I guess I set my goal too high ?
Im worried to keep my temp down around 60-70 since there has been many busts lately. As for the lights, I am in search of a 500w MH and a 500w HPS.

Joel, I have the same meter!!!
It is so EASY I feel like a cheater!!!
: )
Hahaha garden.
I wish I could have that , but its a bit too pricy. Possibly further down the line :)
Anyone got any suggestions on how I could improove the bud growth on my plants?
bigger lights, bigger buds...I will post a thread this weekend with the directions for bubbler...it is for a cloning project that I have successfully completed, so to speak, but I showed how I put the system together, for all of you who don't have one... :thumbsup:
meanwhile here is a shopping list, for each bubbler you want: 1st from wally's...
1-10 gallon/17qt. sterlite tote, as dark a color as possible...$3.50
1 aqua source dual airpump...$8.00
2 airstones or 5" bubble rails...$.88 or $3.00
and you might want one of those floating aquarium thermometers...about a buck
black plastic spray paint or duct tape black/2 wraps-gray/3 wraps to light-proof your res. $ 10.00 This keeps algae growth to a minimum...
tube of aquarium sealant(optional $5.00):confused:
Now at hopot, you need;
black 1/4" airline...you might be able to find this in garden section of wally's with a sprinkler or drip system starter kit.$5-7.00
common plastic sink drain(optional):confused: found in kitchen area, not plumbing. $5.00
from hydro supply you need; 12 netpots $5-7.00...hydroton $10.00...and a nutrient...I recommend AN or GH 3- part...about 25 bucks for the set, although there are good 1 part and 2 part programs out there...and liquid karma for all-in-one additive(optional) $20.00 a qt. or superthrive.. want to try AN's Iguana juice grow/bloom 1 part from Advanced Nutrients when I get the extra cash...I'll check back later and see if you have any more question's about this...lw :smokin:
Latewood , Im pretty sure there isnt a hydro shop in the town I live in, any good site recommondation?
Btw , looking forward to your thread!
Depending on which coast or border you live nearest has something to do with my recommendation. :) And, Remember...BE DISCREET don't put the store clerks at risk or yourself...Do Not say the 'M' word!!! :cool: they do not want to know that they are participating in a conspiracy with you to grow that schtuff that has to do with the 'M' word. :p with that said.
Cali...
Green Coast hydro/gchydro is great...good people, have had a few discussions about Advanced Nutrients, they are AN experts. Funny thing though. they are the ones that told me to use Liquid Karma, instead of B-52. that's another story. Mike is one of my mates there
Bghydro for light ballasts and electrical wiring advice...I bought my 1000w
ballast, mogul base, from them and they walked me through wiring it. :thumbsup: (Actually, it is real easy to do, once you have the ballast in front of you)...I did a step-by-step that Zandor put in growfaqs; thanks to them...Dave I think, from S. Africa helped me out
Up north...Growco/4hydroponics.com great people and service and prices...
They do not carry Advanced Nutrients (old school store)...But, they have the best hydro supply catalog I've ever seen and will send you one with your order
They have ...EVVVEERRRRYYYYthing...it's like the old sears christmas catalog.
the cool thing about growco is that the catalog allows you to visualize what you are always reading about in these forums...for instance, If Zandor says...Well I use a greenair controller...such and such...then you look it up, find a picture, a description of what it does, and a price! you learn something and get a picture of it in your head, now you can plan ahead to your system and room design....whheeeewwwww, I'm :stoned: long winded/fingered
I buy my lamps...hortilux, sunmaster from Jay...up there...If Jay had advanced
nutes, I would probably buy everything from him.
I pretty much buy from these 3 hydro dealers or I find things like my new 6' light mover on ebay...I have found alot of my AN additives on ebay...
My nute regimen would cost about 200 bucks to start-up in qts./liters
but I have found some great deals...like calmag and B-52 both bottles under 20 bucks...that's over 1/2 off...I got my voodoo juice for about 25 bucks and it sells for 70 bucks...hope this helps.lw :smokin:
Hey latewood
Awesome information man, will check it out. I did some research on the lighting from bghydro and I have decided to go the extra length to get the 1000w HPS sunmaster cool.
http://www.bghydro.com/BGH/customkit...=HLHPS10SC&eq=
I have decided to pick up some Mylar sheeting to put up along my grow room walls from 4hydroponics.com
http://4hydroponics.com/grow_room/mylar.asp
As for my odor control I plan on TRYING to get enough money to get this air purifyer.

Yes it did help latewood, all of your info helps :rasta:
Stuff looks good...I took the liberty of clicking on the hortilux bulb upgrade, so you could look at it...that is what Z uses 2-3 of them...and I've had one now for about 6 weeks...you definitely see a difference in your produce with that 1000w eye hortilux. It has the enhanced blue spectrum, so it is better for veg than the standard bulb, and you can use it all the way thru.lwQuote:
