I just purchased a new 1000w CMH light, the ballast says 240v only. I went out and bought a nema 6-20 receptacle and a double pole 240 and some 14/2 wire. I ran and mounted the receptacle 6 feet away from the panel, hooked up the two hot lines on each pole on the 20 amp breaker and grounded the...

Greetings riu! I'm adding a 5' x 5' tent to my area, looking for advice on how best to light it up. I need relatively low heat of LED, but also want to take advantage of the UV and other benefits of ceramic metal halide. Buildasoil has a combo deal with a 315w CMH + (4) x 100w COB fixtures...

Hello all, It is my first time growing in about 8 years and I was able to but a more complete grow room setup than I previously had. But as we all know mo' money, mo' problems. I have a veg and flower area set up and I am currently using my 315w CMH as my veg light and a "1200w" equivalent...

So I'm using a grow tent now. Figured I'd give that a try. However, before I make my switch into the tent I'd want it set up properly. Trying to decide. For air intake and outake if I need a 4",6" or 8". I got a good size dehumidifier, I'll be getting a carbon filter soon enough. I go t some...

Don't think we have a dedicated thread for these lights so I thought I'd start one I'm running the Hi-Par and am very happy so far. Anyone else running a 630W DE CMH?

The leaves are all droopy and yellowing followed by brown spots on the leaves. This happens when the introduction of the CMH happens. Switching fully to CMH but want to know how to remedy. This has happened on the last 3 runs. Even though the plants look like crap they still finish better than...

Hello everyone, I was just curious if anyone around RIU knew how many watts of CMH lighting per square foot is ideal? I am starting up a new, quite small vegging tent and am curious if a single 315w CMH fixture will be adequate. The tent size is 2ft x 4ft x 5 ft tall. Appreciate any and all...

I am looking for input from growers that have switched from old school HPS and Metal Halide to LED and CMH. So I have had my veg room running for sometime and it was all dialed in. I haven't changed anything EXCEPT for the lighting. When I changed lights I measured light intensity at the...

So I’m need of some help with choosing LED equipment. (I have no clue where to start). For starters I currently run 2x gavita 750de 2x dimlux 630de in a 2.4m2 tent. I want an led fixture that can replace the two gavita lights so around 1500w min. I’m normally quite good with researching...

This is the start of my 2nd grow with my CMH light. I have 7 Wedding Cakes, 6 Purple Punchs, 1 Peyote Critical, 1 Blue Gelato 41, and 1 Cheese that have been germinating for 2 days. They have all opened up and I'll be setting them in 1.5x1.5x1.5 rockwool cubes. I will do my best to log my grow...

I've been outdoor growing for a couple year. But now that legalization has come into effect here in canada I'm shifting to indoor. I have a 39x39 tent I was originally planning on just tossing in 315cmh and calling it good which would cost me less the $350 to light. But the more time I spend...
