lighting for clones!?

cronotrigger · Nov 18, 2009

Guten Tag! I am thinking of doing something like 2 different grow tents each being about 3ft(L)x5ft(H)x2ft(W) and one of those was going to be the Flowering/Vegging room for about 3-4 at a time :mrgreen:

and the other for the clones. Im in-between using a 400w MH/HPs for the flowering/vegging or 600w. Either could work, i just havent made my mind up aboot them :eyesmoke:

but as for the clones will either of those two be too much? Also, i was going to use DWC but then realized it was going to be very tedious and stressful to the girlies (crosses fingers) to have to change the water out all the time, any one know of any recirculating dwc ??

Daylight spectrum CFLs and T5's work great for clones. You may wanna steer away from DWC as you end up using more nutes and changing the water in em is a terrible mess. Try low pressure aero, works a couple days faster than DWC on rooting and I think overall a much more convenient system since you can leave it for a week or so without refilling.

i also agree with the t5s ......... i got one of these for veg, and i friggin love it .. very nice piece of kit, and would be great for clones.. i would think that the hps would be way too much overkill for clones, and the t5 would do you much better for this....
