Hey Fatal, isn't that girl a little tall for a 400 watt... All of those little branches at the bottom getting little, to no light at all... But if your into popcorn nuggs, then you are well on you way... Unless of course you have an idea for some side lighting....

When I stated this grow I had no intentions of it getting this tall I heard you can keep her short by switching to 12/12 after 2 weeks and I did so but she took off hope she will maintain current height. If not I do have a old 150 watt hps that I might work into the setup.

you can allways if space allows slowly tie the plant's top over LST this would also open the plant up to a more even light distribution :)

Day 38 of 12/12 and she is at 53 inches tall man she is big I had no clue she would get this big after only vegging her for 18 days. I am alittle worried as the buds are quite small to be 38 days in flower but I was told alot of that had to due with short veg time I sure hope the buds will fattin up because they are looking damn good

Im planning on using the 400 watter for my new veg room, because Im getting a new 1000w for flower. But the 400w will always have a place in my garden :)

p.s.
Sorry about the blurry pics. My camera as well as my camera skills both suck ;)

so true, fuck a hortilux, why pay for a name? you can get sylvania grolux 400 bulbs on ebay for around $40 including shipping. these last longer AND burn brighter than the hortilux hps. they've also got the enhanced spectrum.

I personnally like the hortilux. I started with a regular sylvania and when I switched to the hortilux I seen a noticable improvement. But then again, Ive only tried two bulbs so far. maybe ill try the growlux with the 1000w
