400w Club-Show Off Your 400w Pride And Joy

this thread is sick, so yeah I just switched my light over to 12/ 12 not going to do any 24 hour darkness, but I got a question, my plants are starting to droop just a little, I let my coc medium go alittle dry but after I fed them they didnt perk back up, an and low humidity like 40 make plants droop?

queen fire killa, that is one fat ass cola you got there, how close do you keep the tip of that to your light? like 1 foot or a little more?

Queen fire killa???? Green mane Green I'm no queen whatsoever hahaha.

I keep the light right at a foot. I would like it to be at 15-16 inches but I ran out of room for the light to go up. I have a little bleaching on the top of the cola but thats it. Next grow I'll know to extend the LST about a week longer to keep up with that.

Light height is somethin I struggled a bit with. If you want it more evenly distributed you can tie em down during flower. Think it's called firsting. I had to do that cuz mine were stretchy. The recommended height for 400w is 14 inches I think, but plants don't know the difference except from the heat. You can keep the light as close as the heat will allow. When you bring it closer you deliver a lot more lumens to the plant. If it's uncomfortable for your hand (like you wanna move it right away), then it's uncomfortable for the plant. Don't get too liberal with that cuz if your fan fails you're fucked. I kept a lot of colas within 6-12 inches and never had any damage other than a bit of tip burn on the bigger fan leaves. Are you growing all indicas in that cab?

:bigjoint:hey chief, i got two hid in my 4x4x7 tent an with both lights on it doesent get any hotter than 72. i have the vortex intake fan hooked up to both lights now an its great. also i leave two windows open all da time in my grow room an im in the midwest so its cold right now. at night i leave the fans on an it gets like 65 in there so im hopin for some good colors. jus see how the heat is. those hid can put out alot of it

Sweet. Thanks for the info. Sounds like the fan is keeping your temps pretty regulated. I did go ahead and get the bolt-on fan for my HID. It was only $65, bolts right on to the reflector hood, has a 4" flange built-in, and offers 100cfm. That should keep my grow area within decent temps. Now my paranoia is shifting to carbon filters. When will it stop.....:wall:
 
hello 400 watters!

Starting my new grow two months early!! :bigjoint:

After receiving some very fortunate news, im going ahead with 4 big bang plants.
I figured, if anything goes horribly wrong then ill just cut em' down, they int nothing special and then i'll just stick to the original choice of purple wreck :mrgreen:

So here goes,
For this grow im using:

4 x GHS Big Bang seeds
DR100 1x1x2 grow tent
Powerplant 400w HPS & 400w star ballast.
4 x 20 litre pots, much bigger than before!
BioBizz Light mix soil
BioBizz Grow, Bloom, alga-mic and TopMax
Carbon Filter & Extractor fan
2 x 7'' desk fans
'n' a whole lot of TLC :bigjoint:

All four seeds have germinated and ive placed them in 4inch pots which i'll water with just plain rain water untill week two...thats if they survive after what ive been hearing about the GHS company :-(
Ive got em' in the DR100, they've been in soil for 2days now with the lights on 18hours, lightly spraying with rain water when the soil feels dry.
It got a bit hot in there....about 35+ (celsius) so i took the filter off the ducting to try and drop the temps abit, ater a while this seemed to do the trick, there wont be no smell yet so im gunna keep it like this for a while.
Not much else to say, think ive covered it all so far, gotta drop by the HP store again cause i forgot to get the trays with the pots!! :lol:

Feels good to be growing again....:bigjoint:

Fingers crossed.....

:peace:

Pleasure, glad things are looking up. Get to know when your plants need water. Some people let them droop, others check the top 5cm/2inch, or know how much they weight when they are dry (roughly, you don't need scales:lol:)

Good luck and look after em girls Jayada.

What up 400w community......
Just figured out that this first grow is taking WAY to long! 4 Sensi Star and a Mendo Purp are about 9 weeks old. Its my first grow they have had a rough life up to this point but should flower in about a week, finally. :-)
First 6 pics were taken on the 1st....
Last 4 were taken on Sept 27th.

Two of the SS will be in a grow off with one variable bloom nutes! One will be taking AN Sensi Bloom A/B
The other will be taking BMO Flower Power/GIG. I will start a thread just for that.



Enjoy the pics. Let me know what everyone thinks. Wanna drop some advice hit that link in my sig. :-)

Thanks Lonleysmoka,
the main reason was, being it christmas soon n everyting, there was going to be family staying and there was no chance of banging a grow out in time after my previous grow for before then so it was being put off untill january, but the tables have turned........:mrgreen:
hope all that made sense :lol:........im merrily baked.:bigjoint:

:peace:
