Well I noticed this morning when I got up that my HPS bulb wasn't on, tested my MH one, the HPS is definitely burned out. My poor plants have gone through so much, 1 and a half week in an ice storm without power, and now this. Poor girls are fucking hardy Well, I wasn't sure what to do; but did a search on these forums and found an interesting thread. http://forum.grasscity.com/advanced-growing-techniques/194680-metal-halide-trichomes.html I just switched back over to my MH, so may try and do this. What does everyone think about this idea? Or should I just harvest early? Many thanks
Shouldnt be a problem you should be able to flower to the end just fine but do let us know how your plants turn out and if the MH had any effect on trichrome production. Really intresting link.
Anyplace that sells HPS, yes. I'm quite suprised my HPS went out anyway, it was the first grow and it'd only been in use for 7 weeks of flowering or so. But, this whole increased trichome business sounds appealing, so hopefully MH does the job.
