SOG (72+ plants) 1000W/Light Rail

B

very nice setup i grow in 1 gal pots aswell and get good results ive just started a grow under 3/400s so will be watching and compering yeilds with your 1000 hopefully i get more lol

What people do here is run 2 x 430 bulbs on a 1000W HPS ballast. I've never tried it myself but know someone who builds trailers like this and the x430W kills the 1000W for light.

What kind of an area are you covering?

The change to 50/50 Coco/ProMix HP from straight coco was a night and day difference two days after I transplanted. I don't know why maybe vegging in small 3" cup with straight coco is not the right way to do it. I had some weird issue but they're rolling now.

Really nice to see a grow on Ushio lamps,
Im in thailand and just found out Ushio have an office in
Bangkok,im using Ballasts that run Son-t plus so im going to ring them later ,but i fancy the optiblue for veg and opti red for flower.
The dual arc lamp guess will leave that for now .

something tells me its the micorise in the PM/hp.. my plants thrive in promix or anymix with promix tossed in.

I love the show and it looks like I'm just in time. FloraNova rocks in 1gal coco pots, I run about 40 under each 1k with very similar additives. I tried the DM Gold from the break and it seemed to be a good stable nute. There really moving now, maybe I should try the promix combo. I wish you the best of luck with this run, but from the looks of things ya wont need it. Karma, One Love

All looks good to me DM/ GH.... nice little stretch your getting in those should be a bit taller than your last lot by the looks of it. Do you intend to trim the lower branches at all or just let them go natural :)

I'm gonna trim the lower branches as there's just not enough light and don't need to waste energy on the fluff popcorn on the bottom.

I will probably have to hit them in about 3 days with Phosphload/Dr Nodes/etc.. to keep them from stretching anymore. They probably got at least a week worth of stretching and would get too big and lanky.

I'm also gonna have to get the second charcoal filter going as the smell is starting to creep out of the tent area but i'll have to buy a second fan for the scrubber or I might try this thing out and just hang it on the wall just by the entrance to the room http://hydrotek.ca/en/product.php?id=336

Well they're getting pretty tall fast so gonna have to hit them with Top Load (Photoshoload clone) to keep them this height. Surprised how much they stretched out over two days. They're at about 14" now. Gonna go with regular PK next time

So seems the DM flowers are bigger. The overall plant/node growth is the same.

Took these last night. Fed them Top Load to kill the stretch and stunt them. Once the market picks up I'm going back to Diesel :)
