So FIRST when I go buy them what WATTAGE of CFL should i buy...????I only have Mini 13 W CFLS at the Moment that produce 800Lumens Each and I cant Fit Really Long Tubular style ones in my box so thats outa the question... SECOND Can i Mix 6 2700K CFLS for FLOWERING with 2 5000K or 6000K just so i have more of the Full spectrum of lighting??? The TWO extra sockets i wired in is where id put the higher Kelvin CFLS..THIRD Just put All 2700K?? Sorry if im confusing you guys im confused to LMAO
Is money an issue? how about sound? would something happen if there was the constant sound of a fan running in that room? If not I would suggest a cool tubed 250 HPS. It will give you the results you want a lot better than cfl.
Well Money Isnt An Issue For a better result bud... The inside Dimensions of the unit are 30 Inches/ 15Inches. is there units that small?? If someone can post a link of a Picture of one or a Website that sells Them That size... Please And Thank You
12" wide X 20" deep X 36" tall. 150wHPS. 12/12 from seed/clone.
3 6" EB fans bought at Target for $7each. (but I think the computer fans put out more air) One on the bottom and 2 hanging. One blowing on the light and one blowing on 2 vent tubes coming in the side. Creating a suction. The bottom has 6 1.5 holes drilled out. There is a false shelf with a bunch of 1/4" holes drilled in it and cuts takend out the sides of the shelf. This is for bottom ventilation. Temps stay at 80 and himidity at 50%. 134cm fan sucking through a 4" pipe with 3 layers of carbon pre-filter cloth.
Take a look at the 12/12 threads you will get lots of ventilation ideas. I was going to do the CFL's till I read more and can't be happier.
I do have CFL's in the mother room though. but need to get more watts.
Paint the bottom, underside, black. this will help with light leakes. Or since it is placed in a room, add another piece to the bottom in the front that is almost to the floor. This will hep with light leaks. You can the air will get in, don't worry. Man, as I'm typing this I'm recalling that everything can be found on this site.
Now go get that 150W HPS.
I Would Like to know When there big enuff to take outa the cups and transplant into a bigger pot (Because My Vegg room isnt big) i need to use the plastic cups u guys see in my pictures.. So yea What size pot is the smallest i can use for for the plants that wont affect its growing? and while still saving as much room in my Dresser for Flowering..Because if i get 2 females from the 4 plants. I will clone the females and add more into my dresser so the more room i save the marrier lol Thnx people
I'm growing in a dresser also I have 150watt HPS mine isn't as sealed as yours is but it works I'm just about ready for harvest my room looks like ET lives with me
I am Going to Buy An HPS but not for this Grow... I wanna try it first.. With My CFL's...
