I'd go with a CMH. Good for veg and flowering. 15"x15"x19.7" if I converted right gives you 1.5 sg.ft. A 70W or a 100W would do good. Or you could go with Cfl's.

Mine germinated pretty quickly by putting them in a wet towel inside a little plastic case.
I taped the case to the top of my computer lcd, it provided just enough warmth, 2 out of 4 seeds that were 3 years old germinated.

hi there everyone!!! im in need of some advice and would greatly appreciate any. i started my grow last night at about 8 pm. using 6 clones from my local co-op. I'm using grow big nutes from foxfarm. woke up this morning at about 6am and leaves are drooping. I'm using a bubbleponic system and i think it just got over watered. leaves droop heavily and top ones look a tad bit yellowish. this is my first grow and i want to make it count! please help!!!!
 
I have a question. We're using florescents in our GB and with the weather getting cooler by the day and the fact that we don't have central heating in our home, we need to know how to make sure our plants are warm enough. Any suggestions on heating the GB?

This might be a little off topic here, but here goes.
I'm looking for low-cost/no-cost organic nutes to use during flowering. I have 4 plants 2 1/2 weeks into flowering. I fed once during flower using organic banana peels blended in a blender and fermented with lacto bacillus for about a week. Will this work? Any ideas?

I posted a thread for this but in case you don't read it i always need help :)

So I have only grown once before in regular potting soil and used regular liquid ferts and did NOT ph adjust any water (just used filtered water) and surprisingly got 3ozs off my blueberry, 2oz's off vanilla kush and 1.5 ounces off super lemon haze all from jiffy pot to 3gal to 5gal pot. Problem tho was my vanilla kush came out with an insane amount of seeds and my lemon haze turned hermie but not quite as many seeds but terrible taste and not strong. Blueberry thankfully smokes grrrrrreeaaatt and no seeds at all.

This grow I would really like to have no hermies or seeds! heh i'm hoping it wasn't the water but i did have a few instances where i stressed the plants a bit, specially the lemon haze when i repotted her, completely bent over 90 degrees. also i'm sure i did a few other noobish mistakes heh. My grow room is crappy and just uses cfl's 24h then i had a tent with carbon scrubber, 400w cooltube with fan for the flower room. I'll be using the same grow room this time except I bought a smaller tent for my flower room because i had to move locations and size was an issue.


So I want my soil mix to be easier on the roots but not too complicated. Do you think there would be a problem with using:

1/3 - potting mix (from home depot, rona, etc)
1/3 - perlite
1/3 - worm castings from hydroponics store


Right now I have 3 feminized seeds germing, a Great White Shark, Barney's LSD and Barney's Red Dragon. This is how optomistic i am lol. GHS's lemon haze hermied me before and barney's vanilla kush gave me tons of seeds but i have faith they'll come through for me this time!

I was going to put them into jiffy pots with just regular potting soil and just do the 3 part mix for the next/final 3 gal pot. That was my other question is it really important to go from jiffy pots to 1 gal pot then to 3 gal if 3 gal is going to be my final size, or can i just go from jiffy pots to 3 gal pots and still be ok? I know larger pots are better but I don't have the room for them in my new tent.

Sorry for so much info you know theres always a lot to explain when growing :smile:
