ok here's a rule of thumb,stick ur hand under the bulb if u can hold it there comforably without the bulb heat bothering u,U can get it closer.
Also sum advise if ur ganning be running 150W + cfl power u might just look into a hps for numerous benefits and u can get them for good prices at HTG.supply i got my 250wat for like 140ish

Not as hot as hps but still warm enough to fry some shit I am learning that with the clones I have going because I thought they needed more light an it got way to hot in there so I took alot of them out. clones are hard to get right though I think ??

As soon as you get it right it will be smooth sailing , just get through this batch and get rid of the problem before you start again , trial and error my friend.

Nahh man imma stick to the CFLS for a while espically since im having a heat problem, and i dont wanna get the closer becuase its already hot as it is
yeah i see o well better for me if there male ill juss take there pollen and cross them with my AK-48 makin my ovw strain of AK-48 x Misty
an a other thing i might add i think the reason for the stecthing is cuz i would take them outta my grow room due to the heat issues and put them by the windowsill u think that can be the problem??? i feel like i already posted this befor.... oh yeah my ak sprouted today so ill be givin updates every 3 days and i think i might have to throw some sand on top of my soil i think im getting kntas

yeah man i seen ur closes they are drooopy not sure if ya know but cloes like high humidity like 70% n shit and the higher the heat the less humidity n yeah i think there harder because they need slmodt perfect conditions n lots of care

dont snip the branch for pollen. it will die as soon as you do and the pollen wont be any good. i have a how to on doing this i can post for ya. i`m still working on it.
your plants may droop when you water them but should bounce back as they take it up. pay attention to that mabee they like it a little dryer or wet. see if there is a difference. i am still working on what amount to feed mine, they are growing so fast it keeps changing.
