When u first proposed the plan i was gonna say that!!!!!! ive seen some of ur older grows from b4 and ive seen the crosses and i always wanted some DST seeds i swear..that head bandxcali-o cross is sick...that d-og sounds good 2..i honestly think it would better than buying seeds and its UNIQUE thats even more impotant..ive been MIA because of the shower..i will be back 2 posting as normal in 2 days..i had a terrible 600 accident yesterday..i wasnt home and the ac didnt come on for 2 hours+i didnt water for 2 days = 2 extremely burnt plants..one of which was a YIELDER 3 and a half feet tall ATLEAST 2 and a half feet wide..and a really pretty diesel plant which was beginning(*) 2 change colors..
...i might post pics if my heart lets me..but i vote for the homemade beans..i trust u enough 2 send them 2 me so its not a problem there..ill try 2 stay updated
p.s...600s lookin good..im jealous..everybody keep up the good work..
Cool, that's another Yes in the bag....
Well sounds like your plants had a few hours of what my plants had for 2 weeks. I am sure with some TLC they will be right silver!
I know I'm a total noob, but I bought this ballast from a hydro shop and they gave me a 400w mh free with the setup of ballast and hood, so naturally I assumed it was a 400w ballast. Recently, however I checked the side of the ballast and its 600w! Seeing as my hydrosun hps bulb was malfunctioning on me after a full flower cycle, I went back to the hydro store and they hooked me up with a Agrosun 600w for $80. I tried it out last night and its great... I think my plants are really into the extra light. Took a few shots...
in order: blue dream clone jr, blue dream clone, two NL clones, and trainwreck clone
I think they will lvoe the xtra light...nice little bonus discovering it was a 600!! sweet and welcome to the club!!
only if i could do that but yeh see im marrid and the other half would have a heart attak after seeing the bill lolz. well im gena go with 500watts for vegging and the 600watts flower,
how would the outcome be of the yield with 5 plants and the 600watts for flowering?
You should be looking at anything around 10oz to a lb I would say....if you have vegged the girls for long enough....also depends on how well your plants yield.
I got this from theloadeddragon's site and thought ya'll might enjoy it.

GREAT SONG COF!!!!!!!
Curious, are you saying a digital ballast will not try to hot start? I have such problems with losing power, I had to by a time delay from CAP. It won't try to start my lights for fifteen minutes should the power go out. I have digital ballasts but my electricity will go off and then come back on a second or two later but this could happen ten times a week. It seems we have a problem with electricity and squirrels in my neck of the woods.
I am using a normal ballast and have been having problem with my fuse handling my kitchen (which is also running my lights) I need to get my kitchen re-wired basically. But the power goes off, and when I swithc it back on my ballasts come back on no problem, they are just normal ballasts. The only one I have an issue with is my MH light, that needs to cool before coming back on.....
I have the same issues with the power going off momentarily, usually during a storm.I have been in the flower room when that happens and the digital will recover almost immediately, while the traditional ballast will not hot start. It's not the bulb, but the ballast. All further ballast will be digital.

Strange that you have found this, as I say, never had any problems....so far.
DST, all we need to do is trust one another and we can be our own seedbank. I applaud your idea. That would be a yes vote from me.
I've been looking forward to doing another sativa grow but I think that is going to have to go on the back burner until next summer. I have a hawaiian snow and a neville's haze that I've been saving and both are feminized. I also have some jock horror and some malawi 99 regular beans. I'm thinking maybe an outdoor scrog about twelve feet long and eight feet wide, put all four strains under it and hope for a male to pollinate the others. That should give us enough sativa dominant beans for everyone to have a dozen or so each.
I too must confess I've always wanted to try some of the strains you grow DST, especially the casey jones and the ny47. My mouth waters when I see that casey.
The Casey is a winner....I really need to look at some more sativa based strains as well!!
gotta question for all 600ers...ok i germinated 3 seeds in a wash rag all 3 had half inch tap roots. I planted the seeds into bx promix 1/8 inch underneath the surface, watered with plain tap water ph'd at 6.0...7 days later and i still dont have any sprouts so i got curious and dug them up and all 3 look the exact same as when i planted them. I never had this happen before and am wondering what could have happened to make all 3 seeds go dormate under the dirt. The strain is jacks cleaner x (grapefruit x g-13)
This happened to me just the other day. I have stopped putting them in paper now and just soak for 24 hours then pop in the soil as I thought exactly what 1BMM was saying.
I work to damn much.... I work 10pm to 7 in the morning and sleep most of the day. Anyway My 2 Clones and my Big Blueberry under my T-5 has yet to get any nutes and my B.F.F. needs to have its roots cut from my Harvested Purple God Bud I need a way to come up with some time management my girls are suffering. *Sigh* So I'm thinking Thursday i will cut and remove the remainder of my Purple God Bud and discard it all(PM) Then i need to drain my Res(I haven't checked the PH in lord knows how long) Not sure if i should re put nutes my B.F.F. has A LOT of long white hairs but the trics are looking mostly clear turning cloudy so what should i do. I got a lot of shit on my plate at the moment just needed to put it out there and get some opinions on time management with your grows.
I wouldn't just discard the bud, even with pm. I have made hash from mouldy bud before and it was all good. If you want to get rid of the plant, just grind it up in a food blender and then mix it with ice (like bubble hash) then sieve and drain the water away, you will be left with plenty trichs for a nice smoke....if you need further afvise I will point you in the right direction. As far as my time management with my girls. I look in on them at least once per day, and water twice per week, so maybe 5 hours in total a week - and about 20 hours just staring at them, hahah) Not really sure what else I can say wiuth Time Management though Hotsause.
Well folks just when i was gearing up for a good season fuck me. I must tear down my entire room. And i mean every square inch. Im just sick at the moment. I just got wind that my city is upgrading utility meters on a mass scale. FUCK. And the one they are upgrading is smack in the cave. FUCKKKKKK. I got some time to finish up whats already near finished but as for my vegging girls just fresh into flower, well they are going to have to go outdoors. There is absolutely no way around it. Pisses me off man i got alot of work in that setup but fuck it. I was planning on going balls out remod again so maybe i can get the fucks in when im gearing up to snap on my ultimate room. Sheesh going to smoke a hole gram of hash peace 1bmm
WTF, do you rent your gaff 1BMM? that just sucks the big un. How long you looking at?
Have a good day folks, when your day starts that is!
Peace,
DST
