hey guys, i got a timer and was wondering if i plug a powerboard into the timer will the timer shut the powerboard off?

i ask this because when i get more lights, they will have to be turned off every 12 hrs aswell and im not buying more than 1 timer

i just dont wanna try and in-turn fuking up the timer

thanks.
That's the easiest way to do it. I plud all my lights into 1 power bar. I do have another timer for the humidifier I occasionally.

Might not be a bad idea. If you're using stock AG nutes, go with their schedule. I use Fox Farm so I go by theirs. If you do, maybe let the plants roots set without water/nutes for 10 minutes before you refill your tank. It oxigenates themfrom what I've read, and they grow like crazy. Good luck and be careful. Don't want to shock the little ones to bad.

Sorry to heard about the loss, but for the lights i would just buy those CLF reflectors, with the big round reflector and get one of the Y sockets and you can connect two CFL's to one lamp, i think it would be eaiser to hang then to have a bunch of lamps you kno

Wow, those look great! I'd give them another 2 weeks before I'd consider flowering. But that's just me and this is my first grow too.
Luck

Clip on lamps might be more versatile. Home Depot, Lowes. You can get the clip on, which has a built in socket for about $6-$7, reflectors for another $6-$7 and daylight cfl's pretty cheap. How many grows do you see with a desk lamp? I'm just saying.
