Hi All
I finally got a better more secluded set up I wanted to post some pics for sugestions. ANy helps tricks or tips would be greatly appreciated.
I am using 1700 lumans CF lights 5 of them I have posted pics.
I am leving them on 24 7 how long should I do this for.
I am watering once a day....
Any Help would be great....
I do not want to smoke these up before I smoke these up.... :)
Thanks
Hello,
I am not sure the amount you are watering, but you may want to cut back. Watering everyday can easily get to be too much. In my experience it is easier to overwater then it is to underwater.
Using just the fluoros your temps should not be bad so water intake would be slower. What temperature does your closet run at?
How far away are the lights. Compact fluoros are nice for their lumen output, but they loose their light penetration quite easily. Try to keep the lights as close as possible. I have compact fluoros that tuch my plants. Every now and then (depending on the strain) I will get a couple burn marks on the leaves touching the light, but generally I never have a problem.
If you notice a significant amount of heat coming out of your lamp hoods, you could drill holes around the top to them to allow the heat to escape out the top.
Congrats on the grow, what strain are you growing out. They do look nice and happy so far.
Take care.
Peace
THanks for the reply....
I have a second question....
It seems if I do not water everyday my plants do not look as healthy as they do when I water them all the time....
Also at what point should I start to shut the lights off
Right now they are always on....
As far as the strain....
A close friend brought the seeds to me with some treats from the Big Island ;)
I am really not sure what they are....
As long as I can get them to Bud I will be happy. :)
This is my very first grow I really want to go start to finish....
Thanks
Again
