wow since yesterday she grown more than in whole past week , or even more.
Not sure about CF's, For my plant I'm using 4 4' shoplights with with 1 cool white and one warm white in each lamp totaling about 320 watts, not use about the lumens coz I threw away the packages the lights came in but I roughly remember each bulb being around 3000, give or take a few hundred lumens. Pretty much covers both spectrums of light blue and red, not as well as a 400 watt HPS would though, and would yield much more buds, But i'm on a budget so this was all I can afford and I am getting great results from this setup.
If your limited on space and cash, just do what you can, but be mindful of the light spectrum, watts, lumens, and heat.
Good Luck! glad shes doing better.
u use so much light for one plant ? is it neceserry to be that big ?
I could probably get away with 2 shop lights but i'm trying to get the most bud possible out of this plant and fluros dont emit as much light as a 400 watt HPS which is probably ideal. After this one plant is done, i'll be putting 5 clones under those 4 shoplights, probably add two more shoplights.
after flushing she grew well for 2 days , but now she looks like stoped again. I checked the soil and it's moist. I didn't do anything since flushing. can it be because of 24/0 cycle ?
i dont think so, i think its in a normal stage, plants take its time to grow
Could be the temperature? whats the temp in the grow space?
about 77 at the bottom and 86 at top (by the lamps). I don't see any decent grow for 2 days, well atleast they are not becomeing droopy again, maybe it's a lack of N or something because I didn't feed them since flushing. maybe I should add some ferts then the soil dries out enough ? by the way I added about a half inch layer of small burnt clay balls, so I would not not disturb the roots then watering, was it a good idea ?
oh yeah and I don't really like the color of top leaves, some are half light green/ half dark green, some some are dark green with some purlpe shade if you look closely, some weins are little bit red or purple.
I definetly would not giveit any more ferts until it is thriving. If it keeps acting sick flush it with pure PH balanced water. You can dry it by gently unpotting it and wrapping it in 2-3 layers of absorbent towels.
