Hey,new here,ive got 3 plants in a pot about a foot in radius,and plan on adding 1 more pot this size,and 2 smaller pots about 8 inch in radius,but for now just one 12 inch pot,with 3 plants,i just need to know what type of light would b best for these size pots,and i will have them in bathtub,so any kinda of light should b possible to do,thanks for your time,comment if you like
Bathtub. Good choice.
Are you thinking of maybe 400 watt or less? For about $120 in US HTG Supply has a 400 watt kit.
250 or 400 watt HPS or MH is ideal for the hobby grower who wants to be self-sufficient...IMO
...if you have the facilities for it?
Shovelhandle-is that something i could plug into regular wallsocket?im still new to the lighting,thanks dutch for your opinion,at what wattage do i need to have a converter for the lights?
Hydrofarm LKIT60 Dayspot 60- Watt by Hydrofarm...
This is the light im getting today in mail...i dont thinks its the right light,but i dont really kno....
sounds like a grow light to me. let's see. best of luck!
So you think this light will be enough to make buds?i might just buy several of these and string them up ...if thats the case....
I just looked your light up on google your not going to get far with a 60 watt light . Unless is is jus to get them out the seed ? Well like they say you get what you pay for . 60 watts is not going to grow you anything you will need like ten or more ove them to get you a nice vegg. I have eight fourth five daylight code on mine till I can use my 400 watt . Good luckQuote:

Different ? than lighting. Is a CO2 system really worth the price??
Yeah you could use it through the whole life span of your grow
Thanks thomas,im thinking for now i can get a 4way socket splitter,and get 4 good grow bulbs,im just not sure which bulbs to get...
42 watt warm white cfl lamps are good for the money. Check the big box stores. About $8 ea.
Nice,thanks,im bout to see if stores open so i can get some,wut does the 5500k mean on the light bulb packaging?does a higher number mean better light?
5500k is the white color, cool white (even though its actually a higher temperature, 5,500º Kelvin scale) this is good for early vegative growth. 2700K is warm white, 2,700º Kelvin is good for later, blooming growth.
Thanks shovel,i tried to get some,but i didnt have enough money,but i saw on amazon they got a 18"hps light allin one with ballasta mounted on the hood,i think its called sun bright,anyway,it looks perfect,only 64bucks shipped...not bad ...
