Would a 200 W red spectrum Flourescent bulb require a balast?

Hey man just put it in the field, take it out of the pot and plant it in the ground, pots dry out in a matter of hours/days... It would be dead by the time you got back, just dig up the soil and turn it over and plant her in, water and viola, she's natures problem til' you return for a bountiful suprise!

Wish you told me that the other day. She's out in the field now. Although it's the coast of Ireland. There's a good chance she'll get some rain. Or else she's fucked. It was a toss up you see. Wanted to have the choice to bring her in to flower. Was thinking of putting some plastic sheeting over the soil to prevent evaporation. And maybe putting a few holes in the side of the pot at this level to allow rain to drain off, and a few holes in the plastic sheet to allow enough to drain through. Was an idea, but would kind of want to be around to get it right.

I've contacted a guy selling a 100w hps light with ballast. It's €35 and €10p&p, and supposedly new. Surely that's TOO cheap (it might be old with a new bulb). He's also selling them with either son t, or son e bulbs. Now Son t looks better to me. What's the difference?

Been talking to a guy selling a 150w flourescent with lamp holder and cord set. He wants €40 for it. Says it's been used very little. Would a 150w flourescent provide anything close to enough lumens in the right spectrum for any kind of decent yield while flowering. Still keeping my eyes peeled for a cheap HPS.

I was thinking about it, but I want it inside so I can control nutes properly, take photos regularly, and just enjoy looking at it all the time. Besides weather here's not exactly peachy right now. She's out in a field in a pot right now, and will be for another 2-3 weeks.

Yep. You should go to Ireland. You'd love the greenery. It's a small place is all. Harder to get specialised things/HPS lights cheaply.

I have been, and every other site I've come across that does buy and sell. It's a bit of a kick in the balls though. Every one I look at has had exactly what I want (a 150w,250w, or even 400w) hps lamp, and ballast, and even some had reflectors) for €40 or there there abouts in the last few months. If only I'd been keeping an eye on them earlier. Never really considered getting HPS before, always under the misconception that they cost a bomb to run.

Just read the thread on training techniques. I'm sickened I'm only learning that stuff now. Knew about topping the plant generating new budsites, but thought you needed antiseptic gel or something, that I couldn't afford to do it.

Well live and learn, will definitely be trying out a low stress training technique next grow. Almost tempted to follow stinky up with one or two clones just to try it out. Was gonna leave my next grow till next year's spring.

You can still do low stress training on your baby and it wont hurt her at all man, just tie it down gently and you will be fine. Its a good way to keep it short and make sure that the budsites get more light. I can probably find you a diagram if you want one. Although you probably already looked and found one.

I think I'll do just that. Won't be seeing her for another 2 weeks at least though. Maybe even three. Might just tie her down and leave her out to flower in the sun, take a few clones and stick them under some CFLs for another month while I'm gone again. Not really sure. Still weighing all my options. Temptation to flower inside's really drawing on me. Been looking at Biobizz nutes in local headshop, they get good reviews online. I've been using crappy green fingers stuff and seaweed extract.

My friend was around back home so he went out to take a look at stinky. These pics are taken on a camera phone so the quality is shocking. Apparently the top of the plant's got a pretty dense cannopy with not so many leaves growing further down the main stem. You can see in the close up that a few leaves have been eaten. Apparently some have been completely eaten off.

Doesnt look bad man! I think the insects will start leaving your plants alone soon. The sugars are at their highest when they are seedlings and thats why the bugs like to eat them.

Some pics of my first grow. It didn't go greatly, only got a few g of a yield. Went the whole way with only about 40w of flourescent, and was using green fingers concentrated plant food for it. But still it grew, flowered and was smoked. Just sticking them here for criticism.

My friend told me they're planning on landscaping the field Stinky's in, and they've started mowing the grass on the far side. I'll be there in 3 days. If any of you are one's for karma. I could do with some.
