I'm currently vegging 13 plants (2 white widow, 3 purple kush, 2 hindu skunk, and 6 shiva skunk) and 4 cuttings I just took today under about 500W of cfls. About 80% of the lights are 5000-6500k, the rest are 2700k until flowering where I already have the bulbs to increase the wattage to about 625W. I've been vegging these for two weeks now as they were purchased as clones from a dispensery (i'm a mmj patient). I'm using mostly 2 gal pots and a few 3 gals with b'cuzz coco fiber and fox farm grow and bloom. This is my first grow and I made the noob mistake of choosing an all-cfl grow from what I gather the more I research and hear about cfls producing light airy buds.
Right now my plants (the PKs are noticably more bushy and squat being heavy indicas) are all around the 10-13 inch range.
My question is two-fold:
Firstly, would it be a wise choice to buy one or two of these HPS lights with the intention of producing more dense resin-laden buds? Would just one of these lights make a difference in a grow area of about 10sqft? If I did this I would also keep some or most of the cfls. The wiring and such is not an issue for me.
Secondly, because I am growing in a closet (its a small walk-in closet with its own door in my bedroom) and am a tenant of a landlord that absolutely dissapproves of marijuana for all uses, any sort of ventilation modifications to the closet, window, room, etc are not a possibility (long story short, someone already tried growing at my place a few years ago and the landlord found out from a neighbor noticing ventilation coming from the window and fucked them real bad). I've got odor covered for now. That being said, how much additional cooling would these particular lights require without any ventilation beyond oscillating and table fans? Right now I just have one oscillating fan and it keeps the temps fine. Would it even be possible to have maybe 3-400W of cfls running with one or two of these lights and still keep the temps reasonable with just regular fans?
Any input would be greatly appreciated. Ive already shelled out a decent amount of money for this grow, but if those out there with greater experience than myself think it would be a worthy investment, I'm willing to spend extra on these lights. Thank you in advance.
