1) more energy efficient 2) algae don't matter but it's a sign you're overfeeding too much nitrogen 3) they get more as they get bigger, I've heard of 13 4) skim milk 5) depends, but about 10 days or so.ok a got a few neb ques..... ok my plant stretched a lil at first but I caught it intime and now its lookn a lot bettr.... few questions now.... 1) what is the difference between these T"#" lights and regular fluoros like my 300 watt CFLs ???..2)i got sum algae growin on one side of the plant stem bout a centimeter undr the soil... it was about a 2in block I pulled out... and I gotta water today so I duno whut to do...???3) oh ya sum of my lower growth has a few branches with 3 or 4 leaves on em... and on the top sum branches got 7 leaves...4)oh ya how do I make my leaves shiny??? they r just bright green with purple outline...and I want em shiny...hahaha5)how long after u start the 12/12 cycle do u see changes and bud form??

1) Im not sure what the numbers actually mean, but Im sure Google knows.
2) Algae grows where it is moist and where there is light, if you cover the top of the soil with something that light can't get through that would kill any algae.
3) Sounds like its growing
4) Spit on them and rub with a cotton t-shirt ( This works with boots too)
5) 2-3 weeks some will show sooner some later, but in general 2-3 weeks, by 1 month its usually really starting to show
FWIW Purple outlined leaves do not sound good, what is your current setup?
