Hello,

What kind of light are you using? What is your lumen output? I have a small closet 2' x 3' x 8' tall. Can I go with a four light bank of 2' high output flows (t-5) (9000 lumens total). Will that be enough light for lowryders to bud? Also, can you smell the plants? Are they stinking up your home enough to alert anybody? I live in a small apartment.

Thanks,
Mark

ok i had them under 3 cfl with equaled to 54w of true light but the output was 300w.
i now have them under 125w of m/h
if i was you id go for one of thos big cfl that is a true 200w of a 250w hps if you want sum big yeild jst make sure you have gd extraction
and the you only get the odd smell when waterd or touched

Thanks Home Grower,

Okay, the smell was my main concern. I'm only going to germinate four seeds at a time hopefully to get one or two females. So I guess with two plants I won't have to worry about excessive skunk. I've been doing a little homework on lighting. Heat is a major consideration because my apartment is small and I live in the south. Soo, I'm going to have to pass on the HPS and M/L. I've seen these "bundled" compact high output screw-in type fluorescent lights that offer 125 watts and 8500-9500 lumens. I've seen a few others that are 200 and 400 watts. The primary coverage area is 2' x 2' so I'm thinking that will be enough. What do you think? Any comments or input from other members?

Thanks,
Mark

Hi, I remember you on OG boards. Good to see you here. I know you got a lot of your questions answered there before the bus wreck LOL. Looks like things are going better but I see you haven't updated your light situation yet. Well good to see you and good luck. Are you still with the girl who called the cops on you?

if you have ebay you can pick those big ass cfl's pritty cheep.
im not sure if it was me on over grow you saw but i was there alot .
i like the cfl's thats y i stick with them im just waitiing to go get a extractor fan so i can eiather sick my 250 hps my 400w m/h in there to finish them off .
im thinking of making a cooltube but as overgrow is down i carnt find a good link for making it ..
nah i got rid off the plants andc everying that pointed to me growing so it was a waste of time for her to do so and she got a shock when the cops charged her for wasting there time ..:rasta:

P.S pepole dont let any one bitch about cfls coz its wot works for you if you have used big ass wattage them thay are shit but to us small time growers there kickass ...

Yeah it was you,I remember. First off your not going to use the m/h for flowering. You can flower with it, but it is primarily used for the veg. growth to keep the plants somewhat short and full. There really isn't enough red spectrum in m/h's for good flowering. As I say this I imagine there will be a few that will scream they use m/h for the whole grow. Though it doesn't make much sense to wait. You can make a cool tube but it is hard to do on a m/h bulb. Usually for a HPS bulb. Yhe m/h has a 4"+ width in the middle. For the HPS you get a PYREX baking tube and them clamp it to the reflector and clamp a hose to one end and some people then bring fresh air in the other end.I don't because my grow area stay relatively cool. Good luck!

ok im only using m/h for now till i get my extractor in the post
then il be using my 250w hps ..im not to sure about any heat probs yet but i just like the look of the cooltube as its a space saver to as i can get a bigger light closer to the plants..iv managed to get hold of a camara so i hope you enjoy them .

p.s. remember thay have only bin under 54w of cfl's and for the last 4days under 125w of m/h

Dude, hate to tell you by your pic's your plants are already flowering. With the setup you have there is no way your not going to smell them. Your "extractor fan" is only going to complicate that issue unless you have a way to duct it outside or run it through a carbon tube. I'm shocked it isn't a problem now! In your situation you should build you a c-13 cabinet grow. Then stealth it up and you can keep it small and under better control. Good luck! Just curious are they in flower and is that little cabinet light proof? Good luck!
