[Daniel Sunderland]

hey peeps got some nice pics of my babys at 12days flower lookin real nice! what do you think?

 

[darkdestruction420]

not bad, what are you using for lighting?

 

[RollUpMikey]

Off to a good start, good luck!

i got a 150watt sunsystem and a 400 watt cfl

 

[darkdestruction420]

when you say 400w cfl did you mean to say youve got a 400w sunsystem and a 150w cfl or are you maybe going by the incandesent equivelent watts and really youve got a 105 actual watt cfl and a 150w sunsystem?

 

[Daniel Sunderland]

well i have a 150watt hps sunsystem and a 300 watt cfl my bad i thought it was a 400 but yeah i use both together

 

[gilbert90605]

thats a 65w cfl

 

[darkdestruction420]

that still seems really small for a 300w cfl, does it require a ballast to run it?

 

[mr.notsogreenthumb]

Nice buds, whats the strain?

 

[Daniel Sunderland]

naw i got it a home depot its pretty big the two together work really well. i focus more on the hps it works pretty damn well if you replace the light every grow. i only use the cfl to get those lower areas

 

[Daniel Sunderland]

on is power plant the other 4 are a kush hybrid my buddy made

 

[darkdestruction420]

it cant be 300 actual watts then. 300w cfl's are not self ballasted. they require an external ballast.

 

[Daniel Sunderland]

one pwerplant and 4 kush and afgan hybrid my buddy made

 

[Daniel Sunderland]

sorry man you where right its a 68 watt cfl with a 300 watt equivalent it puts out like 4200 lums. still works pretty well cuz you can still keep it real close to the plants

 

[thexception]

very nice!!!

that not bad, it will help growth for sure. i have used big cfls in the past, but really imo for supplemental lighting your better off using smaller bulbs spread all around the plant.
