I love you guys so much...

So im just now getting bsck around. I will read and get back to all your post's tomorrow, but I just wanted to let you know for being left alone all week all my babies and moms seem to be doing quite well. I found one little difficiency on the greeen ribbons, but I think thats cause I lowered the nuts to 500ppm befor I left.
"this is why I do not reccamend growing multiple strains shairing a rez"
the green ribblons were growing the best befor I left and the SLhaze are looking the best now...

also I just came up on $1000 worth of free nutes @ a grow show so I think im gonna add a few buckets to my scrogg room off to the side and start a cool little grow off.. compitition.. I believe I have enouph nutes of 5 different brands.. well it sounds like fun to me anyways. Also the supernatural rep for one said he would start sending me free nutes if I did a full start to finish side by side for him..
My biggest freebies tho were a cool pair of them growroom work glasses.. way cool wait till you see the pic thru the lens.. and I also came up on a brand new free ph pen from bluelab.. I must say out of all the reps I hung out with they were the best.. Must be something bout the life style in New Zealand cause I havnt met one cat from there that I didnt like.. well in this case it was a chick, but you get the point..
cheers to all you New Zealanders. Oh heck Auzies same to you....

talk to you guys tomorrow

we all care fab dont forget that brother.. how you doing with that..?

This thread moves at lightening speeds.
tell me bout it. I cant keep up with all this excitement..
to make it fun I will post lots of pics tonight.

yeah i do need more light i think. its a 3 x 3 space with a 400 over it. think one 600 would suffice for this grow or 2 400s? i almost feel like 2 400 watters i that small of an area would be overkill but when i fill the room up ill have atleast 3 of them running.
hey Tranc that was a great vid you posted I left you a comment that might be helpfull.. as for lighting for your total flower space of what did you say 4x10 or something.?? I would do 2 600w hoods

lol. bro I just took the time to talk to all the reps instead of just running thru grabing samples.. I made some good contacts with some good people and many of them said they would send me way more products if I did a review for them..

sounds like more science experiments in my future..

yea that first tub does look a bit bushy... you could always 86 the bagseed plants that arent doing much than you can space out the others. I know you want to do SOG, but for this first run since you dont have many plants why dont you install that other light space out the tubs and do a scrog type of grow. that way you can maximize this grow and we can start on getting some good mommas to work for you..

yeah i could do something like that. i mean after they all show sex some of them are gonna have to gtfo of my house anyways lol only room for 1 dude up in here with these ladies, ya digg. lol anyways yeah i mean i think this friday im gonna get me another 400 watter, that way when i fill up the room i can have a 400 on each end with a 6 in the middle or vice versa. i mean i have a 600 right now but its a 240v and i dont have a 240 volt capable plug in. so its not hooked up right now. thinkin bout gettin a nice 600 watter with hood this friday.

hey bro im an electrician so if you like I can help you out with that problem if your not afraid to play with electricity.? it would be cheap and easy to get a 240v circuit in your room than you can use what you have and put that money back in your pocket or use it on other upgrades..

ok so i just pulled off a piece of drywall, lol not really all i did was look at my breaker box. and guess what, theres a breaker that looks like it has 2 switches in one on it. it says 240/120/ so i flipped it and guess what happened. a fucking air conditioner came on thats like 15 ft away from my grow area. i turned the breaker back off and then guess what. i pulled out the plug and the plug to my ballest acually fit. i was like holy shit im the man. well this ballast i have never even plugged in so when i plugged it all in/without the bulb cuz i dont have a 600 watt bulb yet. the fan thats in the ballast came on but it was only on for a second then it shut off and about every 30 seconds it would turn on for like just a second and turn off. is this normal with ballasts that have fans in them or does it automatically detect heat and cool accordingly? one more question. im gonna need to go get a longer 240v cord thats about 20 ft long so that i can stretch the light to my grow area will that minimize the power that i get to my light?

thats hella cool you found that circuit close by..
So for best results you dont wanna go longer than 15' on your mogul cord (cord from ballast to lamp), but you can always rig up a 240v extention cord for about $10.
and that sounds like normal opperation on your ballast wont know for sure till you get the lamp installed tho.

ok cool. i just didnt know cuz i have never used a ballast with a fan in it. nah i was planning on extending the 240v cord but keeping the 10ft mogul i have. im makin another vid tomorrow. a shorter one i promise lol and ill show you more about my situation. thanks brother and 1 more thing. should i call an electric place and get them to make me a cord or should i just rig one up myself?
