the hand trick works to a point but with young plants and 1k lights the probs come from light intensity. think of it more as a sunburn than a "heat" burn. i use cool tubes and extra cool air for the air intake in a open loop system so i can hold my hand on the tube itself without burning the...

i keep my room temps in the 80s most the time unless im adding co2. when i add the co2 i up the temps to the mid to high 90s. i dont know if it is the added co2 or the higher temps, i think its a combo of the 2. adding co2 didnt do much for me without haveing the temps high. and like wise the...

soil is cool too bud. i just like hydro cuz i can see more info per grow. i used dirt and dirt only for more than a decade, and still do every now and then. 4k in lights would be alil bit on the pricey side, but i dont run them all at once. i use just 1 digi mh/hps for flowering and a hand...

i use added uvb lights along with my 1000w HPS. IMHO 2x10watters isnt near enough. i use 2x100watt long tube floros (tanning bed bulbs). i have to start them slow but by the end the uv lights can stay on 6 hours a day and not sun burn the plants at all.
