very nice dude! a 100w daylite wite should do perfect for now. only other thing i can say is watch out for stretching and stress on your plant, try get the lights nice and close cuz cfl's dont emit allota heat so it wont damage ur plant from about an inch away but put ur hand under and if it burns ur hand then too close. im gonna check your journal out now. Peace!

R.C.C OFFICIAL CFL FAQ


Q. Should I use one large CFL, or a few smaller ones?
A. Depends on your situations. Larger CFL's have higher lumens focused on a smaller "light foot print". An array of smaller CFL’s will have less lumens, but equally spread out in a larger "light foot print"

Take Care,

Can someone please elaborate on this? thanks

had to harvest these 3 1/2 weeks early just before they got big due to salt/nute build up in shitty organic soil...you can see how small the bud is and shess already loosing her nitrogen it was to late to save them and the soil held water too long when i treid to flush it was a last minute grow and just a complete mess not to mention a huge let down after all the work
