New Grower my very first medical grow with 250watt dual spectrum CFL, growbox, 9 plants

Hey dfx, good luck man, I am a few weeks ahead of you but I feel I might have made a mistake by not posting before I started, but I only just posted my grow a few days ago as I feel I need help.
I'm also using a CFL although im using 250 blue then 250 red so I'll be subscribing and looking out for all the hints and tips you recieve so I can do my 2nd crop good from the start, if you have a wee look at my grow maybe you can tell me how similar our setups are gonna be??

Oh and I started five and ended up buying a 2nd kit which is a dual bulb and had to send 3 away to a friends with the 2nd kit,
Heartbreaking......but hopefully I will see some green off my friend!! ;-)
Good luck man!!
 
It sounds like a fun grow! I'm subscribed....should be very interesting! Wishing you good luck with this one,,,,lots of help here on AFN if you need it.

yes, that is so right - and i really appreciate that! ;) thank you for accusing my bad english. ;) but after all, you seem to understand me... you're all so kind! *prost* :D
 
i would like to check this out, i was growing mega bud but had to chop it right as flowering started. might try it again as it was looking good

hey weemike,

which are your experiances with the dual cfl? i start with an 200watt lamp (with boosts at 2700k and 6500k red - blue spectrum). should this be enough for 3 plants in a 75x75x180cm place?

surely, i grow 6 plants in 11liter pots, but i will only grow, keep 3 - might be even 4 of the very best of them.

what do you use as air-condition? against smell? do you only use a ventilator or even a "

"charcoal absorber
Aktivkohlefilter {m} [fachspr. meist {n}]
activated carbon filter
activated charcoal filter"

do you understand me? this

is a copy from my dictionary. i cannot describe it better, please be patient... ;)

greetings from germany,

dfx12 ;)

i have one further question:

would it be a problem for my plants if i would leave my growbox per "zip" open? will the heat and humidity even though better then?! what do you think?

This space size 75cmx75cm is good for 3,
Plant each seed in 25cmx25cm pots these are 11 litre I think from amazon.

I use vents 200m3 basic carbon filter and fan system £59.99 from amazon UK. Only on half speed as I have fan controller £4.99 from amazon UK :-D
I will turn up speed when smell starts.
I also use usb pc fan coolers in bottom for intake. You can see in my profile album. This keeps my space at 29 degrees c
You can open zips for small time but at the end of grow ( weeks 8-12) better closed!!
Dual bulb seems ok just now I will report later when I harvest!! :-D
I hope this helps :-D
 
yes, it really helps!!! ;) we hopefully will see...
thanx,

kind regards, dfx12
