i need some help building and with my lights

DESCRIPTION

• Great for GROWING and CLONING
• Each fixture uses 65 watts of electricity but puts out 500 watts!
• These lights retail for about $42 each + tax.
• Fixture housing is WHITE.
• Plants will be much stronger and able to bear bigger and heavier fruit!
• PURCHASE MULTIPLE Light's for large areas!!
• 120v* (some basic wiring required)
• Color Temperature: 6500 degrees Kelvin (blue light spectrum). Which are great for thick vegative growth!

Does anyone know if i will be able to use these for veg and flower with these lights these are the cfls

could someone also tell me how i to build a hydroponic or aeroponic system

i really need to know the what to go buy for a hydroponics, aero,bubbleponics system and a how to make it

No, your cfl is only good for veg not flower. I don't know how to build a hydro, but just wondering how is it that you know how to make a diagram and chart to ask a question but you didn't know that the blue light is only good for veg? Sorry if I'm being a dick just wondering

jdub is right good veg light, bad for flowering. I've seen those lights and I believe you CAN get them in the correct spectrum for flowering (around 3000k), but that one there is a 6500K. And I think that If you need that much help MAKEING a hydro system, you'll have even more trouble USING said system. Start with dirt first.

i gat the diagram from a website that i was looking at

i wanted to know a cheaper way to make a system i know some ways and i need to use cfls because the cops have choppers were i moved to

you need to give up that worrying about choppers geez!! Hey fdd is still with us and he had videos of the choppers! Where are you? can't you get your card?

who is fdd and what card are you talking about and im from west virginia

fdd runs this forum. (his are outside) medical marijuana card is what I'm speaking of....maybe they don''t have them in w virginia. heres a link to his post.....you don't think this sh*t doesn't scare me? - Marijuana Growing I still wouldn't worry about the choppers unless you are doing some shit thats way obvious. stealth. They are not going to waste the time and effort on small time grows.

this is nice.

If you don't want to go that large you can do something like this scaled to your needs.

As far as lights if you do not want to go HPS there are alternatives such as T5/T5HO T8 T12 fluorescent. Keep in mind some alternatives are not as good as others. Alot of people are stuck on t5ho right now when in fact the luminous efficacy is not as good as the standard t5 which is cheaper. The 28w and 35w versions produces 104 lumens per watt. While this may not be on par with HPS which at 600w(most efficient) is around 158 lumens per watt.

CFL's only do around 60-70 lpw at MOST.... CFL's and t5/t5ho t8 t12 all produce low heat signatures comparitively to HPS. If you are looking at other lighting my suggestion is straight t5 to get the most bang for your buck(yes you will need ALOT of them). My plan would be taking about 2/3 of lumens that a HPS produces(600w produces around 90-95k lumens) so lets say 60-70k lumens of t5. HPS will lose those lumens when placed over 18 inches away to cover the plants(refer here to calculate exact numbers related to inverse square law of light distribution), however t5 can pretty much touch the leaves.

Make sure you get 6500 kelvin lights as well as 2700 kelvin lights so the plant can properly utilize the light it needs at given moment.

I would also look into reptile lights that are around 280-320 nm in wavelength to utilize while flowering. Their function would be to stress the plant to cause it to produce THC as a defense mechanism thereby giving you a stronger and smoother smoke.

How many busts have been recoreded in your area in the past 12 months?

Like |VPS said, choppers aint going to report a 600w HPS. Maybe a house full of them yeah.

thanks for helping me out if anyone has anything else post it
