Buds for Less - CFL BOOK

Hey Garden Knowm!!!!! just ordered your book, cant wait , heheeee

NUmbers are in order here I love you. VV

Great book, ive enjoyed it very much.

Suggestion though... should have put a little about setting up the hoods because ive notice there are a lot of reflective hood questions on the forums.

Love the book though, read it front to back, back to front many times....

both my babies turned out male, your book dosent address any causes of this.... Is it bad luck or too much stress when they were younG???

bad luck...

I just went back and read pages vii and viii - on building the light rig...

THERE was NEVER a reflector.. it is just plain old bad wording...

I really apologize for the misunderstanding.... the good news is, you can do great without a reflector... I prefer to have the bulb surrounded by plants,.... Rather than lose one side of the bulb to a REFLECTOR...

hope this helps...

love

So, if you included the cost of the reflectors in the $100.00 figure..???
Sales figures?? VV

not sure I understand the question..

BUT I suspect a STORE bought reflector would be more than $100 by itself....

Hey GK,
just bought the book today....I already have seedlings in a bubbler but I am going to switch and follow the book. Do you see complications from that? Should they be fine?

Thanks

Hey Short,

Could be some shock...

Should be fine... be very gentle when handling the tap root, try not to TOUCH it..

cheers

my plants are lot shorter, and way more bushy then other peoples... i keep the lights really close like the books says....is it bad to have it so THICK, seems like i would be better if i was more spread out like others. (should i trim or not) it is like twice as think in the center now and just looks chubby. any ideas?

Hey GK where are you from? I don't know if you seen my new thread. Be back in a few hours talk to you soon.

Got your book, going to be doing a CFL grow from 'day one' in about a month or so, really looking forward to it.

Hey GK where are you???? You never answered my last post. I just set up a 80 gallon rubbermaid with 6 soil pots and a 42w Soft White CFL with a 10.5" Clamp on round Reflector
. It is currently my veg box. Just to root clones and put them into 12/12.

What do you think????
