g'day all been trying to find a soultion to increase humidty in a grow room that has a/c running, as the a/c sucks out the water in the air, causing the humidy to drop below 40RH, I like to maintain it at 70RH. - less stress on plants dont want to use steam dont want to use ultra-sonics but found a really good ozzie company www.condair.com.au - that uses high pressure water jets technology that looks very interesting. check out there products - they look really good, they even have really good control gear to automate the process.

hey im just wondering what would be the best kind of power board to use when growing in a wardrobe using a 400watt hps and 2 fans??? hasnt over loaded or anything yet, but im just concerned when it comes to storms :thumbdown for example, today it started hailing out of the blue, melted in 5 mins and stopped raining in 20 but there was a fair bit of thunder and lightning going which worried me....is easy to blow globes and start fires if your not carefull :thumbdown basically what im after is a power board that when its over loaded with power, shuts off for like 15 mins and has the ability to kill the connection before any damage can be done.....is that even possib…

Hi All, I am a first time grower & poster.....great site btw. I want to do an indoor grow in soil and try and keep it as "organic" as possible. I am thinking of getting a 400w Sontagrow, growing in my garage & have a few questions: 1. Light: from what I can see this is a good light to use for both veg & flowering....is this true? 2. What is the ideal area/number of plants that can be grown under this light? 3. Ventalation: is it enough if i recycle air to the grow room from the air in the garage or do I need some intake from outside? 4. Nutes: I would like to use a natural fert. like blood & bone, how often should I apply it and what suplimenta…

HI ALL: I forgot to ask about the ph of perlite vermiculite 60-40 mix, im in 24 qt. sq.pots, do I use soil or hydro ph. levels? And when do I start to feed them and about what strength, I thought 400-500 would be a good start for the first week. They are under 400w mh. room temp 73-80 RH 48-55, the plants are Snow white, and Crystalberry. I really need these to go as they will be my mothers. and btw. im using seed grow. If you need more let me know. :whistling Back to my bowl.

Hi all, I have a fellow grower out here whom I'm assisting, and they're allowing me to post a few pics of the setup and plants as they grow, to show off here. They're very shy, and don't wish to post it themselves, so I have graciously agreed to help out. Anyway, from now on, let's refer to this person as... oh, I don't know... say, Leia... That'll do. Anyway, young Leia is strong with the force, and is just beginning this grow, which you'll hopefully see fairly regular updates on. Here's the first pic, a general overview of the room, with pots and plants displayed. I'm not certain as to which plants are which strain, when I next have a word with Leia I'll get th…

Hey all, im running a few CF(100w)'s off a 600 watt 240v inverter, the inverter is powerd by 2 x 50 WATT solar panels(12v 10amps each). Im wondering is it possible to run a few HPS's(say 2x 600 w) off the inverter or doesnt it have enough power. ie 600 watt HPS on a 600 watt inverter would use 600 watts of power.. :angry: The electricty isnt the cleanest either its quite variable ranging from 10v to 13.6v constantly so that might blow the globe, pehaps i should mod a few things for cleaner power. Anyway can any1 help me out here kinda stuck if i want to go more into hydro or not than bush. Im trying to find a cheap alternative to get rid of the fat power bi…
