Live Stoner Chat Hello from Portugal :)

[Chupaxuxas]

Hello fellow growers, as I said I'm from Portugal and I'm gonna start my second grow.
I had one last year that was a really basic one, four auto skunk plants that were pretty small and I wasn't growing them indoors so I didn't give that much attention to them.
So now I'm gonna start a closet grow and I'm gonna need a few tips from the experienced growers that I'm pretty sure I'm gonna find here.

:styles rasta: Welcome to the AFNlogo family. There are a ton of stickys at the top of each forum that are full of info about that specific forum. I had to chime in on your intro. Your from the place where my ancesters originate. Neat.

Thank you, the thing that I need more help is with the lighting, the rest is kind of under control eheh.
That's cool

What light info are you seeking?

Well I'm doing this on a budget because I don't have that much money coming in and this is just gonna be for personal use.
I have been looking at CFL and HPS lights, I haven't read anything about LED's but is it even worth it? My closet is 55cm Length, 55cm Width and 140cm Height.
The lamp that I'm gonna buy is this one.

Is it a good one? It's in spanish but you can probably tell if it good or not from the specifications.
Like I said, this is gonna be on a tight budget so I don't want high-end stuff, unfortunately.

That could work in a small space like you have, I've seen grows here with lights smaller than that! If it fits your budget it may be a good way to get you started. You can always upgrade in the future.

Yeah, this is just for now, I plan on upgrading in the future.
But one thing that I still don't understand is that that light can be changed from 2700 to 6400 ºK. So this means that all the plants have to be at the same phase right? I can't have 1 auto and 1 normal at the same time can I?

The light doesn't change, it just gives off both spectrums. Its designed to work well for both veg and flower. You don't want an auto and a regular in thew same grow if your only have one space and one light. It could be done, but the auto would be happier and produce better if it can stay on at least 18 hours of light a day. A regular needs to have the light period shifted to 12 on / 12 off to trigger flowering and needs to stay on that schedule.
