hey everyone. I was in my room today (i havnt moved my clones in yet i was going to tomorrow morning!!) and while i was in there checking to insure my nutrient solution was stable. The light was on, I was also making sure i have the temps under control. Everything was going great actually but while i was in there the light turned off! in fact it seemed like the surge protector restarted!. im not sure to be honest.
here's what i got:
I have a 1000 Watt HPS with Xtrasun ballast on a timer, my inline exhaust fan (Rs6HO inline exhaust fan 115v 1.2A 130W) and a Walmart osculating fan on one surge protector rated for 15A 125V 1875W also says 1000 joules but i think thats related so something else. the above is whats on the surge protector where the problem was.
what else is in the room:
I have one small pump (100GPH i THINK not positive), air stone/pump, and aquarium heater i think 50W.
My mother room is in the same room and has one walmart oscolating fan and a 400W old MH. its soil in the mom room btw. Im pretty sure im not exceeding my rooms capabilities.
after typing this i remember noticing my mother room light not being affected (I have one side not closed off yet because it wasn't needed untill i put my clones on the veg room, i could see the light on the wall it would of had to 'warm up' again . so actually it must be the surge protector?
the package for the surge protector also says "Clear poser auto shut-off safeguard" what does that mean? you guys think thats my problem? I have no idea but i know its bad for the plants to have their light shutting off all day. and i really need to put my girls under because their roots are exploding in my cloning tray. please someone with any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated
this post seemed rather long as i just scrolled up. I may seem a little scattered. i appologize , im tired and its been a long day getting everything ready and now that things seem to finally get dialed in. i came across this light problem. good thing i caught it though! imagine if it went unnoticed. please help me fix it.
