hey everyone

im setting up a grow cab to grow some lowryder 2 purely for seeds for my
next outdoor growing season, ive ordered 10 lowryder 2 seeds from the
joint doctor so goto get this build underway.

my question is what would be the min CFL wattage required for each plant
given that i am purely growing the girls for seeds, and am not worried about bud quality. ?

out of 10 seeds i would be hoping on getting 2-3 which i will pollinate with the strongest lookin male, so how much cfl power would the girls need to produce properly developed seeds?

thanks in advance

:peace:

Try not to go under 48w... They are lows so you will def want a higher watt CFLs to penetrate lower as everyone says. If I was you, 2 plants per 48w CFL MINIMUM. Maybe 1.5 plants per 48w.

Yeh =D. Tie them down after they reach about 1 foot or a little smaller. Make sure you bombard them with light if you LST also cause the light has potential to miss half the plant :O.

Just don't stress too much man, it's a hardy plant, you have to actually Try to kill it to kill it :P.
