Might have to swap back out to CFL’s temps are getting high, and I have to keep lots of attention to the girls. However they are doing great! Have watered again. Plants are also running out of room in their 1 gal pots. Will think if switching to 2 gal pots in a week or so.. any sujjestions?
Looks good. CFL’s can usually be inches away. If you take them too far away the light won’t be as powerful. Should be between 4” and 10”. If you can hold your hand (backside towards the light) for 30 seconds and not nurt your hand, your good to go.

Ok I have switched out my CFL’s for my 315 CHM. It really heats up my small tent. My exhaust has been routed in the back of the room. This has not been working, so tomorrow I’m going to push the exhaust to the attic, and try to get the heat out of the room.
Though the girls are still doing...
I have a 4” exhaust fan but it’s pretty wimpy. I don’t have the resources for another exhaust fan. I should when they are about to flower. I’ve turned on 3 more “warm” CFL’s and the heats already gone up.
Sounds good. I was just thinking of swapping to my 315CHM with a 4K-R spectrum. My main concern is temp. I sit around 79F with the tent closed up while using current 2 CFL’s. I’ve had it get to 90F with the tent closed with my CHM. I moved the tent to a cooler room, so I’m testing it out first...
Watered with plain PH’d water half a gal each. Made new nutes. Used 15ml of GROW and 5ml Bloom. 2.5 ml of micro, 5ml of cal-mag.
Will be watering with nutes for the rest of the week. Day 15 from seed.
8 days update. Plants doing well
Just fed both plants with about 1/3 gal of nutes. Had just a little runoff. Excited that they are doing well. Really like the color of this plant.

I’m using CFL’s for two plants. I’m at day 6 from sown seed. I’m using a 2*2*4 foot tent. I will have 4 CFL’s during flowering unless I get a larger tent that I can use my CHM due to my own cooling problems. Right now it’s great! If you have the resources for a good LED, then might be a good...
