1500 or 150w?

[vostok]

Look at some of my journals. My grows are going to expand these are my starting sizes

IMO start the right way and really save that cash imo get a 600w or equivalent light and a 4x4 foots tent the rest is easy

I forgot to mention also other members here thats it is totally illegal to use a metal halide light with out any safety glass over the lens

between you and me its just so fucking dangerous you be picking glass outta your face for years but how with no eyes left ,lol

Well some of us might have a disability and not have that kind of money. I'm doing the best with what I can afford.

I'm getting the 600w dimmable Vivosun ballast. It was only 20 bucks more than the Chinese one. I did order a 150 watt MH bulb for the ballast I have now. I can use it to start my next round of seedlings

The OG has an interesting and common mutation. 1 side of the plant, at node 2 has produced a 4 set instead of 3.

I think it's interesting mutation i'm sure she'll be just fine.

Ya. They are bag seeds. Grow one produced some really good looking plants even though they were only a little more than a foot tall and I only got seven grams. Lesson learned. Use bigger pots. But this time I have consistency and all of the learning you guys have helped me with. My second grow is already going way better. Thanks all for the help

It's doing a good job on veg with a MH bulb. I can keep it 9 in away from the plants and the temperature at 78.
12000 lumens in an 18 x 36 space.
