That makes sense. These CFL's run so cool that temperature isn't really a problem at the moment, and I am able to get the bulbs
~1-2" away. They definitely aren't stretching for any light. They actually haven't grown vertically in days. Horizontal growth is steady though. One is looking fairly pale green with yellowing, the other is cute as a button. I rushed into things and used some pre-fert'd potting soil. I think flushing is needed once the last watering dries. I wish I had just waited a week. The Sticky's around here are enough to bring you seed to harvest, basically holding your hand the entire time. Sweeeeeeet! :thumbsup: Oh well... thank the holiest one for bagseed. Haha keep :jointsmile:
TheMetal1 Reviewed by TheMetal1 on . Lights and young seedlings... Is it sufficient to have 3 x 26w 6500k CFL's and 1 x 26w 2700k CFL for (two) week old seedlings? It is a combined 6500 lumens in a 2.5 sq. foot cab. I had read that at that stage it isn't great to blast them with maximum lighting. I have a bunch more to wire up and I want to utilize them as soon as neccessary. As usual, any input is greatly appreciated. :thumbsup: Rating: 5
