But if you had a LED panel for a veg stage and another for a flower stage , which adds more red ect it would be beneficial wouldn't it?

Got an Auto that is 6 days old (from removing the seed off the cotyledons) it is roughly 1 1/2 inch tall and only has the first set of actual leaves developed , with maybe the next set just starting to show. It seems pretty slow and i'm not sure but maybe it's a little too cold? Temps are in...

Anybody tried the Philips LED's? They are 14w at 6500k and put out 1400lm per bulb , and just screw into the e27 fixtures, comparing this to the equivilent CFL which is 24w and 1450lm. The temp is alot lower with the LED . How far off the young plants should you have the LED? Still a good...

I really like T5's , excellent for pictures too. So this is just 6500k globes at 12/12 right? I see some people mix up the spectrums but if you don't need too even better.

Lots of Marijuannas around these parts. I been smoking the leaf of what I thought was giant marijuanna plants for years , then it went into seed and I realised it was a PawPaw tree.

You can buy big 130w actual cfl's , why dont people use a couple of these instead of lots of little ones? Are they still not that bright enough away from the plants?

Cool , well i have my plant trained so that's all good. I see in your link your panels are pretty high up in veg. How high do you have them? In flower right now they are about 15 inch away. My tent is a 2ftx2ftx6ft one.

do they make a 2ft T5 with 55w globes? I cant find any like this. Everything is 28w at best , would it make a massive difference come flowering time or not really? I have Hans panels for side lighting.

Hey ,i have a couple of Hans Panels and jnust wondered if i could also use some cfl for the lower half of the plant as a substitute light? The Hans Panels seem ok but when the plants get a bit bushy you start running into problems. Would cfl's effect the LED effective light footprint overhead?

Is there any disadvantage in growing under full spectrum as opposed to a veg light and a flowering light? I assume thre must be otherwise it just seems like you are making it harder for yourself , dealing with swapping lights. Are yields lower?

Good info , thanks. I'll look up prices for that setup.

only small , 60cmx60cmx140cm , i could go a little bigger but prefer not. I think a 250w HID would be enough in a cool tube.

One of my best grows was from a cardboard box use it as a template for bigger things.

Anybody recommend me a light that will yeild well for one plant and also be cost effective with low heat? suitable for a small commercially brought grow tent.

Hey , I was attemting my first DWC and it all went well until the flowering stage where basically nothing has happened for a month. No new growth but still looking healthy on top , and white roots on the bottom. Ive been thinking why it's not flowering when the setup is the best ive ever done...

Here is an idea. Maybe the main cause of the lack of flowering is the root size in the res? While they look nice and clean they are only sitting in about 3 or 4L of water by the time the roots fill in the space which is like a gallon or just over. I was growing the whole time in a low profile...

I can't really do alot about temps as its basically summer here and i dont have any air con , it could be a long flowering strain. Its sativa but what it is I have no idea , its bush bud like everything else here. Maybe i'll do like suggested and turn off the lights for a day then go onto 8/16...

I use a digital timer.

Humidity or lack of oxygen is what im think has caused the problem. Today is the hottest day of the year and record temps for november ....climate change much. 110f / 40degree C , internally the cabinet is 31c which I think is alright - not ideal. I had the intake fan on the bottom on the...

So i tried my first attempt at DWC . All in all I found it Lot easier then soil grow , no deficiency at all , the plant looks really nice and healthy. Tree truck stem on it as thick as my middle finger , roots nice and white with weekly res changes and daily ph checks and adjusting. I topped it...
