If you have already read these forums, Like myself and tons of other people. you should already know what to do. Like they say
Just Do it!

reading grow logs is a great way, especially if they carry them to the final drying & curing stage. There are lots of very very good grow logs on this forum.


you have your answer right here ---->>>>>23w cfl ..... freind said would need this for germanation ?????

and how many seeds?

start...
1 23w cfl, in soil, with no nutrients or additives. use a seed starting mix

once they hit about 3inches, add another 1 23w cfl,
once they hit about 8-14inches, put the 250 wat cfl on them, add a high nitrogen base additive amongst other things like your bat goo

and what is your 400w dual light? 400w of any light is going to get pretty toasty in a 3x3 space especially a tent, how tall is the tent?
