I have always assumed that I get my rep from all the newbs I try to help... and a few people rep me for the pictures too...
But I agree that rep in no way identifies a good grower from a not so good one...
I think rep is more of a reflection of how courteous and well liked one is at RIU...
Oh!
And my two cents on the NFT thing..
I like Heath's vert... simple and effective... and to have 86 lollipops to a 600...
They are all a pain to clean though...

Like you just said LB.
I got rep from a guy and this was what he said .... "thanks for the pointers, shotty6868. give back please". ROFL. Give back? Why?

Haha for the most part you are right. Most of the rep i get is for being helpful and posting pretty pictures. However, I've also gotten a ton of rep from the times i've told Bricktop to go fuck himself.
I'll often give people rep for saying funny things, doesn't make them good growers. Alas, its a flawed system, but its the one we have.

Hey guys...I am still growing my moms for my SOG op...and I ran into a little nute burn issue. I potted my cubes and increased the nutes (Flora Nova) to 600 PPM, they stopped growing like hey were bu I though it was due to potting and expected some serious growth shortly after...instead I ened up with yellowing of older growth and yesterday I noticed the very tips were browning/burning. My diagnosis was nute burn...My qestion is regarding the flush. I filled a 5 gallon bucket and submersed the pots in straight tap water set to PH 5.6. I rinsed them a few times and that was my flush...I then pumped out half the nute solution in he res and topped off with straight tap water and reset PH to 5.6. I am still giving a low dose (300PPM) of nutes to th plants, is this ok?

num,num,num......taste like organic homo to me.
well hi there.....nice to see you around.
hey Bugsrnmej hows it going man??? hey Renegade i think you did the right thing ...but personally when i got the feeling of some nute burning i like to take the all water and wash the reservoir and fill up again with flesh water and ppm and ph the water again... the reason is i just dont like to leave any residue from the old water that caused the problem...good luck

Well Son Of A Bitch. I got some seeds planted a few weeks back and they are looking great BTW. Started them under 3 24" dual lamp flouros. They were stretching a bit so I got a 250W MH system from HTG. It lasted a grand total of 9 days. The ballast is really hot and after I flip the breaker it tries to come on but goes for about 30 seconds then gives up. I have to wait til Monday to contact HTG, but I have heard from many people that their customer service is killer so heres hoping. Either way they will be under the poo flouros for at least 5-7 days. Not a huge set back but still a bummer. I just hope the stretch isnt too bad til the new light comes in.
The bad thing is I was about to do some topping. Should I go ahead with the topping anyway? Sorry I dont have pics but they are all about 3"-5" tall with 5-6 pairs of leaves. I was gonna just cut the top pair of leaves off at the main stem. How does that sound?
Thanks

I know that this is going to the simple end but did you give the ballast time to cool before you tried to restart the lights?
Another question .... was the CFL close to the plants? With my T5s I can get them within an inch of two of the tops, of course I check on them throughout the day and have to move the light occasionally.
I have been having problems with ballasts and figured it out that I was starting both 600 HPS lamps at the same time and was not getting enough juice to fire both lights. Now that I have staggered the start times they are both firing up nicely.
Hope this helps.

I let it cool for 2 days and tried again. No go. This 250W light was the only thing running on a dedicated 20A circuit so I am fairly certain it is getting enough juice. I have the 3 2' 2 lamp flouros pretty much touching the tops and on 24/7. Hopefully this will be enough light til I can get a replacement for the 250W. I am going to top them tomorrow when I get home from work.
