Threw the switch yesterday and all was well. Had to rearange some plugs after blowing a fuse or two in the evening. Plants are taking the 400w MH just fine,even the stragelers. Plants racge fron 4 nodes to 2 . They're in a drip system like the one on Daweedking's site.( 6 5gal pails ) I have the pump set for 1hr every 2-1/2hrs. Plants look perky,better than they were under the flos. Temp is at 84*,RH at 50%,with good air circulation and 2, 7" ocilating fans. New ultrasonic humidifier has thermostat to regulate the RH . Also added Mylar to walls to increase watts per square foot, Without the mylar and branching plants(yet), I have about 20.6 watts per square foot with the 400w MH. Nutes at 62 ppms pH 5.8 . I'll lower the light maybe 3" today,and see how it goes. How am I doin'so far ? This is my 1st hydro grow,still need advise on water cycles,nuet levels,and pH (useng 4"RW,perlite 70% /verm.30%, w/lava & growrocks). Thanks everybody,these forums have been alot of help....PEACE...
