Hi all!
I'm another newbie that has been inspired by the various grows on this forum, YouTube and articles/forums all over the internet. I have done a lot of research over the last few months and am keen to get started, however there is some info that I'm lacking on.
I'm starting to design and build my grow areas. My seedling/clone area is approx 3x2x2ft. I am looking only to accommodate for around 10 clones/seedlings at any one time, so this space should be more than sufficient. Growing from feminised seeds, I will then pick and choose the two best/healthiest/fastest growing seedlings for my veg area. Area will be lined with diamond Mylar.
What kind of lighting would you recommend that I use purely for the early growing stage for my propagation area? After this, they will go in the veg room which will be a 3x2x5ft area with a 400w MH lamp (or similar blue spec HPS), so I need the best advice really for the early plant stages that will lead to this point.
Money is not really an issue, neither is the amount of electric consumed - but obviously I don't want to run a 400w lamp when I can use a 125w CFL when the results are exactly the same. Quality is what I'm aiming for here ideally, I don't want to cut corners.
Thanks!
