    quetion about lights

    once your seedlings break the surface of your growing medium use the fluorescent lights as these operate with a much lower temp than the hps and they won't burn your youngins as easily. once they start getting a couple of node on them switch over to the hps and you can use the fluorescent lights...

    How long before topping/cloning?

    1) there is no real minimum. most usually wait until you get at least a couple of nodes worth of growth. probably at least around 2-3 weeks. 2) most people usually don't top during flowering just because there won't be much time for the growth of the plant into 2 colas. i would do it at least a...

    How long to veg?

    i would let them grow to a max of about 2ft just because like growspecialist said they can double and sometimes even triple in size during flowering.

    400w or 600w???

    I would start out with the cooltube light and a couple fans. once you got those setup and actually start measure your temps. if they are too hot add another fan, ac,etc. you probably wouldn't want a dehumidifier because the plants require a good amount of relative humidity and the dehumidifier...

    400w or 600w???

    you can counteract the heat with that cooltube light. run ducting and a fan to it that way you can exhaust the heat coming from the light. also throwing in an intake fan to get fresh cool air in, box fans or oscillating fans to keep air moving in your room, and also an ac would work. I had to...

    thinking about a grow room...

    First off with a grow op that size, cfl's are a waste and a joke. 20plus plants goin you would need a shitload of cfl's to effectively spread out the light output. def get a 1000W mh or 2-600W for vegging. You could even use hps or get the switchable ballasts if so inclined. second for the...

    Mirrors?????

    mirrors are very good at reflecting light but they create hot spots on your plants that might burn them. use mylar or a flat white paint

    When to switch the lights on?

    leave the lights off until they break the soil surface. also what kind of light do you have hps, mh, cfls, fluoro? if you have hps or mh keep them far enough away from the seedling so as not to burn it. cfls and fluros don't emit as much heat but you must still be careful of them as well. i...

    about to start my second grow....questions and some advice please

    i think you've got your fans right. hot air rises and you want your exhaust fan to take out the hot air . if i were you i would look at trying to pick up a cheap hps light to help increase your yields like High Tech Garden Supply . also i didn't see you mention nutes. what nutes have you been...
