Moving the plants shouldn't be an issue parasite wise unless your running a completely sealed grow room as they'd still be inside your house, but be careful not to damage the plants. Generally though plants I've seen grown in windowsills tend to be pretty stretched. Probably what I personally...

You won't really need red spectrum bulbs until flowering. As for those two, of course the bigger one is better but in the description it says its a blue 2700k which would make it a red bulb not blue. Probably a typo but may want to ask about that. Basically base your purchases on the lumen...

For freshly sprouting seeds I usually put the CFLs about 3-4 inches from the tops and once the plants got a bit bigger and more hardy I'd reduce that to about 2". As for size, you could but if you plan on vegging for very long I wouldn't recommend it; personally I'd probably do 6 in there max if...

Depends a lot on the light. CFLs tend to not penetrate canopy as well as HID lighting does. Also depends on what you consider decent yield. Of course if every leaf is able to get full light then that would let the plant grow the most, but if you've ever looked at say a bubbleponics using a...

Black will help but remember light still reflects off of a black surface, it's just far less the other colors. By adding a crushed powder like black walnut shells you not only add a porous surface but also give an uneven surface for the light to reflect from so the rays are not focused.

I had a situation recently where light was leaking through my ducting and either caused a run of hermies or something unknown did. To fix it I painted the inside of the ducting with black paint with crushed black walnuts mixed into the paint. It's an old method telescope enthusiast use. Anyway...

Get some T5s in a space like that.

I just had a plant no more then two inches fully budding if that tells you anything. Sadly I had to delete the only photos I had of it due to someone using my digicamera and I didn't actually keep the plant because it was a waist for me but yeah its very much possible.

Keep it how it is, they'd grow either way but leaving it without holes is just like one of those mini-greenhouses people use for germination. Just make sure that once the seeds start to break soil you remove it so they don't water log and rot.

Adjustable blind holders generally work but it's hard to pull the string as they use small pulleys not designed for that much weight. Also make sure you get a fully metal one not plastic.

/\I just have sections of duct tape put in corners ect and then a nail with a large flat head driven into them. The duct tape will stop the Mylar from tearing and with the nail you can pull it nice and tight giving a pretty flat overall reflection. Even works with that extremely thin stuff that...

He's talking about UVB to stimulate plants production of THC. Though are you talking about that or a THC potentate.

Few things are of course perfect, but wrinkles will cause the light rays to bend and weaken while uneven parts will of course cause uneven light reflection. There was a thread about this a while back where someone used a computer simulation to accurately compare how folds/wrinkles in Mylar but...

It's called Sea of Green growing.

Why is it always 18/6 or 24/0 for veg. Why not 19/5 or 20/4

Turn the CFL sideways not straight down and even a 42watt would only be about 3 inches. Not to mention that more lumens are visible when the bulb is horizontal not vertical as it's a larger surface area. Also you really need to chill out. This place is about giving and receiving help when...

No. 10watts is not enough light to give the plant the energy it needs to produce foliage at an acceptable rate.

They'll be fine for sure. Just set up the ventilation tomorrow and be happy you learned something new regards to growing without killing your plants.

Bud wouldn't be produced this fast if pistols were not even showing a couple days ago.

It will take 2 weeks 17 hours. It's a plant, from a seedbank we don't know, using genetics we don't know, growing in conditions we don't know. Look for around 2 weeks but your just going to have to chill till its ready.
