    Well I'm out of the hospital. Been there for nine months, this time. Now It's time to get your girls planted outside. I'm located in TN. So adjust your plantings accordingly. Remembering the girls don't like it below sixty degrees. Below fifty degrees and you can pretty much kiss them good bye...

    Need to upgrade lights , help pls

    Were I am from, the electric company and police have started to monitor the amount of wattage used over a number of hours. HPS lights use a lot of watts. I switched over to t5 lighting. I liked HPS lighting much better but the t5 do work, & sure beats jail. Grampa 1949

    1st attempt @ growing

    I personally, would wait 10 to 12 more days. Then put them in with the light 2 feet up. See how they do for 2 to 3 day and start lowing the lights to the correct position.

    How old is she? I've put plants into flower(HPS) as early as 2 weeks. But I started from seed. Meaning my root system is started and deeper.
