I really don't know if it would be enough. It would probally work. Another alternative would be going to wal mart and getting a couple cfl's in the orange spectrum.
Yea that ought to work...the only problem I foresee is that since it's 4' long it's not exactly concentrated on that one plant like a CFL would be...but I still think it would work.
You take a single clone, and shove it under 12/12 to determine sex of the mother. By the way, for sexing plants, would 10/14 or 11/13 be more effective for quicker sexing?
Ive read if you take a clone from a flowering plant it loses some of its genetic stuff. It was explained like this, "if you print a copy and copy that copy its still the same thing, just less clear"
