    Whats with timers? mine seem to quit working all the time, anyone else?

    Thanx bud, it was actually because it had 4 programable outlets, and 4 "all time power" outlets for fans and heater, made my choice for me, and it was cheap...lol

    first cfl grow ever

    Now those looked awesome, I was wondering cuz I'm doing my first grow using CFLs. I have a 5'8"wx2'dx6't closet in the back room and 2'wx2'dx3't nursery, still need more lights, but actually thought about taking 1 of them to 12/12....my oldest is 21 days from sprout (Blue Rhino)...

    Hello

    Looks good man, but for the next one, you need to bring that baby to the top of the bucket, she ain't getin' no light down there, and invest in some CFLs, hoods are great but you can move the single bulbs really close and stop that stretch, I have hoods too, but they're not enuff...it's easier...

    first cfl grow ever

    Can I ask why you start ur sprouts on 12/12, I'm a n00b and all, but I still know about photosynthesis and how plants get not only energy from light, but chemically alter the suns rays to make their own much needed food and nutrients...just askin..

    first cfl grow ever

    Ah man u crack me up already...ur doin' good man, but even tho I'm a n00b, I'd still have to know the size pot ur in before I could say when to replant, if it's like a 20 oz cup or something, then ya put it in a bigger one, but if it's a half gal pot or so, then ur fine..mine are still in coffee...

    What you think?

    Well the reason to seperate is that they will be fighting for the nutrients in the soil, not to mention if 1 is male it could make ur other have seeds even if you clip it and take it out...be sure to water to the sides of the pot, that way the roots will grow away from each other for when you go...

    n00bie CFL grow...3 week update

    ya it's just about the right size when they're little..lol..here's my newly expanded closet..(not done but usable & they seem to like it better)...I'm tryin' to get the bigun to stretch a lil so I don't have to add anymore soil or perlite to bring her to the top of the pot, cuz her leaves are...

    What you think?

    Looking good, but you need to seperate them, and you need to move that foil at least 8-10 inches from ur plants, foil causes "hot spots" and you can't have it that close...(beleive me I use foil too)...and get more lights and put them 1-2 inches away form sides and tops, a nice mixture of 6500k...
