I also think that I may have been knocking off the rooting hormone, so thanks dudes. I take cuttings of all plants in my profession but never with such care and attention as this!! I'd...

    Thats all I wanted to hear. I just have a shit load of them going right now from 3 different plants and some are drooping, some aren't. I thought that maybe I was moving them out of the tank too early i.e. before they had a strong enough root system. But they all seem to be alive and I guess...

So i'm gonna buy a 12v adapter, splice the wires and have one fan removing the air and another blowing accross the top of the plants. Just to say, they are only ever up in the 90's for an hour or two. Most of...

    Another question about CFL's...yawn!

    Ive never used CFL's so my question is this: Does a standard 2ft fitting bought from a hardware store take T5 and T8 bulbs or is it specific to the fitting purchased? Also how many 2ft T5's would any experienced CFL'ers out there recommend for 8 plants? Thanks again
