I've read that it takes the same to mature regardless of doing 18/6 or a straight 12/12 from seed. The difference is 18/6 gives you a bushy tree with multiple bud sites where as straight 12/12 from seed gives you smaller plants that are generally just one big main cola. Is your max height 90cm...
Online shopping is the way to go. So much cheaper. Anyway @CFLnoob you can get away with as many pots as you can fit. Buy square pots to utilize the space better. Yes "soft white" CFLS are rated at 2700K which is used for flowering. Daylight CFLs 6500K are used for vegging. You can get away with...
I would say 2 plants in that space with those size pots. Light penetration for CFLs is pretty average and the way your lights are set up the tops are going to block the light reaching the bottom eventually. Personally I would do a SoG in smaller pots, it would utilize your space and light setup...
Hey mate, the more light you can give your plant the better. How many plants are you planning on growing? They say a minimum of 2000 lumens per plant (=3 CFLs). You need 6500k spectrum for VEG and 2700K spectrum for flower. They need to be kept fairly close to your plants though and they can...
Hey mate, personally I would grow a couple in smaller pots. A bigger plant has the potential for a bigger yield, but a smaller plant could yield just as much. In regards to time management, regardless of the size of the plant it will take the same amount of time to mature from seed to flower. If...
