Yeah, seriously. Changing out the res for the TW is at least an hour of work. The pump is only 66gph, so it takes a while to do anything.
Next time, tubs will have drains, will be raised, and the plants will be smaller and I'll be more in control.

Thanks a lot bro.
I wasn't really trying for beasts but I underestimated the ridiculous growth after the flip of the lights. The TW tripled in size, at least. Next time the plants will be smaller and more manageable.

Dude your TW is starting to make me fear my TW. It's almost as tall as the 3 big girls that are WAY ahead of it.
LEGGY!

Fuck I know! The TW are really untamed beasts taking me along for the ride. Each day they are looking better and better but still no smell from them. The LA woman is the only thing in the tent stinkin.

Hi sicksad is that lumatek ballast switchable from 250 to 400 to 600 watts?
Are you using the super lumen switch on it and is it having much effect on the light levels
Just curious as im after one myself

Yes, it is. I haven't fiddled with those settings but its good to know they're there if you need them. I flipped the super lumen switch for a few minutes once but didn't notice enough of a difference to keep it like that. I'd rather the bulb last a little longer than try to squeeze more light out of it than it was designed for.

sicksad... why does the ballast have a 360w setting?
I understand the 400 and 600 settings and the way i understand it is it will let you run a 600w dimmed or a 400w bulb at the 400w setting...
but what if you have a 250w (which i do at the moment) - is the 360w setting not too much?

Yeah, my bad. I didn't realize the low setting was 360w, not 250w. You are correct that you can dim a 600w bulb or run a 400w bulb. A 250w bulb at 360w isn't very safe. You'd have to get either a 400w or a different ballast if you intend on running a lower wattage bulb. The 400w lumatek runs a 250w bulb.

yeah i was just curious as if it did run a 250w bulb it would be the only ballast you would ever need provided you dont want to go down the 1000w route...
I want a 600 but my area isnt big enough at the moment
Getting a 600 would mean i'd need to buy a tent and a new ballast and bulb
Ill stick with the 250 at the moment but i definitely want one... or 4... 4 would be good haha

Seriously, I wonder what lumatek was thinking going with a 360w setting. But yeah, you are right, it would be the last ballast you would need since it would run everything except 150w and 1000w bulbs.
What kind of space are you working with? I've seen guys stuff a 600w into pretty small spaces (extremely well ventilated of course) with great results.

I guess I'll weigh in and say I love my 600 so far. Make sure you get a legitimate fan!
Sick - dude my TW passed up the Juicy Fruits in height and is just doing whatever the hell it wants. I feel like it would clone really well though since it's so spindly. How do you think it would do outdoors where it can do whatever it wants?
