Thank you @SPLFreak808 i think she will respond more to led than cfls.
How is your grow looking
Yeah the led bulbs have shown better growth for me. Atleast compared to cfls of the same wattage, it should be around double the par over cfls.


Im just waiting for some roots to fill in, thinking about a week then im going to flip the timer from 16/8 to 12/12.

Nice she looks very bushy awesome grow I'm loving it
Yeah so far i like what i see... The last cfl run i did literally had half the growth speed with more wattage and even FFOF lol.

This is also the first phenotype I've ever had that makes your fingers stick together in veg after touching the stalk lol im curious to see what the flowers will look like.

This one is mixed with cfls & led bulbs, just some random crap i had lying around.

Not sure if i mentioned it already but I've been growing under a 1000w hid for the past 2 maybe 3 years just for personal use, I've decided im sick of the electricity cost and took down my setup and will probably be replacing it with an led board (hlg550 in mind).

This small grow should hold me off untill i get settled in, fun and will hopefully keep me sharp lol.

Wow we have similar set up I have 4 100 watt equivalent cfls that are 23 actually watts and one 25 watt led and it's really booming better than I thought plus it's not really effecting my electricity too much for so much light.
It's budding everywere.
