well its all on you to be honest,i asked cause the bulbs are def warm bulbs,let me guess 3500k or 2700k? lol..well if your looking for some head smoke asap,go 12/12 from seed with 2700k..if you got time and dont mind waiting for a larger yeild,swap out all your warm bulbs for 6500k..or 5000k would be be fine also called "full spectrum cfls" or somthin. veg wit those on like 18/6 light cycle..wait anywere from 30-50 days,and flip the cycle and bulbs back to 12/12 with the 2700ks..hope i helped:bigjoint:
thanks bro yea that helped lol i have done some reading and some people are saying 70/30 65k to 27k.. i think i might just run that and see how it goes. Im def going for yield, so i dont mind the wait. Il prob run 18/6.. I just ordered 4 65k 42 watt so now im just excited to get these bitches. the rubbermaid is lookin better, I will post pics soon!

I seen you have 5 bulbs in your setup initially what are those bad jacksons!

yea def give it a whirl..you will be pleased. your temp will drop a few,the babies will stretch less and you will get much lusher foliage. yea,those were 4 3500k 42w and one 200w(actual wattage) 6500k..oh and also if you can find the reflectors for those fixtures big enough for the y adapters to fit comfortably inside,would be a plus..direct the light much better

Im fuckin up... So i germinated the seeds and popped them in with the warm 42watts i had, and well theyd didn't even sprout. What a fail. So i got the new bulbs and only two plants remain. They were both growing well untill last night. I watered them the day before, for the first time in 6 or 7 days. Then last night the leaves started this sidewinding look just the biggest two. I left it over night and this morning all the leaves are drooping down :( So i just have one guy left.

well at 40-50% its optimal..so just water down real good,and see how they are after a day of soaking up the water and light.
