Hello there I just have two questions. Has anyone ever flowered with a 1000w MH Sylvania globe OR a 1000w MH Sunmaster globe (Neutral spectrum only)? I can still get solid buds right? And is there a difference between the Sylvania brand 1000w MH Neutral spectrum and the Sunmaster 1000w MH Neutral spectrum globes? Apart from about $15 is there any other difference?

Hi all how many lights can i run before i need a light management unit? my 2x 400watt HPS are blowing a HPM heavy duty timer so that sort of answers my question but i was using the same kind of timer on a 1000watter last time round with no worries?? surely i dont need a LMU for 2x 400's, the HPM timer is designed for spa/pool motors,heaters etc and should handle 10A:scratchin: thinkin of maybe adding another 400 later on so a LMU might be the go, but what about a heavy duty timer for each light, could stagger the start ups that way? would be much cheaper that way, any advantages a LMU has? What are you guys using for multiple lights ?

Hi there AM looking for a 150 W HPS ballast and bulb. Any clues? And yes, it is a 150W I'm after. Not a 250W. If in doubt that you can grow some dense buds in a micro grow, have a look at this thread.

Hi all. I've got a 26 cubic metre granny-flat grow room, split into 2 - both will be flowering rooms, with mother and veg room separate. What I was wondering is would an appropriately sized centrifugal fan attached to a carbon filter, running 24/7, be suitable for reducing temps, as well as removing odour, or would a better option be to install an a/c unit and get a different (smaller?) fan and carbon filter for cooling and smell? If a/c is the way to go, what sort of fan should be used for the carbon filter then - should it be centrifugal or can an inline or axial be used? I'm sure I'd be able to find a couple of second-hand a/c's for not much more than a centrifugal f…

Hey I was talking with a mate and he was telling me about these lights you hang near the base to get some light to the lower plant when in flower and they dont put off any heat. Has anyone seen such a light and where would i get one? Cheers

Hey guys, I have a 250 watt Metal Halide Light in my room, my plants are in veg but i have ran out of room to move my light up in my cupboard, so the plants are getting a bit close to the light dont want them to bbq. So my question is if i get a 250HPS is the heat that comes off them much less? or is there a better way to deflect the heat? thanks.
