im starting my 1st grow in a space thats around 28'' X36'' i have a air cooled 600hps.. do i start veg lighting as soon as i transplant my clones? also i have a clone that i have just chilling on my counter under the window lighting..i wanted to place it into a cabinet and use a basic cfl what bulb/ how many would u recomend for placing it into flowering? it is in a 6inch pot and more for fun to get the hand of growing.
Alrighty, First I would check you local nursery for foxfarms organic soil or something similar by foxfarm. If thats not an option go for scotts brand potting soil with no addatives from home depot, cheap as hell to. Then add about 20% perlite-not miracle grow brand anything, it all has bad nutes. As for nutes thats tough, I have never found anything worth using for cannabis at home depot. I have always ordered nutes online from a hydro store.I have a question. I am new, this is my first grow and I have 4 plants, 3 different strains. They are under a CFL atm until they are strong enough to go under my 400w HPS. My question, I have them in a mixture of pearlite and vermiculite and no soil. Well, using home depot, lowes, and my local nursey, what kind of soil and nutes should I buy? I am flat broke atm after dropping $350 for an air cooled light and I am gonna get some cash in the next few weeks for the bigger buckets, soil, etc, which won't be so bad.
So whats a good soil combination to get and nutes that I can easily buy local?
Sorry for not being more specific, I assumed common sense would show that this is for indoor marijuana growing questions but for those with none this spells it out.
i got a question, is it bad to switch light types mid grow? I have a baby going right now and had a couple problems with my MH bulb, so ive been going between MH and cfl and hps. now its on my hps and im planning on switching back to MH once i get a new bulb. Keep in mind its only like 1-2 weeks old
Please excuse me for jumping in but I have search a lot of treads and im trying to find out how many plants can a 600 hps grow?![]()
Quick question...... would a 150 watt hps and about 6 - 27watt cfls (100 watt equiv) be enough lighting to grow about 2-3 plants? I plan on getting another 150 watt in a few weeks
im a newb at hydro..some of my leaf tips are yellow, just the tips.everything else looks great. any suggestions?
G'Day. I have a 600watt HPS Super Output Light. Can I just start growing in soil under the light. I know about the light spectrum, cool blue for veg and amber red for flowering. The light is high in the amber red spectrum, but I'm wondering if anyone has just grown under a HPS and not using a Metal Halide light? Thanks
