Yes? Lights should be farther.
No? Lights can stay, or move them closer.
Hey Gunther,
The florescents could be a little closer. I usually try to keep them at 2 inches or so. Defiantly closer than 5".
I use a 400 HPS at 12" with a fan blowing between the buds and the light.
I have 2 150 w sodium lights. How many plants will they support in flower stage??
Also with watering....How often do you guyz water and how much?
Thanks
I would probably have 5 plants ... Maybe 6..!:)
Watering is a little "art" you have to master.. Know you're plants!:p lol
If you water to often, you'll "drown" them, and if you don't water them often enough, they will dehydrate!:)
You'll figure it out!:)

I love this subject.. but you guys already gave all the good answers..
CLOSER means BIGGER BUDS!!!
ADD FANS!!!!!

Hey man, thanks for bringing up this topic.
I always have my light higher so the buds will stretch up toward the light, then bring it down about 12 inches away once there pretty tall to make them fat. I could be doing this wrong, and maybe im just wasting light by having it up high. Could anyone tell me if thats a good way of if i should just keep it low the whole time. I just figured if it got closer from the start of flowering they would be fat but stubby.

Well, how far away from the top Bud, would you reccomend having my hps. How will they get big if my light is right up in their ass? Thanks for the advice GK.
