Man... once the roots hit the soup, IT'S ON !!!
I keep asking myself why, when the roots are doing SO good swimmin in the soup, would I take them out of the soup and put them in stones and drizzle the soup over the roots, like in the last run (NOOB) ???
This time is gonna be excellent.
They will leave the AG soup for the super oxygenated soup in the new system.

CDM ! ceramic discharge metal-halide (CDM) lampok so whats going on with the Phillips ballast, cmh? digitally dimmable?
and what are you going to do with the relay? is that for turning the pump on and off?
The ballast runs on 220v, so the relay connects the 220v circuit when 110v is applied to the coil in the relay, the 110v comes from a cord plugged into my timer.
The color spectrum of this lamp is supposed to be phenomenal, SO much better than CMH, runs on less current and puts out a lot less heat.... can't wait to get the girls under this !
Supposedly you dim the lamp via the ballast to 210W during the veg stage then back to full power (315w) for flowering.
This not only changes the brightness, but the color spectrum as well.

very nice fish
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceramic_discharge_metal-halide_lamp
Been learning about Arduino and relays, so I was flat out curious about your relay and great way to poke a tid bit lil more efficiency by going 220v
I have heard of many switching over from hps from the heat and its legit. I have a friend using cmh[660's] and a couple of the new induction lights just getting started in the mix, but predominantly cmh.....
His flowers are sought well out.....I have smile anytime I get the privilege of visiting the garden.....
really nice upgrade, this is getting serious!

Yea, these 315's are supposed to OUTperform a 600w HPS !

Finally got the PH stable, changed the res today and upped the nutes a bit.
I kept track of my feeding schedule from the first run and I am going to reduce that by 25%
It's dark up top but somethin's brewing down below.
I finally got babies in the freezer area like I originally intended

I have decided to mainline all 3!

I got the new CDM lighting system all wired up and running a heat test right now !
And I put a bigger piece of reflective material on the back and put the old back piece in the door.
This pic and the video to follow do NOT do justice to how freakin bright this puppy is.
You can see right off that it def has a more camera friendly spectrum !

OK... ALL you lurkers... everyone, anyone... QUESTION:
The plants are at 3 strong nodes and the 4th is poppin right out.
They are 17 days old.
How soon should/could I put these under the CMD?
I can't refer to my first run because I had to veg longer while out of town.
I want to get these under the big light as soon as it is safe to!
