The nice thing about CFL is you can pretty much put them against the leaves without burning them,.... well almost. :o


Your bulb to leaf seems "Maybe" a little close,... but you have 0 reflectivity on the walls of your cabinet.

Your sprout wants to grow tall to get into better light,... so give it better light,... put a splitter in there!

2 bulbs on a 45* vs the single bulb above will make that little sprout much happier, tho you will have to back them off just a bit to make sure you don't burn.


That's my take on it,... maybe there are some others that actually have a clue how to grow under CFL that might chime in here! ;)

[420SourD]

idk for sum reason no one on here like helping me besides you lol
and ive been tryin to get a spliter but seeing as how i live in buttfuck egypt and dont have a licence its a little harder i also got a 5 ft floro but i need to buy a new tube i think its burnt out or the whole fixture doesnt work not sure

Splitter,... from Homedepot.com

Leviton Double Socket, White - R52-00128-00W at The Home Depot (http://www.homedepot.com/h_d1/N-5yc1vZ1xhf/R-100356967/h_d2/ProductDisplay?langId=-1&storeId=10051&catalogId=10053)


It's a somewhat slow forum,......


Figure on the fact that from Germination,... where you are, to setting on to flowering it's gonna take what?..... 4-5 months?...... there's no real progress to report so no reason to be here and post/ read others threads,.... I just don't have a life. So I'm here reading,... and trying to learn how to grow my little girl into a monster.


I'm sure in my No0b search for knowledge I've said one or two (Dozen) things that are wrong,... but hell I'm not that much better off than you are man.

Maybe one day the experts will chime in and tell us what is wrong,... but in the mean time just getting them to grow is the main goal! :S5:

[420SourD]

yah me to every time im on the pc im reading up and searching for new stuff for my babys but other then the fact that my plant growing slow does it look like im atleast doing it right? the reason why its so tall is cause i started it on my window seal

I dont like using Cfls mainly cause i need a lot of them and i dont have room to do that but im thinking that just gana be temp while i make a better one not sure yet. But in your opinion should i keep using cfls or find a tube for that 4 ft floro

[420SourD]

hey anyone know if sterns miracle-gro all-pourpose water soluble plant food 15-30-15 would be good for my plants i just found a 5lb box of it laying around

I guess and answer to you previous question would be kinda moot then huh?:(



This is the #1 reason I've been doing what I have with my grow!!!!!


I'm 100% certain that if I left my plant out where my pets could get to it Chevy, (our oldest female cat) would not only dig up the plant, but piss in the soil and fuck it up too!!!!!! :mad:



Good luck on the next try man!:jointsmile:
