for the nutes, you need to find some hydro nutes they dont have them at garden centers normally, you can find them at hydro shops or online, im using the tabs, just cut the dose in half and it should be good, mine are bushy as hell
ok so I was at costco today and I bought some CFL's I was wondering if they would work with what I'm trying to do? it's a 100watt 60mhz 380ma mercury CFL I got 6 for like 8 bucks and change? Or do I need a different light I'm just looking for side lights for my AG.
Any input as far as alum foil over the part the holds the plant carriers? I've seen it on a few pics and some with out it.
Thanks for all the advice Nirvana... I have no idea what I'm doing here

no prob beta,
as for the mercury cfl, that should work just fine im sure
and you can put the foil (or mylar preferably) so light will refect back up to the underside of the plant, but it is not necessary, especially when you got side lights
i saw on here someone made a cfl hood out of PVC and mylar, that would be a great idea and just make it so it can enclose the whole plant i might have to try that hehe
