Yeah, I don't really know shit about cfls so I'll have to do some research, I did find a 6500k with a hood (no idea what wattage it was) and shit for like 25$, which is surprising. I've never looked into buying them and didn't expect them to be that cheap.

Right how many plants u trying to light up ? In my space a T5 Fixture would be cheaper to run , so for now and for awile I just use CFLS . I want a 2FT 4 lamp T5.

2 or 3 mothers, and maybe like 8 - 12 clones at different stages. The space I have right now is about 3 x 2.5 ft for veg, but I have to move the plants around throughout the day so they all get light. It's like 2 or 3 mothers and half a dozen clones right now. It's all real tight in there, but it generally fits. I was thinking either supplement the 2ft 4 bulb T5 I have with the cfls or just replace it with either a 4ft 4 bulb or a 4ft 6 bulb t5... It's really surprising how much coverage this lamp I have puts out, but it really isn't enough, especially since I'm to up the number of clones I have and move to a 600w hps from the 400w..

I do have to say I like the flexibility of CFLs . I just clamp it above plant and adjust accordingly .

Just the top and bottom to discourage fungus gnats . Sand works better on top but it drains too slow .

So far so good with Flo .Tuesday will be 5 days and she should need watering by then . So by the end of the week we should have some new roots making there way down to the super soil . If it's going to burn it should have done it by then I hope . I need to get my 1g plants into 3's but am waiting to see what this mix does for me.

I got to really looking into the Age OLD feed charts and realized I,m only giving them 500ppm of nutrient . What the hell , bumped them up to 1100 ppm last night .

So we will see what they do in a week with the increased nutes along with Protek and Liquid Karma . Going to feed the veg plants and get them going on that shit too. I was thinking about going with Botainacare Organic nutes , I,m about to run out ,but think I,ll finish out with the Age OLd and see how the increased ppm goes

(And that is where I screwed up .) note to self
