Hey DST thought I'd post a few pics in here for you to see what a 70w MH can do since your interested in what it can do.

Looking good Toolage, and no apparant stretch. Be interesting to see how it copes with penetration when your plants start getting bushier.

Yea 2 or 3 of them are already starting to branch witch is awsome. I didn't care if they streached like they did because they just get more height because the bottom leafs won't touch the ground and that is very important. I thought I'd show you and others that it can do in those 2 days that the single 70w MH has done on its own and I think it might have helped save 2 to 3 seeds still because with the CFL they weren't doing very well but since I used the 70w MH they seem to be doing better.

That looks soo good. I wish I could have some of those strains that your growing but I'm kinda scared to order beans from out side of the country that I am in.

Most places send things fairly stelthily. And the main risk is them being cracked or damaged in transport, and if they are packaged correctly you shouldn't have any problem. There seems to be a lot of paranoia about seeds. But then a lot of countries don't allow you to import and type of seeds, regardless of the type of plant. It's a risk I guess but nothing major unless you are ordering box loads.

Thanks for the help. There are 3 to 4 seed banks in the same state that I live in and they are all 3 to 4 days long to get my beans from them

1 of them that a person told me that he's wondering if its possible and how well it will work is what if the plants were trained to flower under 6/6

If you do 6/12 you are getting an extra day every 3 days(if my maths are right) They need 12hrs constant darkness to flower. In theory u should use less leccy and the plant should finish quicker. Ill start a thread in the next few days. Ive got 8 under a 600w, so Ill add another 600 and do the 6/12 cycles

Well that's why I am wondering because they are still getting the full 12/12 per day but its like it gets split up into 2 days in 1 day. I'll have to find out how well 6/6 works or not.
