Well this is my first grow and this morning I had 4 new smiling faces lookin up at me.
My room consists of 1-400W MH and 1-400W HPS. Temp is at 27 C and humidity is at a consistant 40%. Lamps positioned 22-26 inches above the babies and the area is surrounded in foil. Any suggestions?
I'd pass cigars but I don't know whether to get "It's a boy or It's a girl".....Happy smokin and growin!!! :D

Have a good one...Torog :D
I've got the fan set up but not going yet. 27C is about 80 F. I've heard that about foil but in most of the pics in the forum it shows people using foil. Is this because of a lower wattage situation?

Howdy Psycho4Bud,
Lol..I got confused as to which post I was answering..if I said anything that doesn't make sense..now you know why..lol. I tried editing,and got some changed-but ran out of time..dang it. When you're using hid light,the intensity is such,that it can bounce off foil and burn the plants..I even had it happen with a 70w hps..so just be careful.
Thanks much!!! Foil is history as of tonight. I'll replace it with some plywood painted flat white. :)
That would be most excellent ! :D With the lights ya got..you can't help but do good !Quote:

I think that you should git some more experience with the NL's first,and tweak your growroom set-up more..so that you can control temps,humidity etc,more precisely.
Have a good one....:D
Dang--forgot to add..you need to figure out what kind of high that ya like..so that you can figure out what strain ya want.
