The bigest one i have is a 68watt cfl(300 equivalent) and they are on a normal base( no mogul base). I found em at walmart for 13 bucks in the contractor section. The biggest cfl i can find other than on the net. All the ones under the hood, not on the cords are all 27watt bulbs. i also have one 35watt and one 45 watt bulb...thanks for the reply bro

Yeah that sounds about right. Individual cfl's dont produce much heat but lots will add up. I just ordered one 105 watt cfl for flowering and then I'll use a couple more cfls in addition

Nice to see a cfl grow done right! +Rep for a job well done.

Where you running the 1k watts throughout the whole grow or did you just keep adding light as you went?

Some good advice on when flowering that I've found from some grow books:

Most growers are anxious on getting their hands on their juicy bud, but look at the trichomes. When you think their ready, give them about another week to fully amber up.

Also, let them sit in dark four about 24-48 hours before putting light back on them. The darkness represents the changing seasons in nature. As the light during the day reduces more and more, the plant pushes out more THC covered trichomes to help with collecting pollen, also protecting the "seeds" inside from foreign invasions.

I had a friend put his plant in darkness for an entire week and stopped watering it for the week too, and his plants were COVERED in little crystals. Just a lil smoke for thought :joint:

Great grow man!! can't wait to see how much you get!

Heres the pictures. 318 grams wet before the trimming. I only cut the major tops off the plant and left the lower half to catch up. lemme know what u guys think

Remember i did this with cfls. They are pretty damn good.
