New CFL Grow Closet -- Updates Weekly

Hi there, im new to this forum and im trying to get some advice and imput on my current set up. If this is in the wrong place please someone lemme know I dont need any problems just looking for some impute, I have already gone through 4 sites without response.. Attached are my baby's, all of them except the one in the cup started about 25 days ago. I have them on a soil shrimp compost mix, and food spikes 10-10-5, oh and the lights are 2 reds CFL's @ 40 watts, and 1 blue CFL @ 26 watts.

You need more light.

i agree with bullwinkle you are going to need more light in there. right now since you are in the veg cycle you should have more of the blue light then the red light. buy more daylight cfls and throw them in there i would still leave the 2 red lights in there because its good to have a slightly mixed spectrum. ofcourse you want to have more more daylight cfls in the for the veg and more red in the for flowering. your plants are looking pretty nice man, if you want to keep them bushy keep the light as close as possible without burning them, a good way to test this is put your hand by your plant and if your hand get uncomfortably hot they are to close but if it is a little warm it should be fine just make sure to have a good fan pointed at the plants

thank you for the responses Im working on getting another lamp for another blue, just one blue or 2 more? I was thinking of making the light a little more even?

I would just get many wyes with whatever spectrum are available and rock as many cfls as you can. also how long do those spikes feed? if they feed for two long might want to remove as 10 N will be kind of high throughout for most genetics

they last for 60 days, is that to long?
