[mane2008]

plants thank you for the 2k

 

[DKskater75]

oh im sure they will haha is that the same for flowering too?

 

[mane2008]

you would want a lil for for flower but you good.
14k in the veg room? is that cfls

 

[DKskater75]

well 400 hps is 55k and i got 15 sq ft so its about 3600 each foot. should be good yeah 14k for veggin they 2 65w cfl floodlights, 7k lumens each...

thats good u can always add more cfls to your veg but just dont get crazy...shit ill add some cfls to the flower room being that hps gotta be certain distance unless you have cooltube or air cooled reflector

 

[mane2008]

now you are getting crazy why get those with almost 9k when you have 65 watts that are 7k each thats good enough you can use 2 dollar floros or cfls now you dont need all that for veg

 

[DKskater75]

cuz 2 dollar floros or cfls are like 1k each... and i could veg twice as many plants...

 

[wyteberrywidow]

oh you got a bigger space because the space you got now is good for your lights..but before you go crazy getting all these cfls think about if you can get a 250 mh you will be happier with that..

 

[mane2008]

yep and get some socket splitters and you good but a 250 mh like WW said would do you good, real talk cfls can get expensive when using alot, they like $10 each for the40w and then you gotta buy the $10 lamp kit unless you got lamps laying around.

 

[wyteberrywidow]

i only want to use floros to root clones as i see no other purpose for them a mh or mh conversion bulb on your hps will do far better than and cfl/floro so i would rather use 175(13,500l)-250(23,000l) mh for veg and go with 400hps to flower you will grow better crops supporting heavier buds

 

[wyteberrywidow]

unless your vegging time dont matter than hey go with your floros but you want quick growth go h.i.d bro

 

[mane2008]

i'd wait to ake any decision tho get a mh if you want next grow.

 

[wyteberrywidow]

mane what you use for veg/flower?how many plants you run at a time?any method you use sog,scrog,lst ect???.

 

[mane2008]

no lst.
hydro and soil
veg flouros and MH
HPS sometimes i this grow has been crazy because of situations going on here at home. too many pple coming in my crib but I stopped that so I'm bac to old shit.
got the 400w MH and t5's running now.

plants it all depends usually however many I can fit in all 3 of my HB and the 2 clostes i truly use for growing.

 

[wyteberrywidow]

s you flower in a five foot tall home box??how tall do your plants end up?how much you get in yeild a plant?mh to flower to i heard that give you alot more resin..imnot sure tho
