Default week 6 veggie, huge cfl bulbs
permalink
my first grow, seeds from attitude,
kandy kush is what im growing

this is week 6 of veggie, and i believe they are huge, the leaves are thick and the smell is STRONGGGGGGGGG lol, but thats another battle, im growing in my closet so space is getting small, im growing under 4 huge cfl bulbs, they are 68 watts and say they can replace a 300 watt bulb. tell me what you think ?? i know my setup is ghetto but this is an experiment before i spend real money on this.

sorry all i have is my cell phone to take pics and videos

How far is that much light being distributed? That's the question. You have enough wattage for about 4 sq ft, but I'll bet it's more than that. For flower you will want to add light and move toward a mostly 2700k spectrum. Stick with cfls, do you know the spectrum of what you have? I'd add a few more 42w cfls on the sides with clamp reflectors.

I made a box and put 4 of those 68 watt cfls under it, I keep them another 2 or 3 inches above the plant, once I get home I can tell you the spectrum and lumens they put out, so far I'm shocked, my plants are growing fast, and I will get some more cfls if I need them to flower

you will be fine but for your next grow make sure you have 6500k bulbs for veg and 2700k for flower..2:1 ratio of your lights for each stage
