Thanks DD. I don't want to paint the corner but will tape up some foil soon.
I will take both tour, and @danishoes21 and lower the fluos. I can look for some stroner wattage but this is only for a few weeks. I plan on putting the smaller on in the corner into the flower space 2 -3 weeks before the other 2 and will put the clones under the 125W in its stead. When I do put the bigger 2 into flower, we wil be well past the solstice and I will put the smaller one outside in the back.
Hopefully, it will be into flower well enough to handle the temporary increase in light. I can place it so it stays dusk and dawn in the shade.

Thanks for the advice, you two. Hope you had a pleasant day as I did kayaking with my eldest daughter.

sounds like a game plan for disaster!!!!! just put em outside now..

u need a grow tent and a big wattage light .. i love cmh 315 will do a small plant and u can add on too
3k bulb u want the red bloom.. 4k bulb for veg but 3k will do .. cheap to start but the bulb get replaced after a good yr.. cheers.. ps the 630 would be good too

READY for the big tent and 7 gallon smart pot..

2 x 24 watt tubes ho.. 2 inches above is high 1 inch better.. i want these plants to grow slowly too
till im ready to go to the big tent ..

my lights are maybe 16 inches above canopy with alot more power Scottie .. in the big tent with lots of ventilation
watch the heat watch the plants react go close as you can but not burning the leaves back off if you do.. ok to
burn a few plants learning just a little.. lol dun it myself.. you can be a farther away in veg but
get really close for buds with out burning .. gives u rock hard dense buds..

Scottie i need more power now !!!!!!!

you can not grow good weed with out more power really.. u want 40 to 50 watts per sq ft ...

I like the passion you put in to it bro!

these pics have different look from the lights top pic is only the leds on 315 x 2 the bottom pic is with the 2 leds and 1
630w cmh double ended fixture.. puts out massive light spectrum cri of 90ish.. almost the sun .. but very hot..
so thats 1260 watts in a 5x5 50 watts per sq ft.. buds hard rock hard .. So Scotty your da man to get us more power
you kinda have to save to yourself am i serious about growing indoors or not !!!!! if so need to upgrade and invest imho.
then u been super pot head like me stone all day long and get the munchies ... do a better job and not burning my canopy too .. practice..

might point out im only running my 630 cmh for 10 hrs a day while the leds run 12 to give like a warm up and cool down like a day .. just playing with this idea my last grow and this one.. seems to be good results i am bias ..

"SUPER POT HEAD" I resemble that remark. I came to the conclusion alongtime ago that the best buds are the ones i grow myself. Kind of like my own terroir ( even if they suck). DD, I have the same temp and hygrometer in my room, first one i ever got! Digital one i go to now but the old one still occupies preferential space! CMH is working for you! I'm taking down the led soon and gearing for HPS ............ I miss old school terrior.

Just rearranged my clone and veg room. Plants got too big for veg closet so I am using 2- 32 watt fluorescents for the clones and using my 125 watt for my smallest. Do you guys think that 18 inches is too high for the fluos? I'm kinda inclined to lower them a little.

thats a mistake in my opinion hps over cmh.. 50% more PAR from the same power .. hence u get more and
better buds... ive had the 1000 watt hps .. my 630watt cmh grows more and better buds..

im thinking about trying out a 1000 watt cmh .. lots of heat..

 

[Odjob]

Big mistake would be buy more stuff when I've got ballasts and bulbs already. I'm holding off and seeing what the future brings. No problem the heat gain in winter.

Okey-dokey! Will put the little one out-side and put the clones back under the 125W.
Thanks.

LMFAO DD! 2 years ago, I had 1 x 100watt vivosun, added another last year.
This year, since joining 420, I added a 125 Watt and a 300 watt for my 2 plant flower space. I also spent a small fortune on all the shit I didn't have before knowing you dudes.
Not quite sure what CMH and HPS means and never tried a bulb. They seem to be quite hot for the summer. My newest experiment in lighting is following @Bill284 method and have extra white LED 24/7 during veg.
In conclusion, my friend DD. A tent would take out my much needed gym space so I have what I have. Clone, veg and flower space. Outside provides me for the year so I now have enough to cure properly.
I still work so my smoking is limited to home ande a few tokes at work if the back gets problematic.

Good looking plants, keep up the good work!

 

[scottreid1966]

are they T 5 ho output lights?

Have no idea, just says 32 watt aquarium and plant light. Tried to get a closer look but got "blinded by the light"!

that why .. you are already set for heat management .. your hps bulb got to be replace and those ballasts dont last for long time.. 1000 w cmh system complete 399 plus tax cad..

and plus no glasses you can see the plants ..

Help a newbie out, will ya?
Good advice is only good....when understood.... n'est-pas?
Cheers!

I've got a few Zero 2 Noctex ballasts and new and near new Eye Hortilux bulbs. I'm waiting for Top Bin leds to get next gen better. That and my leds have to do. My plants are starting to bulk up. All my organic inputs except pro mix. Lots of nitrogen there but they're not using it anymore. I can't wait to get back on chems and coco.

High pressure sodium, and ceramic metal halide.
Old school grow lights. Some guys still use them. In the winter they're ok, they put out a lot of heat.
Require adjustments to your environment if you're used to LEDs and vice versa.
The debate over which is better is like debates over religion or politics. Better left alone.

you tube it

you have alot to learn research light spectrum and light intensity.. the led marketing money will swamp your searches
u got to dig though the crap.. if you like big buds that are rock hard go cmh lighting

cheers..

Hey Oddy, I'm so out of touch with rosin smoking, maybe a bit scared to try it but I just have to know, What are diamonds? Are they the most refined rosin product?

Another great post Dani, I love the Black Widow pheno. you do God's work my friend. Nice to see another breeder working toward perfection.

My weakness pure thc with little else mixed in. Makes me feel like I'm having my 1st puff again! To pricy for me but I reserve it for a treat. You only need a tiny bit............... got me wanting to run into town and pick up a gram already.
