hello my fellow farmers i'm very new to this and for the last month i've been trying to learn how to clones. My friend recently gave me a really good looking female candi plant i've brought her out of shock and re-potted into a bigger pot but what i have noticed is that some of her leaves are a little dark than some of the other could you please tell me what i'm doing wrong. Is it something she needs i'm not trying to flower her just using her for clones i have bat guno when i repotted her i used mix into the soul how often do i use the guano. i really need your advice to get me back on track thanks, yes i have a set up and a 250 watt sodium light.

black.. start your own thread please.

cheers

I saw your post in the power use thread. Like I said U may want to use frolesents for your veg, and switch to the HPS when you cut back to 12 hours for the bloom. This will definatly help in your situation.

P.S. I've bloomed at 10 on 14 off before. If U do this you will cut off almost 100kWh from the 16 hour days, and save yourself some cash.

hey there i havent got florecent lights i just spent all my money on a hps light and stuff but i got a duel spectrum that works for veg. i just cut from 18 hrs to 16hrs veg stage so i save 2 hrs do they not grow better with hps?
if i thought a strip light from the kitchen was gonna work i would have got one is that as good? i heard they were pretty bad for growing. not enough of the right light and intensity. but my babies are growing fine they are growing i think 2 cm a day. would it do that with florecent lights? as for the power its gonna cost but for now im not gonna have it on all the time i will do 1 crop and maybe another sometime next year(dont want my electricity company wondering why my usage has tripled!) i got a pic of my growing space. ill try and post it.
with the 10 on 14 off flowering? i take it that only saves electricity on flowering?
cheers

On your first point. Yes your HPS will grow them faster, and yes total floresent grow is no good if you can help it. In very small enclosures with little circulation Compact Floresent Lights (CFL's) work, not tubes "strip light". However if power use is an issue a CFL per plant with home made foil reflectors will get you through the vegitive stage (16-18 hour days). A 25watt or so each should do with a total of 100W an hour and @18 hours a day is only 54kWh to your bill vs 216kWh for the 400W. Be creative when it comes to fixtures, old lamps or light fixtures and a few wire clothes hangers will save you a few extra bucks. If you do this let me know and I can give you some more tips on getting/making your own fixtures.

On the flowering/budding stage question. Yes -120kWh@10hours- -144kWh@12hours- so you'll save 24kWh by doing 10 hour days.
