Plant Rescue! CFL lighting
ok i hit up the garden center i had 15 bucks. i bout a bag of ferti-lome potting mix, the guy said its what they use in their potted plants in their green house. out of all the bags of plant food they had i opted for epsoma tomato-tone. i read a 20-20-20 mix is best and this is 4-7-10, i couldnt find any others that were as evenly distributed i hope i made a good choice. i already had some ferti-lome root stimulator, 4-10-3, i used a little drop mixed with water in the cap in the holes i transplanted into. i mixed the potting mix with the tomato tone, it said one part food to 30 parts soil i hope i estimated right when i mixed it up. i only bought one new pot, they were cheab but i only had 15 bucks. i have 3 (2 3 inchers and a pretty seedling) in the big pot, 2 in the medium (tall seedlings) , and 1 in a 3x3 tupperware bowl and 2 in another tupp. same size (seedlings of course).
i tested my cfls, held my hand right under them for a minute to see how the heat was, i could actually hold my hand on the top of the buld without being burnt, these things arent very hot at all, i lowered them back to between 1 and 2 in.s off the tops.
i ran out of room on the floor, i'm gonna have to rearrange some stuff, the tupperware bowls are on the lamp right below the bulb, i have to get that lamp out of there and get another hanging one that thing takes up mass space and really isnt reflective. ill post some pics in a bit gotta take em.

CFL lighting pls keep in mind i am a first timer and am open to ANY suggestions:rasta: ok, at a buddy of mines house on his back deck we started throwing seeds into these decent size clay pots that were about half way full with potting soil. we really had no intention of starting a garden but when we sprouted about twenty plants in the three pots we couldnt resist. my friends brother transplanted almost all of them into containers and brought them inside, they were leaving for talladega to see the Rating: 5Confucious say: Man who stand on toilet high on pot...
