Lighting Pete's SolarSpec 150s vs Cheese XXL

[Discretepete2676]

Your staying busy atleast "dad" got some real nice strains down too. They should keep you busy especially all being different. This is my first time growing all the same strains in one room and I know it will relieve so much stress

I'm running multiple strains, lights, rooms, temps, two different types of FULL nutrient lines, one organic, one synthetic and was running two different types of soil during this grow but I've got my soil picked now. Lol so that's one thing....I need to drop the nectar, got into autos for more simplicity and this is a advanced line! Great stuff but I'm not ready for it yet....I am going to be using it on my first photo run here though.....looking to grow a monster, she's in a five gal now for couple weeks of hard training then I'm going to up pot to a 10, flip, and let her run wild and become the bush I imagine lol. Things are crazy around here lol. I work at my local grow shop and have to drop advanced nutrients and grab another line because we don't carry AN, so I'm looking at switching to remo nutrients here shortly when my advanced starts getting low I'll start the transition.....I'm kind of over the "honeymoon" stage of wanting to try everything and test everything and what not and ready to get back on track. Rough summer with lots of problems. But that all stops now. I'm back on track. Will get my threads changed up and consolidated hopefully and spend the winter with each one of my grow spaces packed nuts to butts with plants and I'll make sure they are all damn near perfect. When I try I do great, the cheese xxl were my rebound plants and they worked great even though I transplanted late and missed a few days off taking care of them.....and they were still awesome!! So time to focus in and put out some good looking gals....plus I have a shit ton of mephisto and can't be messing those beauties up lol

Ohh yeah! I hate hate hate summer! This past has been ridiculous for me. My last 2 electric bills could have paid for a decent used car. I only run 3000 watts when everything's in full flower but the humidity is the killer. Damn dehumidifier is like a 1500 watt heater and then my poor Ac struggles. Plus I don't care what the yields like without but forget the co2 bottles. Trying to manage 2-3 tanks during store hours isn't easy either. Fall and winter im going all out. Plants ever where.

Yup that's where I'm at too lol plants everywhere!!!! You do have an amazing room though!!!! I'd take that over my rooms any day!!! I've never ran Co2 or a room that size though so I'd be in for a ride lol

Hey Pete I went t ok my local hydro shop and picked up a shit tone of roots organic original soil and they gave me the soul nutrients line up from them. I'll be giving it a shot on my next auto run. I also got a free thing of technaflora so I will do a side by side comparison. A lot of shops are going to be dropping AN because it's so expensive to stock and to try to compete with online prices is ludicrous.

Yeah our distributor is sunlight supply and they don't even carry it themselves. Lol but I have tons of options...all the Aurora (roots) stuff....everything from Gen. Hydro./ organic.....botanicare....rx Gen solutions...fox farms....bio bizz....remo...Humboldt,both brands....mother earth, nectar for the gods, dyna grow,emerald harvest, with both style base nutrients,....and so much more lol....but remo and the go box don't really need to be PH adjusted. I like to mix and go, makes it easier on the wife too!

I've used Fox farms for years I love all their stuff except the soils they tend to be way to hot for autos. I seen good results with Biobizz with some autos. It's always so hard to choose when Thierry are so many good products out their.

My first grow was with the fire farms trio no solubles and a 600w hps in a 2X4 from gave me my best results....I think I could get those same results with 300w of amare though!!! I'm back on track and have a plan now!!

Always amazed at what you can do with just adding water!! Beautiful scrog my friend! One day I'll hopefully be there!!! Been looking at build a soil complete kit too so I can try it before buying all the components for the recipe myself. Is basically clackamas coots recipe in Pre made small amounts.

I'm going to be very blunt here. FU€# Advanced nutrients and bio sh!t there is no need to spend 3-400 a run on advanced and biobizz is another with the $70 quart of bioheaven.

My biobizz starter box came with 6 months of everything needed to grow for 90 dollars but only came with 3 weeks of bioheaven. That's such a dick way of trapping people into buying more. You don't want to waste the other 5 bottles then you have to buy nearly a gallon of it per run. I don't know what the gallon price is but I'm sure it's well over 200. Plus with biobizz I had more deficiencies and ph issues I almost gave up growing. Chasing deficiencies was the worst and being organic and the setup not providing what the plants needed it actually took weeks for things to breakdown enough to start working. Organics 101

I switched to floraduo and use it in soil. 25 a gallon and only really need 1 gallon of each for a full grow. I do add 5 other things but it's not needed necessarily.

I'm going to give remo nutrients a shot although they are expensive too lol but I only need a few bottles really. Like four or five, and remember I get the stuff at cost!!!
