Hey, They look really healthy and thats all that matters. CFL's wont make insane dense buds however they can still make an excellent harvest while keeping temps down. You may want to prune some lower branches that are shaded...the plant will focus on the canopy then...giving your CFL grow much...

Too much HID lighting in one room could harm cannabis. Hanging HID's too close to Cannabis can be very harmful. Unless you live off grid with your own solar panel energy it would also be a waste of money(electric bill). The only time this would work is if you used low watt HID's like 150...

Okay, I just finished 4 different autos.....heres my best advice, Flush your plants with 3x more water then you usually use. Flush, flush, flush! Ocean Forest and Happy Frog have been way too hot. This past year I have been dealing with soil issues. I have to mix with 50/50 (peat...

People aren't plants, and if a plant could talk it would ask for the right ph(5.5-6.5)....soil or not. Having the right ph is the difference between a good harvest and a crapy one, a healthy plant or a sick plant etc. The level of ph allows the plant use the nutes. Too low and some nutes...

Great job! Small buds that don't see the light of my HID...... will NEVER EVER see the light of my bic! LOLbongsmilie Whats the point of a bud if its not mature? Love to see some pics. I'm doing a scrog set up in a 9'x2' closet. I still have lower branches will small bud starts I'm gonna chop...

Nice colors! Yeah move the reg and give the auto more light. Just make sure the light is good enough for both plants and they will thank you. Auto will grow amazing with 18 hrs of light....you'll see. Love the colors! ;-)

I'd keep the top moist, its the driest part of the pot. After she starts growing 2nd and 3rd set of leaves you can watering more to soak the cup, then let it get dry enough before you water again!

My temps are about 74-78, humidity is about 40-50%. I have 18 seedlings going right now: DJ short Blueberry and Original GPD. They were sprouted in paper towel and gently place in damp soil. As long as the soil is moist and/or the humidity is high enough your okay. I use a little peat moss in...

Simple questions need simple answers guys..... NO, you cannot plug 2 1000 watt ballasts into one standard power strip. Standard power strips can handle 1500 to 1750 watts. So it would not be enough. I ran two 600 watt electric dimmable ballasts from same power strip. After a few weeks I...

Yeah a 250w or 400w MH are great for veg. Thats what I use. If your not growing large plants you may want to use t-5 lights in veg. They run cooler and are perfect for short/med plants, they are only 130$ for a 250 watt setup. Just plan on good air flow and venting as you figure this out...

Yeah that will work for a 600, just make sure you have good air flow and venting. Those 600watts can get pretty hot and burn plants if not careful. You wont get the whole room full under one 600 unless you use a light mover. But if you want room to walk and work you can have the lamp in the...

I dealt with the same issue, that ph down can be strong stuff. My well water is about 7.70-8 Ph. I use a hanna meter but it takes like a couple minutes to get a true reading. In our cases lowering from 8 to 5.5 is a decent amount and when you use just a little tiny bit too much it lowers it...

Try to snap some shots right as it turns on, before it gets too bright. Or turn it off and use different lighting to take pics. Thats what works best for me. I don't like the color the hps give the buds in pics so I turn it off and use a basic CFL for pics.

Hi there, I just dealt with similar issue. Auto's need more than 16 hrs of light to flower at full potential. So less light= less outcome. It will still bud fine, just take longer and not the best harvest for that strain. I wouldn't change your room just for an auto plant because the regular...

Very interesting.....They wont do much at all and will take a long long time to finish. An auto does one thing, flower. It may seem like it's back in veg stage but more than likely its very stunted and it could hermi..... Whats your goal by doing this?
