After the dismal challenge I replaced my 1000hps with a 630 prizim cmh I installed an auto drain that works lol and I installed a new auto feeder , so I can fertigate 3 times a day . Yesterday I installed the scrog ,that was interesting the plants I started with were 3 to 4 feet tall to begin with so it took awhile to get them all though the net then to wrap but I completed it then I came upstairs and started to deseed the challenge grow will give totals when I'm done still have the dgth to do, anyways my nanday conure decided she liked pot seeds I made the mistake of giving her one so here she is trying to get more crazy birds

Cannabis seeds are a good source of nutrition and oils; I would think they'd be good for the bird. She knows what she likes, and she's helping Daddy!!!
 
oldjarhead100 I'm jealous of your new light brother.
How high have you got it above your plants ?
I think your gonna love your new light,especially on that light mover. Was that hard to do, or did it fit pretty easy.
Have a nice day bro, and y'all stay warm, way up there.
 
it was a breeze I did have to hang a led off of it to weight down one end so it would travel on light mover, Im not sure if my light meter works on cmh bulbs but I used it anyway and hung the light so all plants were getting between 60k and 85k lumins, Daas do you think one finishing bulb will do or should I get 2
 
GoodMorning oldjarhead100, I'm glad to here it was a breeze, I sure wish i had one of those Prisms,no kidn, but we still outlawin down this way, and I would hate to lose it, by accident like when the the water meter reader smelled something or the gas company meter reader, caught a whiff, or even JehovasWitnesses. They come by all the time ,not worried about the mailman,lol,
I was to told what ever my lux meter red,you doubled the number, like if it reads 40lux, it's really 80lux, but i dont know if thats true, but with my 315cmh, at 18inches when flowering, my lux meter would only read 40k lux, so it think it worked right with my light, cause when i move it to like 15inches ,it would read 65k lux, which is really 130k lux, and my plants leaves, didn't like it that close at all,
But Nebulas 315cmh, she told me at 18inches, her lux meter, would read what it should like 65k-75k lux,
It might have been the different kind of light, she had, idk.I like that 10k finishing lamp, alot, but some of the scientist will say it don't work, it sure makes fine looking buds ,I know that much.
I wish i could tell you if you need only one, or if you need two, but i dont know the answer to that, I would think 2 finishing lamps would do great, but them damn, lamps are as high as a cats back, imo.
GrowersChoice could tell you though, I'm sure they will tell you need 2 because, of sales, but they have always been honest with me, everytime I talked to them, so i trust them alot. They might tell you ,that you only need 1 finisher lamp.so again,idk.
But I'm sure your gonna do great ,with your new grow light though. Like always.
Have a great day, my brother.

Thanks brother . I did a quick math check and this was actually cheaper than my hps 240 for the fixture light and ballast then 2 3100 bulbs about 120 my hps reflector was 240 then the ballast was 200 and the bulb was around 100 at the store but it worked great just trying to save some money
 
Time for some new pictures as you can see they are doing great still trying to get the auto watering right but its improving I water 3 times a day but I think im going to up it to 4 ,at 3 I increased my time from 2 minute to three and I still have plenty of water left in res so go to 4 times a day ,like everything else its a process . When I set it up I used a 5 gallon bucket and it took 2 1/2 minutes to drain the bucket so that was my bases for the 2 minutes

And you decorated, with festive orange pipe tape 😁🎄

Looks really good - I like the new light, it really opens up my sight lines, are you still getting equivelant focus? Your previous hood was deep and would have focused/directed the beam onto the canopy
 
I think I'm going to have a big problem I took out the plants in the veg room ,you know the ones that have at least 6 more weeks before they can be flipped ,right now they are each 3 feet wide , I may have to run them all alone just to have enough room lol I was so aggressive tieing them down as far as I could I split 3 out of 4 thats why the red tape.
