"Seedlings that recieve 16 hours of light tend to grow more female plants"
comon bro what book are you reading here?
jorge cervantes grow bible, 06 edition
Although i can agree with a lot of things Jorge states some things are just completely wrong. I have watched every video he has made.
i wouldnt keep my cfls as far as he suggests.
i use cfls and i keep them 4-6 inches away. any closer, and the light is hitting under my canopy and more on more floor.
The purpose of keeping them so close is light penetration.
ahhh gotcha! that makes sense! xD lol i thought the only reason was so that the sprout doesnt stretch to much.
This is true for seedlings, but when you start to have a few nodes the more light to the inner parts promotes better inter-nodal growth, ultimately making the plant more bushy
ohhh i see, right now i only have two lights on the seed which i recently planted. i will add the other two when it starts to sprout making it 400w, does this sound like something i should do? or should i add the lights now?
