honestly i dont know what species are they i got them as a gift from a friend.
im using a 400watt cfl light and a 100watt vertical neon.i read somewhere that its better to have light from all sides
well your of the hook for this week , but when week 4 comes i will be all over you about more light. an i never come to downgrade peoples stuff an i know most of us are broke an cant afford more shit whenever we feel like it. all that to the side , if those dont start fattin up like I want them to, then im gonna get on you about more light.

mine are about the same age an size an even look the same, so your with me on this one. i want to see fat beauty.

if i put another 400watt cfl.i think he'll do the trick.of course is not like a hid light.
i dont want to buy a hid light because i just want to finish this one and hid light are very expensive and you need a balast
i know about the spectrum of light and during flowering you need more blue light but ive seen on the internet guys who grow some nice plants only with cfl
wyteboi what kind of light are you using?
and also somebody was saying on my other thread that my problem comes from my tap water and i should put 1\8 teaspoon of lemon juice on a gallon of water(thx for your reply)

plenty of good shit comes from cfls. they are fine , it just takes a lot of watts to get the light you need. in my opinion they (cfls an floros) have a better spectrum than hps or mh , but like i said it really hard to get the light you need.

i use hps and mh for flower and t5s an standard shop lights for veg. i use reds an blues all the way to the end , i never use strait 2700k for flower.


your tap water has nothing to do with it..... firm.

another 400 should be plenty for a healthy crop.
