Hi growers and smokers this is my 2nd grow, first successful. i'm using 2 x 85w blue spec cfl's, i'm growing in canna coco soil. The seeds are from nirvana and they're only regular not feminized, i was going to use them outdoor but with the rubbish summer we had in the UK i though f**k this shit i'm just going to build a grow box and use them that way. they're only seedlings at the moment and i'll post pics tomorrow, any questions just ask.

Sounds good man, subd to this and your previous grow. When did they sprout ? Which pot size are you going to use ? Same pots as the previous grow ? Hope both end up being female ;)

nice work man i saw your last grow, just wondering if you got some advice for me, i want to grow 4 plants, should i get 1 300w dual spectrum cfl and hang in the middle of the four plants, or 2 85w, and have 2 plants sharing 1 bulb, or get a 250w cfl being shared by the four plants, and get a red spec 250w for flowering? cus i heard alot about needing the light to be all round the plants. cheers man good luck i will follow this grow x

I'll upload pics tomorrow, i'm having problems with low humidity and the plants don't seem to be really getting bigger but i'm going to put a bowl of water in there with a sponge floating in it to raise humidity.

i would say upgrade the 2 bulbs to 125 watts both blue spec and then once the plant starts flowering, add one more light socket and run on 1 blue spc 125w and 2 red spec 125w

I'd say at least 60w per plant but the more the better and what you heard is right.
