And 23w 2700k CFLs.
05/05/18 NL seeds sprouted.
18/05/18 LH seeds sprouted.
Potted in a soil/coir/perlite mix.
Nutes: PowerFeed, Seasol, MiracleGro and sulphate of potash.
4 NL & 16 LH Vegged until 25/07/18.
With lighting gradually being increased (more LEDs, bulbs upgraded)
Currently im in my second week of flowering 12/08/18, All sexed.

Haha I know right, thanks Blake.
I have a 600w HPS but the E40 ballasts i have are 600v 1500w -.- so id need an converter or whatever to use with Australias 240v outlets.
