    Weird one-hour lighting during dark period...

    Hi there! Just read somewhere that turning the light on for one hour during the dark period would increase the chances of getting females... can't find any reasonable explanation for this so I think it might be an hoax... still, as a newbie, I feel as I should ask before taking my own...

    How many watts should I use?

    The cfls are much closer than that actually. Maybe 3 or 4 inches away from the plants. Should I give it a little bit more distance? Yes, I have a fan that I turn on regularly to freshen up the air.

    How many watts should I use?

    I have 400watts, not 1000! I'm just asking if it is too soon to use it or if I should use it now!

    How many watts should I use?

    Anyone could tell me if it is too soon to move them under the HPS? If it isn't, how many inches should it stay above the plants?

    How many watts should I use?

    I bought a 400watt HPS for the entire cycle but I just don't know when to put it on.

    How many watts should I use?

    Yeah but I already had two of the fls, bought another two and the tube was lent to me by that friend of mine. I took this pic right now. It shows the most advanced plant, the tube and the 18watts fls. One of them is turned off because since I got the tube, I have no place to connect it. In my...

    How many watts should I use?

    I have one 400watt HPS waiting but isn't it too early for them? Only now they are grow their second set of leaves. In that case, how many inches should the HPS stay above them?

    How many watts should I use?

    I have 7 plants, about one week old, and I don't know how many watts should I put on them. I used to have 4 CFLS, two of 20 watts and two of 18watts. In the middle, one fl tube with 18 watts. The plants are in a small box (13in x 13in). One friend of mine who used to grow for 3 years, told me it...

    When to turn on the light for the first time?

    Ok. In that case I'll stop watering her (I hope) for a while. I already added a bit of soil around the stem to do something like that. just didn't repot it as I was afraid that could "hurt" it's root. Is it ok this way or should I repot it anyway?

    When to turn on the light for the first time?

    So... if I keep it watered with the floros, is there any chance it will recover? If is not likely, I can replace it another seed (I have a a few extra seeds). Will the vitamins/aminoacs. help at this time?

    When to turn on the light for the first time?

    Yes, it is watered and it doesn't look bad apart from that. 18h until flowering or should it go 24 when I start with the HPS? I only tried it now with the HPS because as I said, the floro is a reading lamp so I thought it would take forever. The other time I used a better floro (not mine) so it...

    When to turn on the light for the first time?

    Hi there! I'm starting my first grow (a few years ago I did so, but I had to give away the plants as the owner of the apartment was living with me and didn't like the idea that much:P). I've read a lot of different stuff on the internet but right now my biggest doubt is when to turn on my 400W...
