Cool man. Much appreciation for that bit of advice. Some people on this and other grow sites can be harsh. I had also forgotten that I have a 150 watt hps that I need to make use of...I am thinking rather than save it for flowering I should probably fire it up along with my cfls. Makes...

Well, what i should have said was I bought one for each...I had thought they were 100 watts each. So, I guess I'll go buy 10 more and add them...but, that means I gotta buy more light fixtures...money is tight at this point..ive dropped several hundred dollars already...ug

The incandescents are supposdly for growing...GE Plant light 65 and 60 watts...that is what i used to get them like they are....thinking i might switch back to them now that i know cfls are only 26 watts =/

Damn, i didnt think of that. You think I should use the hps for veg and put the lights around it? great idea...damn i feel dumb now

I also have a 150 watt hps that i had used for a few days for vegging before I realized I was wasting electricity...I plan on using it for flowering, just trying to figure out which are male and female, which is sorta sucking.

Bro, thank you so much for telling me that. I am on it now. Much appreciation.

Yea, but I had thought I was doing something good by purchasing 100 watt daylight cfls...I switched from incandescents...come to find out, these are 26 watt daylight cfls...im using a reflector as low as I can take them...trying to decide if i should switch back to the spot-gro, and ge plant...

Well, I currently have 10 in veg stage. I am sure after all the stress I have caused them that I will get lots of males or hermies? I would like to have an even amount I think...to be honest I don't even know. I sorta jumped in and am learning as I go. I didnt think they would all...

Lemme ask you this man...I had GE Spot-Gro Incandescents (150 watts) and GE Plant Grow 60 watts and 30 watts that are incandescents...they put out so much heat which is why I thought I would replace them with the "100 watt cfls"...do you think I hsould switch back to them?

The home depot was closing in like 10 minutes and all the employees were all up in my biz while I was looking..I saw "100 watts" and grabbed them...sucks.

Yea, I have a 150 watt hps...I'm really new to growing ANYTHING and I'm trying to figure out how I am going to pull this off. As of now I have 10 plants and for all I know they are hermie or males...I almost hope some are (not really) because I am on a budget and I really can't afford to get...

OK - I have screwed up and wasted so much money the last few days...hopefully, I can take some of my lights back, but for most, it is too late. I bought a butt load of Daylight CFLs that I had thought were 100 watts as the way the box is (you can see the box in some of my pics) marketed it...

I am interested in hearing from those that use Miracle-Gro Moisture Control for their grows. I am currently using it for 10 plants that are vegging.

I am using Miracle-Gro Moisture Control for my first grow as well. Keep us updated on what is happening. So far, I have experienced what is known as "nute burn" on them...some just a lil, and some LOTS. I found out from someone on here a bit ago that each time y ou water it releases...

Wow, thanks my man. Very kind of you to offer all that intelligent advice. You caught me just as I was about to walk my dog and I am amazed at what I just learned. You rock man. People like yourself is the reason I joined this site. I'd love to check out some of your grows when I get back...

LOL love it

I have the same issue with 10 plants. Please let me know if you find out a good way to do this...I am wasting so much money on these plants when I bet most are hermies or male. =/

Hey all, just random updated pictures of some of my plants..10 plants still alive, but some are really struggling.

Would you all use the Sylvania blue spot light or the daylights? I just switched them to 100 watt daylight cfls and two 25 watt soft cfls.

Hey Everybody - How goes it? I just took a few updated pictures of my 3 week old babies (give or take a few days for some of them). I wasted so much money purchasing all these GE Plant Lights (incandescent) and after doing research found that I am wasting lots of money for electricity and they...
