I agree.

Thanks for the info dude, will definitely keep that in mind. I'm hoping with fall coming, I shouldn't have too much trouble keeping temps down. If not, I'll just go with a bunch of 2700's, and use HPS for my next grow.(winter)

I've seen alot of successful grows on here with CFL. My current light fixture cost me about $30 (lights included) and I plan on getting a 400w HPS kit for(I'm guessing you meant "flowering") for about $130. The current lights I'm going to use for veg (26w x 6 + a few for side lighting) should do...

I've just put 2 easy ryders in soil yesterday and I'm already thinking about my next grow lol. Would like your guys advice on what strain(s) I should grow next. Strictly autos. Probably gonna do 4 plants this time. Thanks in advance!

Nice, that definitely makes me feel alot better. Thanks for the insight everyone.

Yea, T5 is the long ones that are in schools/offices in the ceiling.

Yea, I was planning on switching to HPS for flower if I can control the heat.. Hopefully those can get me through veg ok.

wow hermex, that is a beastly grow room!

As long as temps are managed, you can never have too much light. if bdog is right and they're 6500k, then you would use that mostly for veg, but I hear its good to mix up the spectrums. like hydro said, she will definitely thank you for it.

I doubt the color of the pots matter much. The reflection benefit would be so minimal that I don't think it would be worth it. Definitely wouldn't paint em if they already have plants in them. 28c which I think is around 82 degrees should be just fine. I will send a prayer to the Ganja Gods that...

Yea not much you can do now, just hope and wait. Hot soil may be to blame.

Thanks for the info, now I can rest easy. Well not really, time has been going so slow since i started growing, lol.

Ok good to hear, Thanks!

Here's a few pics of the CFL light fixture that I made with parts from lowes. 6x26w daylight for veg.

Whats up everyone. New here, looking forward to starting my first grow journal. My question is, I popped 2 easy ryder autos yesterday and put them straight into their 2 gal pots with FFOF. Im hearing this may be too hot for seedlings. Am I ok? If not, is there something I can do to fix or just...

^^^^what he said

Plants look good. Wish I could use hps/mh. I guess by 30 u mean celsius. Still not that bad. Im battling temps with just a cfl grow. Best of luck on ur grow dude.

I just germed 2 easy ryder seeds in 24 hrs. I put the seeds in water for 1 hour, then put them between some damp paper towels in a tupperware container. In the dark they went at ~78 degrees. Popped 24hrs later. Of course how old the seeds are is just one of may variables that will determine how...

From what I've read, everything sounds good, temps etc... hopefully you'll get some fems outta those. Good luck in your grow dude.

Ima noob, but....If you're growing autos, which it what it sounds like based on your op, I would do what frozen said. Get some cfl's and a timer to hold em down until you get back. Im confused as to why ur doing a 12/12 for autos though. If pheno, same solution, buy a light/timer or put in ur...
