I feel these are going too slow?

Depends on the volume your diluting into and how fertile that is I guess.

I was going to put 2 bags with 250kg of soil.

Reading lots on hydro, but cracking a northern lights n be a soil grow, also pulled pin on 600w digital ballast hps.

Will keep the poor ones going till they give up or I do.

Hmmmm ok cancel that, they can't supply currently, bugger, shall still hold out on this, was only gonna go 250, but magnetic is old school, n 600 dimmable, so dim on seedlings n ramp up later.

I must be getting old cause i still use a 600 hps magnetic ballast

250kg of soil would pot up about 8 big plants and about 20 autos same as this year.

G'day OMD

I'm still learning bud, but do know electronics.

Nothing actually wrong with magnetic, just they run much hotter.

Digital much cooler and usually dimmable option and again usually super lumens where it will run your lamp at 110% should you wish that boost.

Might as well embrace technology.

(However seems to be a big shortage on 600w lamps currently)

[billygoat]

that's a pretty small percentage Porky, 

 

maybe go half/half ?

IMO, seedlings are like babies, they need to be nurtured, not beaten into submission.

Using HID on seedlings, even when dimmed, is like taking a baseball bat to a child

Personally I raise my seedlings with a fluoro, gentle. Then once established put them under HPS

I run 4x600 mag once full established

[micmac]

Yep,I use 108w led for my clones n seedlings

I'm surprised how good a job it does

Nice little light,goes through a cycle from blurple to a blueish colour then back to blurple n so on

Then straight under 600w hps,I run 2 then put in a 3rd with about 3 weeks to go
