Hey guys so im growing some bagseed outdoor and its comming along great so far... its around 2 months into veg and is really getting impressive... One thing i am unsure about tho is is its worth getting an hps to make it flower.. (i also heard that you can make it flower with red cfl's) so i dont know if the sun is good enough or should i add this hps. (i'll hang it from a tree). If it is should i get a 1000 watt? im really trying to get fat nuggage! If its a good idea i was thinking i could add red cfl's around the plant for side lighting for fatter nuggets! Im looking at etting the 27 watt 100 watt equilelent cfl's it seems like those are my best bet. thanks for your help!

ok just incase this isn't a joke, don't put any lights outside. first off, the sun will provide all the light you need as long as you put your plants in a decent area, second, whats going to happen to your expensive light when it starts raining?
also i'm pretty sure that a light is going to draw some serious attention to your grow spot. esp if u run it at night... i am curious tho, where would u get the power to run it?
and so you know its not the light that makes your plants flower its the timing of them whenever they get 12 hours of dark and 12 hours of light they will start flowering, the red spectrum just helps.
good luck and please tell me this is a joke, if not GO READ THE GROW FAQ

That guy was totally serious until you guys made fun of him. Let him have his dreams.
Tito, what the fuck? 1000W HPS? If you cared about that plant, and really want to maximize it. You should have at least 3 1000W HPS. However, If you add a couple Metal Halide lamps, it will cut your flowering time in half.

and by the way ativas that shits funny.. ya maybe i need to put them on the roof or else my bottom nugs wont get enough light penetration cause its 2 far from the sun.. lol but maybe my cola will get burnt cause its to close to the sun so ill blow a fan over the canopy to protect it from the sun.. or maybe ill just water it with sunscreen spf 50.
