Yes, you put the cycle down to 12/12.

Make sure the dark cycle is completely dark, and not interuppted.

You can use your CFL's. Better to get a red spectrum CFL, but im sure you'll be able to get decent yeild from the ones you have.

I second the completly dark, but I don't agree on the red spectrum CFL's. You might want to get some decent HPS lights for a decent yield.

sorry tried to edit it before but it's not letting me so i have to post again, when i'm making my closet dark can i use like some trash bags over the seams of the door to keep it dark and i should only check for males and females during its light cycle correct?
