does lst work well for blueberry strain?
Imma top mine...too many times seen that "low stress" snap a branch in haste.
when should topping be done, and about lights, will mv blubs work for flower?
I have a 2x6x5 foot high space with 3 mv 175 watt, and a flourecent, 2 bulb 40w daylight.
What is a mv 175 light? Is that mercury vapor? If it is mercury vapor, my understanding is that is not a good light spectrum for growing at all. You'll do much better with a single 250w or 400w HID metal halide (for veg) or HPS (for flowering) light. I've even seen great results here from people just using a handful of cfl's.
As to your current setup, I'm no expert but would have to say, no, that's not enough light.
my 3 mercury vapor lights are a form of hid lighting, highly used before metal halide came around. from what i've read they are excellent for the veg state but wrong spctrum for flower as they tend to be too blue. is that true and where can i find a 400w hps system? i havent seen them in any hardware stores
due to circumstances i may have to use my current light set up for flower. any ideas as to what i can expect or tips to improve with out spending a fortune?
i could alwys steal a street light
lol
yep you could do that. That way, the government would be sort of sponsoring your grow!
Anyway, I guess you can grow them with MV but here is a link that is full of information about light and growing weed.

Hope it works out for you. Post some pics so we can share in your grow.
ok so hps is the way to go, where can i get a 400w system and how much will it cost?
what about orange plexiglass screen between light and plant at flowering?
how many watts is a street lamp?
has ne 1 ever tried lst with dp blueberry?
here my blueberrys 4 th week flowering.
I did tie them down while in veg, but i have untied most of em now.
awesome dude. incredible, how tall are they?
what is the best way to increase yeild with this strain?
They are about 2ft 6 inches tall.
I grow the in BioBizz light mix, and stick to there feed list.
All working great so far!!
I read in a grow bible that bluebs respond well to topping, and are notoriously hard to clone.
thanks for the input, does ne 1 have bright alternatives to hps during flower stage? I can't find a 400w hps system in any store! i can't buy online.
