Now your just spittin straight bullshit. I've seen people (in Texas, in highschool) vegging in complete darkness, other than a single 60-80w halogen bulb in a desk lamp. And their plant got like a foot and a half high. If a 80w halogen can do that much by itself, I'm sure a 400w halogen will be helpful to my over 500w of fluorescents :dunce: .
I'm not comparing shit. Buck is. :dunce:

I encourage you to prove myself wrong..
:lol: :lol: :lol: Whatever. Click my sig link, that was some DANK ass shit that came from reggie seed. You're hatin for no reason. Just click the link :dunce: Proven wrong :dunce: Just keep up with the grow and in the next few months you'll see some dank dank.

you seriously dont think 400watts of cfls is enough light for those seedlings? they arent even actual plants yet, they are still in the sprout stage...im not wrong, ive been growing longer than youve been alive most likley. they are NOT yellow because of the lights, or not enough lights, i do know it can affect color, im not stupid, but that ISNT the reason here. it is what it is, im offering you advice, telling you why your plants are getting necrotic, take it or not, i dont care, but dont put out misinformation like those plants are yellow from light, or lack there of, ive grown bigger plants with less fluros than you had and my plants were always dark green and very healthy

buck theres no point in trying to help him, no matter what you say he always just thinks hes right.

I posted this back at the start of his journal and I also said "It's his grow and our entertaimment"

The other guys on here are only trying to help but you have played it off like the typical young fellow that’s knows it all. There are two basic ways to learn in life 1 learn from trial and error and 2 learn from someone else, both are good but the latter will be quicker.

I have worked with these "types" all my life. Don't try to change them, just leave them to learn the hard way.
His plants will grow no matter what he does to them, they will have bud and it might even be worth smoking “just look at his other grow”he can grow, the only question here is WAS THE YIELD REALLY WORTH IT”.

If I paid for a Porsche I except a Porsche, not a K-car.

You guys keep acting like I'm new to growing... Looks like it's time for show and tell now :D Update will come in like a hr or two, once I post these pictures, and it warms up a bit here. 7:30am in Colorado is cold for a sick mofo... Show and tell will be in a moment though...

This plant was a Qrazytrain seed, which I got (strangely) in a bag of some of the best bud I ever had while going from dispensary to dispensary in Denver. This bud was the only new seed in the grow (I grew 3 plants total), while the other 2 were clones and got much larger. I 12-12 from seeded this plant, and it only ever grew to be about 9 inches tall, with one tiny bud on top. But this tiny little bud, was like a rose. That plant worked on nothing else, and gave me one of the most beautiful (in terms of smoking not necessarily visual, though is did have pink and orange in it, making it visually appealing also, I wanted to smoke it the whole time it was growing) buds ANYONE ha ever seen in their lives. It was amazing. I learned from that "Mistake" too :lol:

This is that same friend who grew the purple bud (Purple Urkle), which I learned from by helping every step of the way on 2 separate grows. This is some more shots of his Purple Urkle, and some Agent Orange. :DP1020086.JPGP1020087.JPGP1020088.JPGP1020089.JPGP1020090.JPGP1020093.JPGP1020098.JPGP1020099.JPGP1020100.JPGP1020101.JPGP1020102.JPGP1020103.JPG

I also blew the glass in the pictures above. I took a class, and actually I have a weed invention that I will share with everyone when I feel ready :D

For the Followers of this journal that don’t know the difference between WHAT ONE CAN DO and WHAT ONE SHOULD DO, to have the best YIELD POSSABILE for the TIME AND MONEY spent to grow cannabis.

You shouldn't use regular incandescent bulbs ("grow bulbs") or halogens to grow cannabis, this type of light generates huge internode spacing, poor vegetative growth, skimpy yields, and could set your grow room on fire due to the dangerous amounts of heat these lights produce. Spend your money wisely, invest in Fluorescent lighting (good), or High Intensity Discharge lamps (HID-- recommended). HID lighting such as Metal Halide (MH) or High-Pressure Sodium (HPS) supply the high-intensity light that cannabis needs for good growth and large buds.


Q: Do halogen bulbs have a good spectral output for plant growth?
A: No, the spectral plot output of various halogen bulb types is by far the worst.

Q: Are they efficient at generating useful light for plant growth?
A: No, the best floro/hps/mh lighting each being approx 5X more efficient at plant growth than halogen.

A good way to measure plant growth efficiency of different types of lighting is PAReff. PAR stands for Photosynthetic Active Radiation: the wavelength range of light between 400 and 700 nm that can be absorbed by leafs for plant photosynthesis. PAReff is the PAR/Watt efficiency ratio over a certain area

People usually choose halogen for the "low startup" costs of a halogen light. The real costs of halogens result from its low efficiency. 500 Watt halogen lighting produces about 0.08 Watt/s/nm in the green-yellow spectral region which is about the same as 80 watts of cfl's.
