CFL Mini cab Mini Scrog ( NEW MEMBER)

[T@ll T33]

HI Everyone here!! Lookin for some Advice!!

I Have a cab thats 3ft Tall 2 ft wide 1 foot deep i have appromitly 7000 lumens in it i have 2 surge strips on on top one on a 10 inch speaker which is the same height of my pot The on on top (l-R) 1 13 w cfl 900 lm. 1 incandesant 75w 1100lm 2 23w 100w eq cfl on a y adapter 1500 lm the second stip on the speaker has 2 75 w 1100 lm incandeant i also have a 8 inch holmes fan on it i have 1 intake on the left side bottome corner that come into the pot and an outake on the top right on the left side

Now i got some good dro and mid seeds fully matured from a friend and tried germin them in water and 10-15-10 and 30-10-10 but nothing happend with light on at day and off at night so i decided to get some tweezers to cut the pointer tip of to get a root tap to come through but still hasent so i decide just to plant them there is 7 mid seeds and 3 dro seeds i planted them all in one pot and they say you should but i want to train them to grow in a scrog ( which i have when the time is right... the soil is decient potting soil unlike what some people use but nothin like fox farm and sand mix with 2 inches of pebble gravel in the bottom for drainage

Is what i am doing alright i know its alot but i just what some advie and clear a few things up

the temp can run a little high but with the fan on its stays at about 90
I will post pics fairly soon but would LOVe a reply about what i am doing before hand

Thanx alot

so how i have 9000lm in a 3x2x1 cabinet is that enough? i wanna do a 1 pot trained scrog

cling film over the top, lights on 24 hr until tou see the first set of baby leaves then switch to the light cycle you want. I reccommend 18/6 but 20/4 and 24/0 are all fine for veg. hope this helps

could i substitute for a tupperware lid cause the plastic get crinkled in the small space

 

[wackymack]

u could use a tupperware container and papertowels to germ the seeds,put the whole on a warm place like top of tv or surround sound,computer,ect...

 

[T@ll T33]

weedman 1s advice

naw i already planted um but i didnt have a major root tap the seeds were just cracked so i planted them and was wondering i if should plastic wrap the pot leave it open or use a tupperware lid but i got a glass pot lid that is the same size of my pot and today i went to mynards and got 4 23w cfl 1600lm 2700k to replace the incandesants i roughly have 9000lm instead of 700 with the HOT incandesants in a 3x2x1 cab and my temp is perfect now without the fan on staying at 29 c hopefully i have babies to take car of tommorow

 

[T@ll T33]

dont have no sprouts yeat i have 10 seeds planted the 1st how look you think it will be?

 

[wackymack]

keep the soil around 75-78* bc it will help to get the roots developed quicker...ect...

heating pad will b a good investment till there a few in tall,then when u clone u use the heatin pad again

 

[T@ll T33]

i manged to put 2 bike holder u brackets on the top of my cab so now my sure hanges 4 inches 7 inches from soil tip of lights ( 6000L) 4 23w 2 5700k and 2 2700k and my other surge on the speaker i angled into the pot 2 2700k 23w cfls more go the bottom of the cfl is 4 inches from soil and top is 6 when do ou think i will get some seeds temp is 85 humity is about 50%

Hi T@ll T33

. . . . tried germin them in water and 10-15-10 and 30-10-10 but nothing happend

Did you out nutrients in the water?

. . . . so i decided to get some tweezers to cut the pointer tip of to get a root tap to come through but still hasent so i decide just to plant them there is 7 mid seeds and 3 dro seeds i planted them all in one pot

. . . . should have put them in small seperate pots. But leave them for now.

. . . . do u think i will get some seeds temp is 85 humity is about 50%

I don't think you need the light till they break ground.

Make sure they don't completely dry out because the temps are a bit high. My humidity was only 18%


good growing

and you still have the wrong bulbs. 2700k is for flowering. you need about 7200k for veg. they will work but not verry good.
and you dont just add the lumens of each bulb to get aa total. there bis still the square footage to consider.

yeah i did put it in the water for the seeds they cracked but not a huge roottap maybe 1cm roottaps

i also pot a pot upside down with the pot i have ontop so now my lights are 2 1/2 inches away from the soil the teps on the soil are now 78 so its looking better

i have 2 100 5700k bulbs and 4 1000 2700k and i 60w 7200k

i know they are for flower but i thought the brighter light would be better for my seeds and once i do get seeds i want the to go into flower at 6inches considering i have 20inch max with the lights for them
