Fuck man I can smell that shit over here :)
Yeh I luv hps and would never not use it,I'm thinking of buying a 1000w hps for my next grow and having a veg room of LEDs and propagation lights of 6400k so I always have something year round ya know :weed: ..I like the LEDs but a room the size I'm planing on will be pricey so a mix up is what I think il embark on.. I was hoping 2 ufo LEDs would be ok but il need 4 or 5 for the walk in robe I'm converting my veg room into plus a small clone area as I want to start trying that in the near future.

have you looked into induction lighting its a self ballasted flouro type bulb on par with hps pretty much
its the new thing
the trick is to find a retro-fit for a hps then all you need is the socket from a hps and like a conical reflector


but honestly some big t5 ho's a couple panels and have them fixed at different heights and just move the plants down the assembly line so to speak as they get larger

ive been wanting to try those @ orange
the one i linked is a big light size and watts
really all you need is something reflective to mount the bulb too and to hold the ballast and a whip/chord with a plug on the end

They defo look like a try,the 400 watter would b nice and looks fairly easy to setup.
Not much going on with the girls they are on day 4 since they pop'd and looking alot better then my first run. Only drama I have is I brought a new ph tester today as mine broke so I got a probe ph tester and it was reading the hi end of 6.8 as opposed to the one that just broke which was 6.4. Do I just add sulphur to my soil now to drop it or is ph ok?

I use only bottled water or filtered water thats usually around 6.2-6.5. Ran out of gear I was using to ph run off and both stores won't have it til mid week earliest so i only have ph probe to check levels. I went and got a small bag of sulphur in case I need it but I won't do anything until I get new ph testers. If you don't mind me asking what do you use to ph your run off tek?

Ok. Your pic uploads always look healthy. Do you use tap water after letting chlorine out or any special ways you water?. I never used ph'd water once outside on my grows and they were always good but when I started indoors I got caught up in the hype of bad ph for your plants so I started always having a ph of 6.2-6.5 and they were always happy but when i saw a hi yesterday of 6.8 almost a 6.9 i kinda freaked a bit. You not ph ing water using the k.i.s.s method is the same as me not getting ppm's and eec's etc as I have measuring t spoons for nutes and that's all I do along with ph ing water. So would you say leave her as she is or do something if I notice yellowing,slow growth or anything related to ph problems.
Here they are at 4 days. Sooo much better then last ones.

i just use some dolomite before hand
most people aim for 6.5-6.8 ph its still some what optimal at the moment my soil usually get's a lower ph towards flower

Are those 3 for auto seeds are they?...6.8 for flower shouldn't be hard as it nearly there lol..I've just planted a barneys farm pineapple chunk and ran out of perlite aswell it sux and feels heavy as shit soil even when dry but can get away with it as its not a auto and When she gets to around 6 weeks I want to start cloning her to start on that path and save on coin as I just spent big at herbies and would like to save my reserva privada gear koz at 105$ au for 6 seeds I don't wana fk up so will start on barneys gear :) .have you used that colloidal silver to make all clones fems?

yes on the CS
the only successful self pollination ive had was in a premeasured kit i think it was gibb but i may be wrong when i tried gibb lately it was a mess
the CS is not determined at this point i think it worked out keeping my fingers crossed that the pollen sacks i harvested are viable
