Flourescents for flowering ??

[pokherking]

I was wondering if you can use flourescents for the whole grow cycle ? i will attach pics, they aren't the cfl's but the long 4 ft. tubes.Also was wondering if you can succesfully grow a plant without nutes, if not what is best to get if you have no available grow shop?

Yes, it is quite possible, since I do it on a regular basis. I do note that the plants are a tad slower maturing than "advertised". But my harvests are satisfactory. You may wish to get some "GE Kitchen and Bath". They are warmer in color than regular tubes and I feel they give a better harvest.

As for ferts, skip the Miracle Grow- it ain't worth the price! You will get more bud, however, if you fertilize your plants! Ferts are covered in detail in MANY posts, so do a search and start reading! - Granny:hippy:

you don't need a 'grow shop' to obtain supplies ... gardening supplies are generally available at every hardware store, department store, etc ... :jointsmile:

yeah, i got all my stuff in this small town with no hydro shop. they sell hydro nutes here at a nursery and everything else comes from ace hardware. except for my blower and hid's.
