You can grow with that but more light is better. I have 4x 42 watt CFLs over 4 plants right now and they all seem happy. Best of luck to you.

That much light output is fine in my opinion. Make sure you watch your temperatures though, a CFL that big will get into the 100 degree range.

I had a similiar setup with 6x 42watt CFLs. I put my seedlings too close to the lights and the temperature got too high. I moved them further away from the lights and they started growing faster. Best of luck to you.

Thanks for the input. My phone is dead but I'll post pics within the hour.

I have 6 White Rhino seedlings under 4x 42 watt CFLs. How close should my seedlings be to the CFLs? Obviously the closer they get, the hotter the temperature. Is it better to have them farther away from the lights so it's not so hot? Any advice is appreciated. I'll upload pics in a few minutes.

My seeds came in a cardboard birthday card. It seems pretty discrete.

I just got my seeds from Nirvanaseeds.com. It only took about a week to ship them from Amsterdam to Florida.

Sweet, thanks guys. I appreciate the advice and I'll look into those topics.

CFL grow and the few leaves that I have are about an inch away from the lights.

Is there a pruning technique to create more leaves? My plant's leaves are spaced far apart and there's only a few of them. I'm hoping there's a way to start more leaves so my plant will suck up more light. Any advice?

Thanks and good luck with yours!

Hey guys, first time grower here. I have to keep this grow stealthy because of my straight edge roommates. I'm currently growing some bag seed just to get some experience under my belt before I buy any expensive strains. I have about 40 seeds so there isn't any issue if I mess up one plant. My...

Yea, I'll be getting new soil ASAP but for the time being I mixed 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda into a quart of water. I only used a little around the root hoping it will atleast stop the damage in the mean time.

Your my hero. No more cheap soil!
