Just a quick note regarding CFL use.

I re-vegged the one plant I have (after harvest) and still used the bucket/CFL setup I used for the entire grow. I am getting great new activity from the tiny little budsites that were left on the plant (too small for harvesting)

I have taken some clones and put them into a humidity dome setup with a weak light above them 24/7. On day 3 of rooting and they look OK for now. My teacher says to leave them alone for 5 days at least. This is all new to me except for the research I have done here on these boards.

I am using rockwool and a drain-to-waste type of setup. CFL for clones, MH for veg, HPS for flowering. Still a micro grow and due to vertical space limitations I will go with either SOG or SCROG (I was not very good at training in my last SCROG) leaning towards SOG very quick grow as I now have access to plenty of clones for my use.

BTW .. I consider myself very fortunate that I have stumbled into having the Bubba-Kush genetics. I got them by accident from a single hermie seed from my "big-grower" friend. Came in an eighth oz bud from his "secondary grow site". I am doing everything I can to hold on to these genetics as I have no other source for them and am reluctant to buy via the internet.

I will start a new grow thread soon for this grow to help others as I was helped. Please do not look to me as a great source of knowledge but instead as an example of how a total nube can actually succeed at this.

Max Blast Reviewed by Max Blast on . CFL 42W/150W flouro OK to veg? I have a spiral compact flourecent light the says on the package that it is 150 watts of light using 42 watts of power. It says "warm white light" on the package description. Is this light OK for vegging period? I have a seedling in soil (already had it going in soil before my hydro setup arrived) and want to use this light for vegging (24/7) and then switch to HPS for flowering.(12/12) Any comments on this type of light? (spectrum, etc) thanks for the help, Max Blast Rating: 5
