That 1 is 100% sativa almost as big as me just short of 6 foot including pot, there isnt really enough lights there, u want lots of bulbs all over

yes regular light fittings, just rigg lots up on a power strip or 2 and plug them into to a basic timer, get as many as your sockets will take, then set your light cycle to 18/6 18 on 6 off then sit back and watch her grow

sweet thats the time i am running now does the cluster ones work better then the regular cfl

can i ask what are your main reasons for using cfls?

i'm not trying to say "get 1000W hps!!!" or anything.

but why that type of bulb? is it cost? heat? i would like to know, never used them. but they get good results from what i can see.

i just started using cause i didnt know if the hps would make my elc bill go up but its been the same with just one 75w and one 65w bulb

ive got some 200 watt cfls there damn good if you use about 3 or 4

dam IVIR were did you get those from???? and what kind of socket did you use for them

oh right,

yea electrcity for me has gone up a bit. using 600W hps, but damn...

just added mylar everywhere. it's like a mini sun

lol haha im using aluminum foil does mylar work better and isn't that like gift wrap paper or something

im using em because its my first grow sorta, im not pumping any more cash into my op until i smoked my first yield, then i will decide if its worth it

High Tech Garden Supply check it yo! not gift wrap and its super shiny

any input on seeing what sex it is??? or if i need more light??? lol noobie here

you could wait untill thier about 5-7 weeks old and take a clone, and flower it, that will tell you the sex of the mother.

or just flower the plant itself to speed it up, then throw it back in veg.

both cause stress tho.

i used foil, isn't all that great, causes hot spots too!

mylar is like >95% reflective.

not paying that much to run the light and not make the most of it...

sweet thanks for the tip stoner87 ill clone it

dam i need to take the foil up... so can i get myler from like walmart??? cause im going to get more bulbs tomorrow
