Hey guys!

Ok, so I have been reading on this site, a lot.

I was hoping maybe someone could clear some stuff up for me.

I am growing indoors with soil under cfls.

first off, nutes. what is the ideal #-#-# for vegging?? I read that you want something with high nitro, so I got 30-10-10. But I've seen a bunch of replies to people's questions with numbers from all ranges.

and second. I am growing under cfls. I am on a budget as of this momment, and have two 100w equivalent 6500k's and 2 100 w equivalent 2700k's. About mixing spectrums in VEGGING: Would I be better off running just the two day lights? or should I just give it all I can at the moment and run all 4 bulbs.

Thank you for your help guys!

The #-#-# that stands for N-P-K(NITROGEN-PHOSPHORUS-POTASSIUM) the basic building of plants.You can use the 30,but it's wiser to go 20-20-20 equal across for veg stage. The lights you're describing should be cool.

Hey man welcome to RIU. I would say go with all 4. Plants cant never have to much light.
How old are your plants? your nutes sound like they are good what kind exactly did you get?

I don't know exactly how old they were because they were bought as clones from someone. I have had them for roughly two and a half weeks.

the nutes are "Master Nursery" brand water soluble Acid plant food.

When your plant droops they are resting to build when the lights are back on.KEEP SMOKE ALIVE!!
