You can definitely do something in that closet, it's a bit narrow, but if you are willing to give up the whole space, then you could certainly start a grow in there. As far as growing out of a cardboard box, that's what I have now in my closet. My closet is a walk-in with a lot more room than...

I spent about $30 the first time I went to buy lights, etc, but I ended up spending about $80 total after a couple more trips for more lights, timer, nutes, etc.

I remember sitting in high school drug education class and the teacher said something to the effect of "if you ever hear of someone smoking resin, they are lying if they say that they are high. There is no THC in resin." I can remember sitting there thinking, "If you only knew how many times...

I have been toking for probably about 5 years now and one thing that I have learned is that everyone reacts differently, even I react differently at different times. Sometimes I smoke and I'm ready to pass out, other times I get horny, other times I feel like going out. I also think it has to...

Hey, just my input here: 24/0 is ok, but I prefer 20/4 or 18/6 because when the light is off the roots develop more. I think this leads to a bigger, bushier plant. Also, you can flower whenever you want, just remember that the plants will get to about 2-3 times the size they were when you...

Go get some CFLs You can get a clamp lamp, splitter, and 2 bulbs for around $15. That would sustain one plant probably until harvest if you wanted.

So what you actually squeeze out of the filter, you let dry, and the remains are hash...?

So I just read Videoman's whole hash making thing in FAQ. It seems that all he does is blend leaves with the iso and let the iso dry out. I was under the impression that the purpose of making hash was to extract the low-concentrated thc from the leaves and concentrate it into hash. By simply...

Ok, I guess I misunderstood what you were trying to say. This thread was made to find the most efficient setup and get input about CFL lighting setups. I know that an HPS system is better, but CFLs are cheaper and require less wattage. As well, I can put my CFLs so close to the plants that I...

So at 2 ft away, a 400w hps is 3979 lumens...?

Agreed, but who puts CFLs 1 foot away? I have all of mine within 1" of the plant with reflectors on all, in enclosed reflective area. I lose very little light/intensity.

Thanks for posting about that 7900/150 = 52.667 Say you had 5 of these 30 watt bulbs: 30 Watt - Full Spectrum High Definition - Compact Fluorescent - 30W/SPRING/64K - As Low as $3.98 ea. That would still be 150 watts, but these put out 2000 lumens each, so that would be 10,000 lumens for...

I am preparing to make a large grow area and want to use CFLs. I was wondering what the most cost effective setup would be and thought others might be interested in the Lumens/Watt ratios for CFLs. CFL Lumens/Watt 105w - 65.714 85w - 58.823 (49.412) 65w - 52.308 55w - 65.454 42w - 66.667 40w...

2 to 200 Watt CFL You can get them here up to 105 watts.

Videoman is everyone's bro, as well as BTDT. I have been on this site for about a month and have learned so much from vets like these two guys. They are both assets to these forums. Let's be honest, you see that canopy of colas or that little elf guy and you know your getting good answers. As...

Are your bulbs true 75w bulbs or 75w replacements? Also, you need some cardboard covered in mylar, or something to reflect the light back into your plants. It looks like they are in the corner with just the lights over them. There is so much light escaping from the sides and top, so...

This is the kind of CFL you are looking for. You can find them at tons of places. You can put these in any regular incandescent socket. They usually range from about 5-42 watts, as long as this doesn't exceed the wattage limit of your light fixture, you are fine. I would go for the highest...

Is that 90 that I count? WoW :shock:

Thanks for the replies, I have cut a couple fan leaves on mine, but I'll stop that. I am paperclip FIMing them right now. It's very cool. .

Could you elaborate on why to not cut fan leaves, even if they are blocking bottom growth?
