Flowering 8 weeks and on the plain water now till ready. Some of the buds are getting heavy and falling over.

I seem to have hit my upload limit in the gallery and cant upload any more pictures. If i delete a few albums from the gallery to free up space will the images still show on my old posts or will they disappear as well?

Is that true? I don't want to play part in any rumors.

However, if ICM no longer hosts images then we need to relocate our images to a third party. I'm sick to death of photobucket and it's not private and secure anyway.

Any suggestions for a PRIVATE/SECURE third party image hosting service?

If it's not accurate that ICM will stop hosting images then please let me know so I can delete this post.

Seems a bit excessive to me, you'd be at ~65 watts/sqft, many people in this thread have shown great results with 20-30 watts/sqft. Also so many watts in a relatively small space will generate quite a bit of heat, that you will have to deal with.

The bulbs are ok, I think, though there are more efficient ones available. Might still be worth it, if you get a good deal on them.

id go 30 per, there is NO benifit for more watts, you can hang them lower if you need higher intesity if you want
after 3 years ive decided that 8-10w chips have the best result in low spaces (so 95% of the growers) and the 15-20w put out too much heat to be hung low

these 15+ are great for small veg boxes, hang em and leave em, they are intense enough to stop most of the stretch and the spread works with reflective walls
