200 w cfl grow, by DANfour20

Well the last run went terrible, I ended up with just 14 grams dry from the two plants. Live and learn eh.?

I bought a 250 w HPs and I'm on like day 10 or 11 since switch and things seem to be going better this time. last time since switch it took 14 days for sex to show, this time 5 days.

These pics are from about 3 days ago, the cfl is just so I can take pics without banding. (Also used it for about 6 hours a day instead of the hps during veg to save some penny's)

Them light seem way to high well from looks of pic but they look good so far buddy well good luck hope I get least a zip from each one

Yeah I agree. But temps where an issue and plants where getting brittle leaves, I've got my light a fair bit closer now I re arranged and managed to get my fan below the light and above the canopy.



And some pics of flowers I took just now. This is the same pheno I grew last time.




And this is the speedy chilli, at least I think it is, could be blue mystic or caramel though.

I leave my tent open and have a fan Infront of it blowing back n forth helps to

I could do that for a week or two, but then they gna start to stink and I can't have that. Got the filter ready to go in soon as there's the faintest whiff.

Rite now there's a faint smell of Cumberland sausage lol Herby but not definitely mj so I can get away with it.

Temps are too hot with light that low. I'm gna drill some more inlet holes in my door.

I read the inlet should be half the size of the exhaust to keep the smell going through my filter, but my inlet is passive so I'm gna make it larger, I can always cover some of the holes if it's too much.
