Riight, no one seems to want to give their two cents for a change. Funny you sent me a link for that because I was just checking that thread earlier today, you have someone beautiful flowers, very deep vibrant healthy colors. I'm glad to have someone who can grow like that helping me out, I...

Oh well, went with the 250 watt. I guess Ill see how it goes.

78 views and no one can give a little input? it'd be nice

Hello to those who lurk the cfl forum. I have a question that I need answered as I am planning a trip to the local hydro store today. If I were to keep 2 mother plants in a tent together would a 250 watt easily keep them growing fast enough to take cuttings from once every 14 days? Also would...

I am very sorry to hear you were in a wreck. Best of luck on that future operation, can't be cheap. I am sure running a business is no small feat on it's own let alone being what sounds like pretty badly injured while doing so. I will run my fan during lights off, was planning on doing so...

I see the importance of air movement so there can be C02 absorption through the leaves, But is the absorption of Co2 caused by photosynthesis? if so why would they require air movement in lights off. I understand the need for a strong air current to bulk up stems so that the branches can put on...

I know what you mean when it comes to posting from a phone, and my wires get crossed all the time, just make sure they are never important ones, aha Anyway, I just changed my timer to 12/12 when the lights went off at 2am I plan on going to the hydro store today to get that 250 watt feliz cfl...

I'd say the conditions were not likely ideal, as I had them outside in oregon... Temperature fluctuations were something like 15-20 degrees at least, 55-65 at night, 75-80 during peak sunshine. seeds were in organic miracle grow soil that later I came to find out was not meant for container...

HA, my tent sucks inward much more then just slightly on my 2x4 with the cooltube and 1000watt mh I'm just worried about the soon to be mother tent, It would only be 250 watt cfl, couldn't be too warm. Best I could do for air movement in the tent would likely be a small oscillating fan on the...

I could be off base here, but in the natural world, are there not going to be a large number of marijuana plants growing in the exact same conditions that turn out both male and female regardless of environmental factors? I agree that you can herm a plant through stress of changing light...

You think the dome is needed? I have read that keeping the leaves in a more humid environment makes it "too" comfortable so it takes longer to root cause it has very little moisture requirements. And as for keeping the cutting tips just out of the water, is that to prevent root rot? I saw an...

aha, had little space to work with and the mh was set to 500 watts and was about 3 feet from the clones. Still overkill I know, but I didn't have a cardboard box to convert to a tiny clone box at the time. I had planned on stapling mylar to the walls but figured that would be overkill as well...

By exhaust with passive intake you are saying that I need an outtake fan right? Just no intake, that is the way my current running tent is. Carbon filter at the top ducted to the cooltube hood ducted to the ceiling of the tent with the fan sitting on top of the tent.

Alrighty. Thanks for the advice, I'll get right on light proofing my bubble cloner. And I'll remove it from the time so the lights on 24, also the light for the cloner is simply a 43 watt warm colored bulb, about an inch away from the tops of the clones. Enough watts you think?

I was thinking of just that. I have experience hst'ing and I have lst'ed before. I was thinking a screen would do a good job of making some longer branching for clones. I currently have clones bubbling on 20/4 lighting along with my 2x4 containing multiple plants from seed in party cups and the...

Hey, I currently have a grow going under a 1000watt mh in a 2'x4' tent tent. I've got 2 mature clones approaching there 4th week. I have another 1.5'x2.5' tent and I'm wondering if I could move those plants and keep them growing vigorously under a 250 watt cfl with a reflector?

Has anyone delt with a 250 watt cfl or one of similar size? I'm wondering if I will have adequate growth speed? Also, I don't have 2 fans so I am curious as to whether or not I would need anything other then a passive intake/exhaust? I would likely put a clip fan near the bulb so it stays nice...

It was a bit of a challenge to get them out of the soil only because the roots were so small and fragile, but I managed. The seedlings that were in that square are what are in the party cups now. And I am glad to have you on board for the ride. It always makes it easier to stay on top of things...

The reason for multiples in the single pot was I didn't have soil or party cups at the time, so I was forced to use year old soil and put them all in the same container. the soil is old organic miracle grow. aha And thanks for the response, I was worried it could stunt growth and confuse the...
