Grow Lights Question - Free Weed Here!

[FootballFirst]

ok,ok. seriously. Buy SeeMoreBuds book
Marijuana Buds for Less : Grow 8 Ozs. of Marijuana for less than $100

It tells you how to grow marijuana on a budget. But the basics of his book are: plant in Miracle Grow, use 42watt compact flourescent lights,
(I recommend 3 per plant), lights on for 24 hours everyday, water when your plant looks droopy, when your plant has 4 sets of leaves begin the flowering cycle by buying a timer and setting it so you have 12 hours of light and 12 hours of darkness. After 69 or so days from the time the seed cracked you will have bud to smoke. But buy the book it is a day by day account of what your plant should look like.

Get a 250 watt HPS/MH ballast, really though you should go CFLs just cause your intro was rude, and I didnt get my weed either?

Remember to hang those CFL's about 3-5 feet away from the plants cause they are really hot....

Wow.... please dont listen to this guy.... you plant will be 80% stem trying to reach that light...

If you don't know, its not a big deal, don't reply with erroneous facts, your only leading someone down the wrong path....

Yes i know you were kidding cause his title made you mad (boo hu) still, no reason to try and make someone fail....

100 watt cfl will do you much much good at a decent price around 60-80 dollars.

 

[Snowman]

60- 80 dollars for a 100w CFL?? where ya buying from bra cause thats expensive!

 

[Reiffizzle]

Ok, so CFL'S then i will go and check them out on Here right now and go and get What i need. Thanx everybody for the help. And, theres really no need to make rude comments is there? Were all fellow stoners. If we cant get along with eachother. And just act like complete idiots weed will never be legalized. We need to unite. Not fight KEEP THE PEACE. and please no more rude comments

WTF Are you talking about plus DID YOU KNOW That you can be prosecuted for even giving another grower advice.
So for all we know you could be a cop

 

[oddjob206]

look it up.
100 WATTS not equivalent wattage. a 23 watt bulb says "equivalent to 100 watts"

you pay any less then 50 or 60 dollars let me know id be more then happy to go right out and get one.

 

[Snowman]

I wasnt tryin ta be rude, but he ya go man. 105 Watt Compact Fluorescent the 200 watt bulbs a like 60 bucks but tha 100 watt bulbs are cheaper

 

[Snowman]

oh and reif man, dont try ta be startin stuff in the threads like that bra. Tha kid just needed some advise. And even if he was a police officer, what would he be able ta do through a forum? track ya via ya IP adress? No need for them types of comments bra.

 

[Skitzotic]

Well, i now have 5 23 watt cfls 1600 lumens, the twisty kind. All together that equals out to over 100 watts. Im buying 2 two-part light fixtures to put on the side of my plants. and one other one to put right over them. But i hear u can keep them an inch away from those lights. But for now i have my 3 that have sprouted and propped them up under a lamp with one of the bulbs in them, and there probably about an inch away from the actual light. The inside of the lampshade is all nice and white and a bit shiny. and i have it all set up in my new grow box i made. out of my dressar. and im gonna make a homemade co2 pump. i think it is co2 pump. so it has the light and the co2 for photosynthesis. should they be fine like that over night

 

[Snowman]

sounds good bra be careful wit tha co2 though, too much isnt good lol

 

[oddjob206]

I wasnt tryin ta be rude, but he ya go man. 105 Watt Compact Fluorescent the 200 watt bulbs a like 60 bucks but tha 100 watt bulbs are cheaper

everything is cheaper online.
i purchase from a shop so i prob pay a little extra.
but ya youre right.

After 69 or so days from the time the seed cracked you will have bud to smoke.

You sure about this? I would bet a decent amount of money that he is going to need to wait longer than that. Figure 2 weeks for vegging, 8 or 9 for flower, and another one or two for drying.

I'd say that is kind of close, but probably a little underestimated. And snowman, why are you calling everyone bra? Try saying bro. It makes you sound infinitely more intelligent than bra.

 

[Skitzotic]

how often should i water them after i get what to totaled out to be 115 watts at 8000 lumens all together. And should i still keep them an inch away then to? atleast the 1 on the top.? or mabye i'll put 2 on top. and one on each side and one on the back. im not sure yet, if someone could answer these 2 that would be great. and also i will be starting a grow log. so in about a week or so look it up.

I have tomato plants under 8 40w tubes 2 42w cfl and 1 85w cfl something like 90k lumas total. the plants seem to love it

 

[[email protected]]

using cfl's they need to be about 5-8" off the plant. at least these 42w do the 85w a min of 8" the plants take the heat a little beter when they get older

 

[Skitzotic]

Yah, but also u gotta keep in mind, there only 23 watt bulbs. but theres 5 of them.

 

[Snowman]

And snowman, why are you calling everyone bra? Try saying bro. It makes you sound infinitely more intelligent than bra.

What da you care if i say "bra" or "bro"? Maybe I was raised in a place they called people bra more than "bro"

 

[Skitzotic]

But, anyways, there gonna go outside for flowering. i dont have the wattage for a good flowering. but the light cycle around here is really good. i should be able to harvest by september because of the weather.

 

[Snowman]

sounds like ya got it unda control man _
