So, like I say I have 24w of actual CFL. Is that really enough... Been looking at a 65w CFL which I will invest in at some point just need to know if needs to be sooner rather then later? Remeber only got the one plant!

To be honest im looking at anything auto. Seem to be best for PC Grow. Looked at LR#2 and few others. Just looking for something with decent potency and high yields. Suggestions? I don't mind LSTing the hell out of something.

I hAd 2 cfl 24w(100 watt eq) on a y splitter n vegged 3 of them under that for weeks... Put em around and close to the light but not to close or they will burn... Make sure u rotate em so the get an even amount of light... U cud do it with one for like alil while though... When they get a few nodes then get a splitter and add another one... Get the bright white/daylight one with more k... If it's soft or The other one it should wrk... but brighter would be better for The veg I think.. I always did the bright when I did it tho mayn... Jus believe!!!!! Lol.. Lookin ehhh... Jusntry it grasshopper... The force is witcha :bongsmilie:

24w actuall wattage? dayymm...that puts a spin on things!

id get one of them asap tbh. will really help! thats the cheapest i found them having a quick google, with an E40 hanger attatched. The 2700K will be better considering your already flowering, technically. the 24 w will do for a few weeks but growth may be slow so will comprimise yeild.

the hangers you have now will be E27....to fit standard bulbs. The hanger you need is an E40. that ebay link has it included. Iv'e looked in hardware stores were i am n i cant find one at all....nor can i find any 100+ CFL's! internet will be cheapest. If your bulbs r screw in then this is an excellent buy...

if there those two pronged fittings u will need a new E40 hanger.

Man tbh... I hadn't grown a auto yet but my boy grew sum auto ak 47 Hindu... That thing prolly threw bout 5 gs on some cfls N got bout no more then 10" if that...I think it was alil shorter.. atleast his was.. But he had like 3 spaced out n not as close as it need to be to count... It wasn't that big man n dint yeild alot... He grew it wit 2other plantss 2... I have some taiga seeds though... An ol friend said it was decent n to give I a shot but I'm not growin at this time so there posted up right now... Here's some I would try n heard a buzz on... Easy rider... Auto diesel Ryder... Taiga.. Sagamarthas yumbolt rider wuteverits called... Lowrider2.. Cnt think of others...oh n smurfberry... That shit seems like it wud be potent... Also keep in mind that ur usin cfls so ur yeild might not be equivalent to wut they say... Grow a few bitches tho n u might get a decent smoke yield ...

I might just get this:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/300w-Red-Spectrum-CFL-grow-light-hanger-Hydroponics_W0QQitemZ280461630973QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_HomeGarden_Garden_PlantsSeedsBulbs_JN?hash=item414cd0ddfd

Will 300w be enough for 2 plants? Plus I will still have my 24w worth of air purifier bulbs. Im going to pop out soon but looks like credit card going to take a beating. I mean I do not really want to get the 300w unless I need too. I am thinking just making do with the 125w and my air cleaning bulbs, is that enough for 2 plants?

id say the 300w is gud but maybe abit overkill...the 125w plus ure CFl's will be sufficent. i only used one 125w. take in mind these bulbs r big...the 300W is likely to be huge...and even tho cfl will kick out alot of heat. id say go for 125w buddie.

Thanks for the advice. I like the way you think...partly because saves me money! haha. 125w enough for 2 plants or possibly 3 at a later date? was looking at a sea of green method at another time.

I say yeah too as the other cat... 300 watts is gud... And I'd give ur 125 and ac bulbs a try... Keep em close with out burning... I think it's a Gus chance something will happen cap'n...

Great news. I just contacted the guy to see if I could get a next day delivery so waiting to see if he will. Think be like £30 including next day delivery hopefully so worth doing. I will make a grow journal maybe tommorow when put new bulb in and take new pictures etc.

I was sayin the 300 would be gud for the 3rd plant as well later... Nmi dnt think u could ever overkill light... More light more bud... Jus make sure it's decent temps in ur spot bro... and Do u mean 125 watt output cfl... Or a 125w cfl that puts out more?
