so i went to my grow dungeon the other day and decided to hang out to make sure that my timers were all synced up properly. i had just installed an 8 bulb T5 fixture a week prior and low and behold it was still on.....:?i checked the timer and it was clicked off......then i noticed my stupid "not doing any good" wall mount fan was turned off..:shock: i followed the cords around and guess what i did?!?!?!?!? can ya?!?!? can ya guess?!?!? thaaaats riiiight i plugged my wall fan into a timer and my light fixture into a powerstrip. TADAAAAAAA!!!!!!24 hours of light for my 2nd week of flowering ladies,YAAAAY!!

these are the lessons i learned
- keep your area tidy (stow your cords)
-make sure everything is operating properly (i usually do but 10 years growing i got complacent)
- dont get complacent:evil:
- edit: experiment w// your new "super cool super cheap" T5 fixture....... BUT NOT IN YOUR MAIN ROOM!!!!![GRRRR anger]

learning is fun. maybe someone will come to my house tonight and kick me in the nuts while i sleep.

It happens when your in a hurry. I took down my ebb & flow table after a grow, pull out the table, removed the rock pellets, the full take down and cleaning thing. It was getting late so I decided to tear down the reservoir the next day...Guess what I forgot to do? I forgot to unplug the dam flood timer. The next day I went down stairs, empty reservoir but a very VERY wet basement floor.
That was just a brain fart mistake, but on my other cords, I put labels on every cord plug to be sure I don't mess them up. When you get alot of them and they are the same color, it is very easy to mix them up.
