its papaya, az for the perlite i tottally forgot was in abit of a mad rush had to catch the shop b4 it closed.i just got the babys settled back in place with the lights nice and tight between them and gave them a little water.
starting to feel like a bit of a failier but i no ill learn from my mistakes.i have my eye on HYDROPONICS GROW LIGHT AND VENTING SYSTEM, on ebay.and the guy only lives 10minutes away but he wont sell it till the end of the auction and thats end of xt week
400watt lamp blue and red spectrum looks pretty cool hope i win it.
could you reccomend 1? think im gonna scarp these strips reading alot of poor comments about them.
i can spend around £100 ie around$170 on a light and ballest
peace out one love...

Just to clarify, do you mean "paraffin"? This look like a pretty neat way to give both heat and CO2; however, it doesn't look like the most complex thing to make... Do you think you could take some closer pictures of exactly how it works or show diagrams to aid me in building one? It just runs off of something like sterno type wax, right? I could start a build thread too and include everything...
Do you have any newer shots of the girls?

are you opening a thread? pretty cool if you do

what exactly to you meen by hydroponics light? from what you said about blue spectrum i am assuming metal halide. i would go with hps instead it is much better for flowering. or check out this place for multispectrum systems. they are the best deal around. hemp kat over at og uses them with excellent results

i use 4 ft flouros in my vegg room and love them you just have to have enough and use them right. check out what i can grow under them. you should use the flouros for veg and hps for flower. mh is also good for veg, although much more powerful it is hotter and costs more to run. you don't need to scrap the flouros just get a few more and use the right tubes. my favorite flouro tubes for veg are these. they kick ass as you can tell from my plants.
