They walk, crawl, and hitch rides on things. The grower is the biggest cause other than that they come in on new plants and through vents. They are tiny and voracious.

I have a Halogen bulb in my closet, I dont know any of the specs on it but its REALLY BRIGHT, I got it when someone gave me a desk lamp. Its a Bulb shape.
Should I switch 1 CFL for this bulb?
My bulb says 100watt Reveal Halogen
Looks like this:
http://www.amazon.com/82139-100-Watt-Reveal-Halogen-Light/dp/B000LPVIAA
But the Color Temp is 2800 so its a Flowering light?

seems like you have a pretty decent setup the only thing i would suggest is not leaving the fan on 24/7 nor putting it directly on your plants as it tends to make the buds very "airy" and light i would just leave your fan on while your lights are on to be honest and as for using a 20/4 light sched. there has been alot of studies showing that anything after 18hours really doesn't affect your plant and your just wasting electricity 16/8 or 18/6 sched is the most cost efficient , but if you already have it on 20/4 i wouldn't change it now as its probably to late and could possibly induce flowering but i doubt it good luck and nice setup
Not only is he wrong about what everyone else already stated ......Hes also wrong about not being able to switch from 20/4 to 18/6 I start my plants from clone in 24/o and them go to 18/6 and i never have problems and its not going to make your plants flower like he suggested........

Get rid of the halogen light! it's only good for heating. No use for growing. Your better off with CFLs. Halogen is not the same as MH or HPS.

Is this caused by Nutrient Burn or Bugs?
Bugs cause spots
Nutrient Burn causes yellow
its on about 10 big leafs, and 1 big leaf on the other plant.
I also think it could be the insecticide, maybe from leaving it on? I sprayed both plants with clean water today to remove anything on the leafs.

I have an 400watt HPS to put into it and ill swap the CFLS with soft white. Ill have to remove the 100watt MH and the Florescence lights.
As for Nutes I was told to put 5ml or Soil A and B then gradually up it then when putting in flower add like 10ml - 15ml of A and B, they gave me a chart.
After using the Neem Oil I found 4 dead fly looking bugs on the rim of the blue pot this morning.

Hey Bro, I suggest you move the balast off the floor. Your plants will love the new light! You want to pH after you add all the nutes and then adjust if needed then check pH again. Checking PPM is a good idea too. Then you'll know better what is going on. The B1 is good for seedlings and transplanting. I like to see my Ph somewhere around 6.3. not much lower unless i'm doing hydro. Don't have the fan blowing on the plants unless it's ossilating. That's it for now. Good luck.

I received 2 more plants yesterday 28" and 29" tall.
They had white mold so I sprayed my fi=fungicide and its gone now.
I noticed "white flys" so I sprayed Neem Oil and some dish soap on the plants and noticed maggots crawling out of the soil and dieing.
Im going to transplant the plants today into new soil, when I transplant I want to have a mix of my fungicide and Neem Oil ready to spray the roots for bugs / fungi.
Sound good?
I want to get rid of the bugs / fungi before I move the plants into my grow room, there in the garage under 16 CFLs right now
Thanks

I seem to be having some trouble reading up on pH. From what I understand I should mix Soil A, Soil B, and B-1, then test teh pH level and want a 6.3? I have pH up and pH down as well I can use.
