Cool thanks for advice. I think I've got enough to make some edumacated decisions.
Hey I'll post pick of set up and progress that way if stuck should be able to get some more advice
Hey, does anyone have info on what diff is between demineralised water and distilled water?
Is there a diff in ph? Which one is best for autos?
Any help with this appreciated.
Just one little hint,if you can mount those big cfls horizontaly and add some kind of reflectors you will get much more coverage and more light consitrated towards the plants.
Ok I hAve reflector somewhere. I'll try dig it up. Thanks for tip nam man.
If you had choice would you use distilled water over tap wAter?
But really after hearing JM and erock posts I think I'll go nutes and rain water every feed.
I'll try and fit light reflector tomorrow, get more pics up.
I don't know if my cfl globe will fit the reflector cause it had an hps globe in it and was connected to ballast.
Oh well shall see
Again thanks for support
Latest picks of set up.
Only fit one cfl (it is 130w) but got it horizontal. Temps are now easier to control and light has reflector.
Thanks for the prompt namvet.
Will keep posting updates as I'm sure I will need help with this.
Is it best to keep updating on this thread or start new one??
LOVE IT! More over I like how you have a cover for your seedlings! So important to have a nice gentle growing environment for the young girls. I also love the lighting situation you have going on! I do however have the notion that you are going to be required to make adjustments as time goes on. But so far-- YOU ARE BRILLIANT! --
Cheers alley
Yeah space is an issue, but will keep whatever appears to be biggest after hatching.
So far all mine have have been runts getting about 1.5g off each of the last 3 plants grown.
The 2 that are up are already leaps and bounds of the last batch.
Have better handle on temps, grow medium, nutes and ph this time round. Plus namvets light suggestion so hoping for greener pastures this time.
