I think im gonna order a bag of megacrop to try. Was debating between MC and Jacks, MC is a little easier for me to get

Has your girl put her plants in yet? whats she growing this time?
She has a couple plants in there, blue buckets this time, same setup with the bucket dolly. She has one star dawg and one durban poison. The star dawg doesn't like being monstercropped, shows signs of a deficiency, we will see how it does. Last run it wasn't monster cropped and it did great.

I am not familiar with the megacrop, do you use calcium nitrate and epsom salt with it like Jacks 3-2-1?

The guy im mimicking is using calimagic and amor si with megacrop as his base.

The growers over in that thread are getting good results with it, its a simple 1 part, so thats always nice. couple additives and done.

The bulb has been in since saturday. It is designed to be used with HPS ballasts. https://growershouse.com/growers-choice-630w-de-double-ended-cmh-ceramic-mh-lamp-3k-r-red-enhanced

They run a lot cooler, more wattage is being made into light instead of heat. Great spectrum with UV so I won't need to change to a finishing bulb at the end for extra resin production.
ive seen those before, didnt realize that they could work with (some) normal ballasts. looks like im pulling the trigger on this experiment too, thanks for the heads up

Yeah they didn't work on my Phantom ballasts, and they tell you not to use them in a Nanolux so that left my Sunsystem ballasts. Next experiment is to get another bulb and try using a splitter to run 2 of them on one sunsystem ballast cranked to 1200 watts.

The thing I think I will like with Jacks is the ability to tailor the NPK ratio. I'll have to figure it out because I like to drop that Nitrogen in flower and ramp up the P and K.

Hey,

if your building a room tomorrow, choice is panda film or mold resistant drywall painted

what are you choosing?

definitely this ^^^

Thats what my rooms are now. Just be sure to gap the drywall up off the floor about 3/4" with spacers cut out of 1x lumber.
Ya I always use a scrap piece of 3/4 plywood for spacer when I'm hanging drywall to keep it off the floor

Going to get started in there soon

Ok thanks good to know. I’m at day 41 with the same strain or at least I think it’s the same. Can make a plan now.

Different phenotypes may vary a little and of course the environment effects things too.
