In my opinion. Everything runs fine. But feel free to discuss.

The Upload of the Temps and Humidity Data from the logger will follow this weekend.
Hope I can find a better cam. to get the yellowish out of this pictures.
It really hurts to see such bad pictures of my beautiful babies...

Quick question:

I use a lumatek digital ballast 400W/600W, which has a super lumen option (+10%). I thought this could be used to increase lumen output of the lamp.
Now i read in a thread on another board, that this option should only be used after 2 or 3 runs, to balance the reduction of output lumen of the lamp.
Do u think using the super lumen option with new bulb could break it down ?

What do you think about switching the ballast to 400W for ripening in the last 10 to 14 days ? (which means.. by the End of Week 7)

GB I don't know the answer to your question about the bulb, but I wanted you to know that you inspired me to purchase a TFA - Dostmann Klima Data Logger. It's being shipped from Germany so it's taking forever, but my inner nerd is pretty excited. Day 23 was a pretty exciting time in my grow. Lots of things changing on a daily basis. Your plants are looking really good.

.... but I wanted you to know that you inspired me to purchase a TFA - Dostmann Klima Data Logger.

That's really cool... ;-) Yep, it is produced in Germany, I bought mine here in Austria in a local electric store. Did you get a package with extra sensor stations ?

Waiting long for devilery su**s ;-) I give u antoher nerdy input. Other Nerds - Feel free to discuss...

The Device got - and now hold on chrome - an open collector Hardware Output.

Here is the circuit diagram for you - hope u enjoy:

Think about the possibilities... Really cool Nerd Stuff.
I am glad that I am a girl with electric knowledge. ( i never repented my education.. :-D )

No, mine is one step below the KlimaLogg Pro and it does not have extra sensor stations. I regret that since it's not really that much more money for the models with extra stations...But it will be fun to play with anyway. I might check to see if my model can be upgraded with additional sensors. As for the Hardware Output, what types of output devices are you thinking of connecting?

[GrowBitch2013]

what types of output devices are you thinking of connecting?

Over the Open Collector Output u can control for example humidity.. In my case. I run my outgoing air (LTI) with a transformer (230V/150V/125V/80V). Running it at 125V, but when humidity increases over 60 % than running the LTI with 150V till humidity goes down. U know how I mean ?

Other example.. If humidity drops below 40% (Not in my case, just an example) u could set 40 % to the lower alarm and start a humidifier.

Principle with some extra relays u could build a whole climate control. Not only logging (which is really cool, too).

Day 25 - Flowering now really begins

There is so many changes in the girls camp - I must make an update :-D

Wow, this is so fascinating - thinking about that the girls are searching a male and they produce the hairs to cover the males pollen.
Mmmm... makes me kind of horny *ROFL*

Have a nice Weekend my friends.

[tlranger]

Definitely making themself all pretty and available.

[GrowBitch2013]

I know this is not the best question. But I want to try - let's talk about possible yield :-D

I know it's up to the strain and many other factors... but just beeing woolgathering....

Do u think if everything runs fine - is a crop of 15 oz with my setup and space possible ?
(no commercial interests - just want to know how long marry will stay with me... :rastasmoke::rastasmoke::rastasmoke::rastasmoke

[tlranger]

Ask me again about day 60, might be able to give you a quess, others here are better at that than I.
