No....on for 6:40 and off for 12....and now for the life of me I cannot find those threads...

well...I did a ton more research and looking around but I believe the shortened light schedule I was using was not meant for CFLs....more so for HIDs....plus with CFLs you are limited with how much lumen intensity you are getting in the first place, the best solution is to give them as much as possible....

So I ditched the 6:40 on and 12 off and switched to 12/12...I hope it does not shock it too much...

good luck with the switch...hope the girls hold up...how are your temps in there when the case is all closed up? my pc case can get a bit warm with four 23w CFLs...

Well here I am now on day 36...just real day 36. I switched to 12/12 from my "weird" light cycle and the results have been pretty good...

I am hoping that by Aug 16...which will be 50 days I will have a good idea of how she will do....

But thank goodness the switch to 12/12 did not shock her that much... a bit of leaf burning but eh...

some pics too...

thanks for the support man...temps hold around 82 to 85 if the day is warm but when it cools off in the evening the temp drops down to about 81 or so ...not too bad I think...I bet at some points when I am not around in the earlier part of the day the temp prob passes 85 for a bit...

She is drinking nearly half a liter a day if not a bit more now

EVERYTHING THAT I SAY HERE IS COMPLETELY FALSE AND THE ONLY REASON I SAY THESE THINGS IS SO I CAN SOUND COOL.

I am having some heat issues as of the last few days...I am now in day 43...since day 40 the temp has shot from an average of 82 to 85 all the way up to 88 to 91!!!!! YIKES! I am not sure what is causing the sudden heat increase....but I am not sure how to deal with it at this stage of everything...

any ideas ?

try getting another fan in there to cool things down, or try leaving the door open for a lil while during the day

I added a much larger intake fan and it dropped the temp very nicely...I am now closer to my old spread of 82 to 85 but averaging about 88 to 90 still during the peak time of the day...

I am thinking about adding another exhaust fan too .....

I wish I could run the house ac more often....because when it is sucking in cool 76 air the case temp is barely 81!
