i want to thx you all for the comment, i apreciate that !
Hey, i got a ?
What spectrum do you use?? (numbers), and is it best to cover entire plant with CFLs?
Also, what is the ultimate positioning of CFLs to maximize? Horizontal? Tilted? Vertical?
awesome grow btw... inspriing
the spectrum... all i can say is "normal white" cfl next grow i add 12 "cool white" 42Watt CFL
the ultimate positioning to cover the plant is as you like it depend of what kind of fixture you got, and how you are instaled, never get a cfl in place, you must always have to move them.
the 42w cfl have a 2 feet 100% eficiency and after 4feet is almost none.
just clean the area of Big leaf and alway check if the plant have light at the bottom... its not a 1000w.
make a balast like mine, open it and change the wires into, the original wire are made for 60w only/slot i triple the gauge of the wire.
and add a reflector (if you remark i aint have one)
on my next grow i add refector, 2 balast, 12 42w cool white clf and i remove those small cfl
In that last pic it looks like you've got some red stems, possible N,P,K, or Mg deficiency. Otherwise those pictures are absolutely beautiful.
No deficiency, i give them enough nute, when the leaf get old, the steem get red and more red etc.... its normal
