and took a pair of scissors to the lot. i nearly killed her. last run was better, 1 plant in dwc chopped her early and got 70.9g dried aiming for at least 5oz this time with 2 in a scrog and one ww clone off to the side. probably gonna make cannabutter with the clone though and smoke the other 2How big of area were your growing in? Just curious as to what else I can do to make sure they are happy. And I don't think I'll ever go back to flowering with cfl. My first run wasn't very sucessful. Got a whopping 8 grams dry lol. But hey It's a learning experience right? Part of it was due to me(well actually probably most of it was me) but oh well. Everyday I'm seeing new white hairs thrown and I couldn't be happier.

Damn man that is a tad bit on the warm side haha! I am thinking of using some pc fans for extraction out of my tent. I have a cool tube with a inline fan pushing air through it and back out the tent with lights at 10". I would of been pissed if my girl took scissors to my crop! But I don't see her doing that seeing as she is my growing partner lol.im using a built in wardrobe. its 50cm deep and up to the shelf is about 1.8m and about the same width. obviously the 250's light wont spread that far. i try to keep it to 1m width. plus im still using the other half of the cupboard. i had to cut a hole in the wall though. im using 2 120mm pc fans for extraction. without it after 12 hours with the 250 on its 40c/103f in there. i have a 9" desk fan this time around as im doing a scrog and i dont want mold. lost an oz this time due to mold whilst curing, really pissed me off. but like you say its a learning experience, my first run was 4 auto's and i got 44g dried. not a complete failure but i expected more. i was using 330w of various cfls to flower. ive had a real mishap inbetween that and my last grow. i had 2 white widows and 2 big bud autos and my missus got the hump with the noise and took a pair of scissors to the lot. i nearly killed her. last run was better, 1 plant in dwc chopped her early and got 70.9g dried aiming for at least 5oz this time with 2 in a scrog and one ww clone off to the side. probably gonna make cannabutter with the clone though and smoke the other 2

The girls do look a little abused. I did MST to keep the terminal buds away from the heat when growing into the bulb. Put them in the dark, last Wednesday, after a final flush. Cropped them this morning (10/22/12) after 11wks of 12/12. Green weight, including stems....2.45lb, from 5 plants. I expect to loose more than 50% after drying and removing the buds from the stems. I will post some phtos later. For as many screw ups as I had, I couldn't be more pleased with the dense nugs produced by the 250 HPS. I thank everyone in the RIU forums and especially the 250 club who offered help and encouragement...many thanks.looking good... (although a little worse for wear) be interesting to see the weight.
