I need to sweep up in there, I was surprised by the speed of germination, so I was a day or two behind in finishing the room. That weird looking light is a 175w MH that I used to use with a marine reef aquarium. I got tired of all the algae and other issues (read:work) that went with the reef so I switched to just marine fish, so I have these 2 175w MH pendant lights and tons of bulbs so I'm just going to use them for now. One of the ballasts is bad, but I'm going to try to order a replacement today, so I should be able to veg under 350w.

My plan is to pick up a 400w hps for flowering cheap on eBay. If I got that light early would it screw things up to use it 24-7 too?

I can easily increase the temp in the room, but I read somewhere that a lower temp the first few days encourages female development. I'll probably crank it up tomorrow or the next day.

BTW, 7 of the 8 little sprouts are about 1" to 1&1/2" high right now, and those pics were taken yesterday. I'll take more in an hour or so.

Enjoy!
