Hi All, So.. after lots of reading I am thinking I am more confused I have my tent setup, I have a Veg\Flower light setup sorted. What I dont have figured out is CFL or Fluro light for kicking off the seeds. So reading showed 80W CFL is a good start, but the holder of such a bulb and the wiring in the reading sorted read dodgy. Fluro is ok - a smaller size however perhaps like this but not sure if it will cut it for 3 seeds to kick off? http://www.bunnings.com.au/light-fluoro-batten-crompton-1x60w-flex-plug-box-24407_p7076787 This is to just carry to seedling to the point of putting it under a HPS Ta in advance!

Hi all, I'm looking for a new ballast / lighting setup and noticed a few shops are now stocking the Hi-PAR ballasts. I can't find much info/ reviews about them. I'm more interested in the Hi-Par 315w LEC Digital Ballast (http://www.stealth-garden.com/product/lighting/hi-par-315w-l-e-c-ballast/) to go with the Phillips 315 CMH lamp. Is anyone using this setup? if so I would love to hear some feedback regarding it. Alternatively if you are using a similar ballast with this lamp or could recommend one, I would be interested in hearing about it to. Cheers.

So i was browsing the 400w hps lamps on hydroexperts.com and found this bulb for $49. Now from everything I've read, solistec are supposed to be top notch in the lighting world. Check out the page for easy reference: http://www.hydroexperts.com.au/horticultural-lighting/lamp/240v-hps-lamp/ Heres the thing: There's a Super HPS 400w bulb, which is the cheapest on there and i think is the equivalent of a growlush quality bulb at $35..... Powerplant bulb for $60 Son-T at $59 Gavita enhanced $66 GE Lucagrow $70 And then the SolisTek HPS for only $50? I realize that this bulb is made for digital ballast in mind and this is why i thought it was cheaper at firs…

Has anyone tried any of the CO2 Emitter like 'the green pad' and similar that are on the market. I've previously used the old sugar and yeast and looking for something a bit better and easier to use. Have seen some that last for eight months so they say, but others that last a few week? Hope someone can help out

Hi dudes I have this grow closet constructed. Dimensions are 1.95m H x 0.93m W x 0.83m D I have put a 4" Ezi Air fan inlet at the bottom and 4" Ezi Air fan outlet at the top and also a bathroom extraction fan for more extraction but when I use a 400MH the temps can rise to 35C. Obviously the summer temps aren't helping with the grow box inlet and outlet being directed into the garage but what I need to know is: 1) Where should the light sit in the box? Should the hood be at the top of the box with the plant sitting on something higher then lower as the plant grows or should the plant be on the floor with the light being lower and raised as the plant grows? Wouldn't it b…

as the title suggests I need some help! And no not with someone to love (hmmm maybe some Beatles fans somewhere ) The facts: First time properly growing indoors , using soil under light (of course ), strain unknown as from bag seed ( fantastic seed laden bud, removed the seeds and the smoke was unbelievable so my thinking being that if it didn't have to expend its energy making seeds then the smoke should be even better? ) Makes sense to me Planted 8 seeds (seeds were over a year since being found and had been through multiple extreme temps.... Whether that would make any difference) 5 sprouted , one I just planted in the garden and it's only 2 inches high and unknown se…
