i have a dwc grow going on right now.
my problem is theyre stretching too much!!!
i thought bringing the bulbs in close would stop this but nope!!!
im using 2 68watt cfl's by the way...at like an inch from the tops!

bREAK DOWN AND BUY THE RIGHT EQUIPMENT FOR THE JOB. LISTEN DUDE NO DERESPECT BUT YOU GATTA BUY @ LEAST 400 WMETAL HALIDE BULB WITH BALLAST OR FOUR GET ABOUT IT.. YOUR WASTING GROWING TIME , i HAVE A 4X5 GROWINF AREWITH 2 12 GAL. RUB'S WITH 5 EACH PODS. IF YOU BUY FEM SEEDS YOU COULD GET MABY 6 TO 7 PLANTS BUT IT WILL BE CROWDED IF YOU PLANT BANK SEEDS YOU TAKE THE CHANCE OF MALES AS WE ALL KNOW. bUT THAT 400 w WILL GROW 5 PLANTS ALL RIGHT

An excellent example of inverse caps lock syndrome.

Hhahahahahaha Wow. I would of posted it too if I had done it by accident. Not gonna get my medicated ass to go back and retype all that shit.

Turn the heat down in that room. If they are stretching, and u have the lights that close, either they are underwatered (hard to do in a DWC), or u have heat issues. Buy what u can afford, everyone starts somewhere, obviously Budsworth thinks everyone has access to a surplus of cash. Good luck bro

You need a surplus of cash to upgrade a little? Hit craigslist man and find a 250 hps. Bet you can get one for 60-80. You'll thank me later, it's something you'll have for a long ass time. If not, then get more floro's. You'll get some good smoke from em.

thanks for the info!
ok first..

i have no mo funding to buy all that n im doing a stealth grow!
my space is very minimal..
n second...
ive seen good results from a cfl bulb!!!

i currently have 2 150watt hps bulbs, but no ballasts =(
i can mack two from a gym!
i dnt think they work, but its worth a try!
they dont use it anyways!

wow i wouldve never guessed that heat does that?!?!
it probably is...
i have no temp guage, but my box is in an airconditioned room thats at 69 degrees 24/7.
ill probably fix up my lights so that i have a cooltube like thing!
all i need is the hose to redirect the hot air out of the box!

Did I not say you would get some good smoke from them??

But dude two 68's isn't jack shit. My computer monitor probably puts out more light than that (not really). When I grew with cfl's I had 10 in a 3ftx3ft square. It was fine for two plants to get about a half ounce each. Don't expect much from what you have. Sell those bulbs and buy something you can use.

haha hey the N's n M's are next to eachother so its a good chance ill hit em by mistake!

yeah its not much in there, but damn, theyre right under it n they still hug the bulbs!
i think one more 68 n a couple of 23 watters should be awesome..
n yes when i get the chance to be able to grow in an unconcealed location, then ill get the hps setup!
but for now, i need more opinions for this...

i have noticed that the plants farther from the bulbs have stayed short...
?!?!?!?!???!?!!?!?
