What I mean is is exactly that. MJ needs a little 700nm (near infrared)during flowering to produce lots of big buds. The 700nm as well as photoperiod both help production of the chemical transmitters that help the plant bud. Light energy between 580nm(yellow/green) and 630nm(orange) also are...

It looks like in my absence the debate has gotten ugly on both sides. Everyone stop take a breath then smoke a bowl and while you are at it take a hit for me (since i can not right now). This site is not about belittling others and pushing their buttons. It is for trading information and...

They don't think it was MJ that caused the problem. I live in a medically legal state so off the record I told my doctors that I do smoke MJ, so that they had all of the facts. They do not think it is the cause, they do not know the cause, but believe it to be some type of bacteria. Due to my...

Just a quick update for everyone. My grow died. I fell ill just before Thanksgiving and little by little it grew worse. I barely had enough energy to go to work and keep my girls watered. It got to the point that I finally decided to go see a doctor and was immediately hospitalized. It turns...

That's me on a bad month.

An Edison socket is a standard light bulb socket. Anything that uses power makes heat. My 7 watt LED spotlight gets warm. The cooling fins won't burn you but I wouldn't want to keep my finger on it forever. As for a ratio your guess is as good as mine. I would go 3 minimum and as many as you can...

H is for Hydro cooled Vaporizors

Don't worry about underneath the plant just line your floor with Mylar or white plastic and the plants well get plenty of under lighting. You don't want to much anyway not a natural or extremely beneficial thing for a plant to have the sun under it instead of above it..

I've been playing with LEDs since late last year. :rant: I've tried the PAR 38 style with the Ultrabright 5mm LEDs, they were even custom made. Not enough juice and the wrong color. :rant: I have a 7 watt Warm White LED spot. Does really good for one small plant. It puts out 1500 foot...

Yeah the truth behind the $20 HPS is the ballast is a cheap inefficient POS. It is a 150 watt light that takes 384 watts to light. If I had it to do over again I would buy a 400 watt digital ballast HPS instead of the 2 150 watters.

Neither will do much for MJ. Checkout this sticky. It will answer a bizillion questions you are having. http://www.marijuanapassion.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1968

Great idea for a stealth grow room! But do you really need to hide it so much to be worth cutting hole in your floorboards? You can build a grow box easy enough and camouflage it. People use old refrigerators, file cabinets, wardrobes and even old PCs as grow boxes. With a carbon filter the...

Without the ballast an HPS will not light.

Yes you will need a ballast. The ballast takes the voltage from the wall and increases it. HID bulbs run at a much higher voltage than an incandescent bulb. Even CFLs use a ballast but it is inside the base of the bulb. HIDs due to the heat created by the bulb and the ballast usually are kept...

Up date time. Sorry for the delay in putting anything up. My day job has been real busy leaving little time to much more the keep my babies alive and smoke some when I get home. I'm down to 5 plants now discovered a male yesterday. I also discovered a female as well. She is already showing a...

If is it doing absolutely nothing not even a slight glow for a few seconds then you more likely have a problem with loose or corroded connections. Since you have been packing it around for a few years the other possibility is that the filament on the bulb has broke from the wear and tear of...

The plants are doing good I've been busy and haven't had time to do pictures will put a few up later today. I am going to switch to using two of the $20 HPS lights to flower on this run. After discussing and doing some testing on my LED board with a close family member I have discovered that I...

Try These 2 First Second I've done business with both, they are reputable.

Their are plenty of places to get ballasts the problem is a good one is going to cost you more than 4 times the price of the light. :)
