New set up Lights and Water Questions
Hello,
I am not sure the amount you are watering, but you may want to cut back. Watering everyday can easily get to be too much. In my experience it is easier to overwater then it is to underwater.
Using just the fluoros your temps should not be bad so water intake would be slower. What temperature does your closet run at?
How far away are the lights. Compact fluoros are nice for their lumen output, but they loose their light penetration quite easily. Try to keep the lights as close as possible. I have compact fluoros that tuch my plants. Every now and then (depending on the strain) I will get a couple burn marks on the leaves touching the light, but generally I never have a problem.
If you notice a significant amount of heat coming out of your lamp hoods, you could drill holes around the top to them to allow the heat to escape out the top.
Congrats on the grow, what strain are you growing out. They do look nice and happy so far.
Take care.
Peace
