Couple of newbie questions

806smoka · #1 09-25-2007, 03:57 PM

This is my very first grow. I have six plants that are about 2-2.5 weeks into veg. growth. I am running 6 23w cfls. I have three bulbs that are soft white and three daylight bulbs. The plants seem to be loving it so far. Is this lighting setup enough for my plants? I have enough room in my closet to put in six more bulbs. Really lovin the site so far. Would like to post some pics to get feedback, but I'm hesitant about it. How safe is it to post pics here? Any advice from the experts would be great.

How many nodes do you have.. your plants have?

With CFLs , you should consider flowering NOW.. even if you only hvae 4-6 nodes...

add more light whenever possible!

the plants are about 6-8" tall with anywhere from 5-7 nodes. should i really start a flowering light cycle right now? the light cycle should be 12/12 to intiate flowering, right. when the plants start flowering should i move to all daylight cfl bulbs? Thanks a ton for the advice.
