Thanks WT... its an honor to finally have you here. Took a run to Home Depot. Bought 2 lamps to start. Will see how the temps do, then I'll see if I wanna add those Ys.

Here's some pics. Nice to have some white light offsetting the Procyon. Got a 2 x 2700k 23w (6$ for a 2 pack) and a 5500k 26w (6$ each) light. Gonna grab another 26w 5500k when I get a chance and then I can run those 2 during veg and the 2 2700ks during flower.

Ran them for 30 mins and the CFLs were still cool enough to touch. Plants just went sleepy but I'll check them around 9 tonite (lights go on at 7) to see.

I also realized 2 things:
1. adding the circulating fan prolly created a bit of a crosswind, and my exhaust fan is turned down real low (small space, dont really need more than like 75 CFM according to my calcs
2. I had a bunch of fiberglass insulation sitting on top of my growhut (was too lazy to move it to another room lol)

I moved the insulation, which should let more hot air escape out the top. I'm thinking of putting the circulating fan on a timer and turning it off for 30 mins like 4 or 5 times during the light cycle. Good idea anyone thinks?

Updated pics are attached.

First Grow: Jack the Ripper under a Procyon Hi all, I've been visiting the boards for close to a year now, quietly soaking up knowledge as best i can. ;) The last 2 or 3 months I've been doing my research and a week ago, I finally jumped in and planted my first 8 seeds. I'm growing TGA's Jack the Ripper from Hemp Depot (mad props to HD, I was amazed at the ingenuity of how the seeds were packed lol). I ordered 10, and having never ordered seeds before, managed to lose 2 just by trying to find them in the packaging... I sowed 8 Rating: 5
