Ok most my knowledge is with autoflowers. To do 10-15 properly you will need 3x5 area. Using square 3 gallon containers. 10 would be fine under 250 hps with some suplemental cfl on the sides. Running two different spectrums(3000k/6500k is fine. In fact i believe in mh/hps for complete grow when it comes to autoflowers and yeild. but that is just my beliefs. Anyway you would need quite a few cfls to get the job done for 10-15 plants. Just look for a hps on ebay or somthing reasonable. cause if this is somthing you are gonna do from time to time. You will be glad you did when you get some experience under your belt and want to step it up.
bobjob4u Reviewed by bobjob4u on . Lighting types for autoflowering?? Planning on doing a CFL grow with a lowryder cross, just wondering what the best (cheap, efficient) lighting would be. I know the CFL growlights are blue or red spec but when the plant flowers and veg's simultaneously what is the best bulb to use? I was thinking of having 1 of each if $$ lets me but anyway it has to be a cfl grow because of temps, any help much appreciated:thumbsup: Rating: 5
