They are on 20-4 , tryin to keep them as short and bushy as possible.
The CFL lighting will accomplish that for a while. Eventually they'll outgrow the set-up, but in Florida it doesn't matter b/c you can always supplement with the real thing year-round. I use sun year-round up here, but I have original glass from 1906...but it's so damn cloudy I'm now using almost 500 actual CFL watts(that will grow tall plants but not stretched).

In fact, just took some pics today...I have 2 indoor set-ups as well. The second is run with 2 600W HPS.IMG_2571.JPGIMG_2588.JPG

Teehee, I know the CFL set-up is rather primitive(lights are raised). But it works temporarily till' I can start throwing plants outside again.

I'd go with 20-30 gals, then bury them just in case. I rarely train plants, only certain LR strains that stretch to high heaven no matter what. And therefore I'm not the best adviser in that department. I use Uncle Ben's technique under advanced growing, only for some reason I always get 5 main colas as opposed to the normal 4...somehow I inadvertantly improved upon the technique and have not a clue how it keeps happening.:-P

I see. How do you introduce into the sunlight? progressively?

Yes, but it's actually the heat stress more than sunlight which causes shock...particularly when you move contained plants from the A/C into direct sun.

The soil temp goes from 70 to about 100 too rapidly.

And lemme re-think the burying smart pot idea, I forgot to take into account rainy season.

Whatever you come up with as to negate stress as much as possible is more than welcome :)
