250 Watt HPS

Well I leave my window open all day, and my closet doesnt close all the way - its left open about a centimetre, so thats enough ventilation. Plant growth doesnt seem to be stunted in any way either.
You dont really need the long tube florescents (the kind youll see in a fish tank) you just need a few 'energy saver' bulbs, which are the spiral kind. Fit a few E40 fittings in there to screw the bulbs in, and when your plant starts budding, add the CFL's for sidelighting, which will make the buds a little bigger and more compact aswell - oh, and more potent.

Add some Fluros to a 250w HPS and you will be AMAZED.

Also, most people I've seen use 250watters grow their plants to the standard 12 inches or so. They dont seem to have a problem with popcorns buds...specially if you use fluros and some LST training.

But whatever works.... :D

Yeah I was thinking of doing exactly that. This site rocks
Thank you for all your help.

SWIZZY... you will still need a fan or some ventilation... something to move the air... a crack in the door will not cut it...

Remembering the past is more psychotic then forgetting your name..

I thought theyd be ok with the closet open a centimetre or so? Meh, nevermind, theyre all going outside now so Ive got 6 months to save up for a fan. I think thats long enough somehow, even with my broke ass.

As much as I despise politicians and the laws the police have to enforce, for you personal safety, i ask you to reconsider using anything that gives away your identity.

If you're cool with it, then go on ahead! :)

I was kind of worried about that krusty, but can anything really be done with just a first name and alias on cannabis.com? And also I've seen many people on here with legal jargon in their signatures. Does that provide any help if something were actually to arise from this site?
Thanks

Fuck it.

My full name is THOMAS MARK SWIERZBINSKI, and mods, I ask you NOT to delete this. I see it as standing up to the law, and although its not the cleverest thing in the world to do, its a small step towards legalisation - and in the world of cannabis, any step is a big step.
