Cheers Sofa and Briain.
Good luck with ya Mazars Briain. They will do you well. Will drop by ya thread and give it a sub.

Does any one know if i will be able to grow 2-3 plants under my 200watt dual spec CFL?

Just orderd 2 seeds from RQS -Royal Haze Automatic and White Widow Automatic. Will 3 plants be too much in a 60x60x140cm tent and will my 1 200watt cfl do the job?

Looks like you're hitting the end of the vegetative growth para, the budding should start to go in full flurry here soon.. if you go a week or so without seeing much more vegetative growth, then switch over to bloom nutes. Typically between week 5 and 7 are the time you'd want to switch.

You're going to need more lights to run three plants, especially because CFLs really have a hard time spreading the love you know.. They do good with the plant right beneath/beside them but after that the lumens depreciate at a high rate.

Are the new beans feminized? Love the ambition brother, things are coming along nice. Real nice. Could've fooled me this was you first grow!

Sup WG
Thanks brother. how are ya?
Do I make a make a complete switch to bloom nutes or do I mix with the bio-grow(veg nute)?
The seeds should be fem as they are from RoyalQueenSeeds and they claim that all their seeds are feminized.

I won't pop any beans until i have sorted the lighting situation. I don't really want to go the hps route due to heat and the need of getting another in line fan. What would be the best cfls to use and how many? I don't want to spend to much money on adding more cfls as i plan on maybe getting a LED panel once the mazar is done.

THESE are pretty cool. 5 year warranty on the fixture and 6 month on the bulb.

You can always make your own cfl setup and get some from Walmart or HomeDepot, but I think they run hotter than the ones made for it. GE doesn't make those standard cfl to grow plants with, but others do. My

And unless you're noticing an N deficiency going into flower, you can switch completely over to the bloom nutes. Some strains use a little extra N at that stage. Easy to spot though, with the pale green leaves.

My friend has a 150w hps with ballast that he is gonna lend me and am gonna see how i get along with temps etc.

Day 36. My tent arrived so i thought i'd share some pics of her in her new home.

Could this purple on the fan leaf be an indication that i might end with purple hues or is this a normal thinf to see?

 

[The Squid]

Looking good dude! About the purple...maybe! But not always. I see purplish hues all the time on different strains.

My awesome mate dropped me some Lighting round today.
150watt hps with ballast and 2x 250watt CFLs one for veg and one for flowering.

The hps did not come with a reflector.
What should i use? and should i switch my current 200watt dual spectrum out for the 250watt flowring cfl for the mean time?
Thanks in advance for any replies.

I just acquired 3 of these beans today and will be dropping in water immediately. Awesome to have a grow to watch!!

 

[paronic]

Nice one Doobious!
They will certainly treat you well. What sort of setup you got/going for?
