| | whoops, missed your last post. ok....well definitely add the new bulb. get all the lumens in there you can.
that would be...
2600 + 3200 + 2600 = 8,400 lumens. |

You can see my grow journal here, what you are wanting is what I am doing (successfully so far  knock on wood ) My Hempy Top 44 CFL Grow Journal
Was that a guess on bagseed, if you found them? They are growing pretty damn low for plants grown outside in shade. |

| | [quote=Gqmetalhead;917548]Hey bro, i've heard that using dirt from outside is a bad idea becasue you can get bugs and shit in your house from that, a bag of sterilized soil is only like 2 or 3 bucks, don't be such a cheapskate. Just trying to warn ya. Also, that light you have is not realy gonna be enough, for 2 plants your gonna want at LEAST 3 of those, if your looking to save money you can make your own reflector using a smallecardboard box with the inside painted with flat white paint. eithier pick up a couple light sockets at the store or take apart some old lamps and wire it up, just cut holes in the sides of the box to push the sockets thru, thats what i did my first grow and it worked pretty good, i used 4 23 watt cfl's for 1 plant. light is key, the more light, the more yield you will get from your plant. Right now i have a 2' t5 high output flourecent fixture, its 108 watts and puts out 10,000 lumens, and im only growing one plant. You got to realize your gonna have to shell out some cash to get some good lights but they will end up paying for themselves many times over. Here is a link to the light I have, its the best flourecent you can get for growing in my opinion and its not that expensive. Hope this helps. High Tech Garden Supply
That's a really great light. I have one myself, and it works friggin' great. I love the PL's.
Mumra!

| | ok so i will add the other light i guess another trip to home depot might even buy another soft white (1600 lumens) that way its an even 10,000 lumens. I was thinking about chip bags cause i got some big ones at work and iwas going to line the bottom cause the light reaches everywhere here are a few updated pics i think one of my plants got a lil burned but other than that they are doing great, since i found these outside how long should i veg??? i watered today with MG (24-8-16) about 1 tsp and a lil vigora (10-10-10) about 1tbsp and then a lil clean water about a 2liter of each. the food was mixed in one two liter diluted with water another 1 and half of regular just to make i wasnt over fertin them.
thanks every1
