My fluoresent closet

83 degrees is fine, just dont go above 90 degrees. Mg soil is fine especially since this is your first grow. it basically does the work for you... just follow my advice with the watering and you'll be fine. my first indoor grow was almost exactly like yours, cfls and floros with mg soil. I got damn near a qp off of one plant so i know you will do fine from experiance..
 
heres a pic from my first indoor grow using cfls, floros, and mg soil.....

awesome man, glad to hear your temp dropped, that should bring your humidity up a bit also..... figured the pic would give you some inspiration...lol....remember the more wattage the better.....I think i had almost 600 watts of floro and cfl power.....:peace:bongsmilie

thats alot of fucking light lol im running around 250 watts about. im gonna have to get me more cfls cause im wanting to cloan too off these so i can have some quicker harvests.
 
so i decided to do the low stress training method to one of my babies ill take some pics n post tommorow.
 
so my rooms temp has drimaticly dropped down to a steady 72-73...im going to close the hole i have off a bit to increase the temp slightly..


EDIT: its closer to 74-76 now so ill be set if it stays like this.
 
so i had a light fall on my babies today :( i had to take the stings off the plant i was LSTing because it got smashed along with the one next to it. this really sadens me but i hope they will recover.
 
You shouldn't even put plants under lights until you are sure that they are properly secured. Just my 2 cents. I hope the injured recover, I'm sure they will
 
no it was secure but the fan blowing on the tape holding it made it fall but either way they dont seem to be doing to bad besides one fan leaf seems pretty bent.
 
they have no problems from the light failier but im getting some reddish colored stems on some of the fan leafs.. any suggestions on what could be wrong?

everyones gota start somewhere ;) how is your temps?? best of luck to ya .

ive got full control of my temps now so i sit around 76-77. im getting really pissed now cuz im not going to start budding till i get either more cfl ($) or a ballast for my hps bulbs ($) and i have no $.
 
ok i got a question because im haveing a hard time figureing out how much sq/ft im working in to see my lumens output..
so the closet itself is about 2x6 but im not using the whole thing. as you can see from the pictures and discription its 2x4' fluo tube holders so im really only in an area of about 1x4. what numbers should i use to figure out how much sq/ft pur lumen im using?:confused:

Lumens are light rating, have nothing to do with your square footage. I would say get the CFL's or Fluros with the highest lumens and do what you can with them.

Since you are on a budget with this particular grow, just do the best with what you got. Right now I'm growing 2 seedlings into Veg with 1 single 24" fluro natural sunlight. So far no problems! I for one didn't want to spend tons of money on a 4ft light and also didn't want to take up lots of space with it either.

Best of luck buddy!:leaf:

i guess i really ment to say lumens pur sq/ft...(was stoned when i wrote that i knew it didnt sound right :P) anyway i decided to go 12/12 weather fluos will give me quality buds or not(im hoping something)
based on recent pics, would i be good adding about 4 23 watt cfls to help get bigger buds?
