    Clone Dome R.H.?

    Thanx alot King. I didn't even think about using a timer. I know my temp/RH meter works cuz I use it in my grow room. I didn't measure the RH when I used the reg heating pad but there was a lot of condensation on the dome from the humidity. It was staying on for about 2 - 2.5 hours before...

    Mother Plant Light & Cycle?

    Thanx again. I usually put the plants under the HPS after they get to 1.5' under the cfls. I ran out of room this time so I switched them all to the MH. I wasn't sure if that's why the mothers got so tall or if they'd normally get to 5' under a CFL. But from now on ill keep the moms under cfls...

    Mother Plant Light & Cycle?

    Thanx for the quick reply bro. I use the cool white CFL's for my plants until their about 1.5' tall before putting them under the HPS and they grow pretty good under them. So you think it'd be ok to keep the moms under the cfl too? I really don't want to use a MH cuz of the cost since I'm...
