I think that big CFL's are going to heat up your small space fast, just like a small 150 watt HPS or MH will. LED is the way to go, and there are some good lights out here. If you don't want to go through the trouble of building a LED, consider Kessil H150 spots. Two will max your budget at...

Led light is intense. I have experienced bleaching by dropping led's too low. I use a couple 100 watt LED's. As stated earlier, light spread and height is important. NOT intensity and close proximity to tops! Use a tape often, and measure higest point on plants or tops, to the light. Do this...

The distilled I use is 88 cents a gallon at walmart. I suppose it adds up though.

Good advice. As a novice, I have feared my local tap water. I have no tools to test it. So I have always bought distilled water, since I just add base nutrients or nothing at all. Now, I have cal mag plus to suppliment either tap or ro water. I am also using all led now. Why does led need more...

Is either one any better than the other?

Big bud and budy candy work well together. I like to introduce both together at 1/2 strength. If the plants look good by next watering, I up them to 3/4, and eventually full.

I just bought a bottle of cal mag plus. Never really had serious deficiencies, but want my new crop to be in even better shape. Bottle says 5ml per gallon. Should I mix it at full strength (5ml per gallon) I tested it on some peppee plants yesterday and they look green and healthy this morning...

I have a bag of fox farm ocean forest shipped to my door for $20.00 from Ebay. Yes flat white paint is cheaper and better. CFL's (23 watt) will do the job if you keep them within 2" of the plant. Problem is the more you add the hotter your little area gets. 3 plants will require hundreds of CFL...

I grow dutch passions blueberry. Top notch! Be sure to get feminized seeds.

Kessil should make a UVB light. This spectrum can intensify medical potency in the final weeks of flowering.

If anyone is into Playstation or Xbox feel free to add my gamertags. I'd love to play with fellow rollitup folks! As long as you don't mind that I am usually stoned while playing :-) Playstation 4 xXBlastIn2Orbitx Xbox One xXDroluvaxX

No just buy a 4" inline fan and carbon scrubber combo. The fan will pull the fresh air into the tent, through the carbon, and exhaust it out of the tent via ducting. That creates a passive intake, no need for two fans.

I agree, the key to growing is proper intake and outtake. Opening a closet door occasionally will not accomplish proper ventilation, and heat dissipation. Even Led's will raise temps! Even, without a carbon filter, you will need an inline fan and some ducting to direct warm air out of the...

That LED will make a huge difference. Make sure not to hang it too close. LED can bleach plants, if you see bleaching raise it. Also add all your other CFL light to the sides of the plant as close as you can get it. Plants should be observed in the days following nutrient watering. Look for...

I think you are borderline on light. 2 plants you are sufficient 3 is a little stretching it. I do three plants with 2 Kessil H350's and 3 H150's. You may want to add one or two of these for some added light cheap...

I use to use a couple of these monsters to bloom on a budget. $20 a bulb so 2-3 would be good. They do get hot though, so keep youre girls from getting too close! Your circulation fans should be aimed at them moreso than your plants...

What is your budget, I have some great ideas. If you were in GA Id give you my bloom hand me downs.

Not growing cannibus now, so everyone would be bored looking at my herbs and pepper plants, lol!

My verdict is out. Kessil H350 runs hotter than H150's. I had 3 H150's going in my tent. With purple, blue, and red temps were 77. When I removed two of the H150's and added one H350 temps rose to 82! Took out the H350 and put back in the H150's, and temps dropped back down to 77. Not a big deal...
