yep, but i also got some warm whites and im planning to try flowering with them as well....

 

[grow space]

So ppl, I purchased 2 more...Now i got 5 sockets(each socket has 2 bulbs in)...I also got like 10 spare lamps, with mixed bulbs ones are cool whites and others are warm ones....
I think i have everything to start a good yielding fluro grow...I havent really seen any fluro grows, but if You know some, please share a link or something...


Be blazed ya all.....

 

[smppro]

you mean you are planning on flowering with those?

 

[Genosyde]

you CAN flower with the warm whites, i speak from personal experience and you will be suprised how well they work. If you havent tryed it before how can you doubt it? I KNOW it works cuz thats what i used for my first grow 6 years ago. and it does work better than cfls imho. SOG is easy as pie.. i mean you can honestly take a 4 foot fixture have your plant on the floor of a closet have the fixture going diagonal on top of the plant and have alot of bud that way all across the plant...ive seen it done before

yeah i grew a plants from start to finish with fluro lights form walmart they are for plants and fish tanks it works fine i also grew with cfls and it is about the same except fluros they were a little lankier

thanks for all the responses...this weekend Im thinking of putting the system up im my shed...3 sockets on top, and 2 on the sides...
Il hope that i get a good crop from those fluro grows, what i plan to too in the near future...I have a cabinet cfl setup already going, so i will have some good plants to go under these wonderful fluros...


Do anyone maybe have some pix of fluro grows, pls share it with all of us.....



Blaze on...

I have only seen 1 or 2 on here and they were with t5s which are much more efficient, i dont think i have ever seen one with t8s, but good luck, just be sure and train your plants

I have seen (googel some shit) a t8 grow..Plants were vegged for a2 and a half months and then flowered(im growing white widow and so was the smae strain on that grow)...And the results were fucking beautiful, really, incredible i say..In all the dude used about 520wats of fluros, and i have a lil more wattages..i saw it on ICMag or somewhere....
So dont say that you cant grow a really good crop with fluros, cas U can...Thats how they did in the 70s....




Thinking of doing some work in my shed today....
Smoke on

 

[grow space]

Oh, and training your plants is a must do thing for sure, Like smppro already said...

 

[IAm5toned]

i was wondering when people were gonna get wise to t8 lamps... everything i see on here is all t5's... and they suck. t8's are they way to go... tiny and bright, and they've been on the market for 10 years now atleast that i know of

[grow space]

Oh, wait some more...Actually, the grow i saw with t8 fluros....The plants wasnt even trained or topped or fimmed or anything, and the results were still magnificent(but training will increase your yield for sure)
