Just curious to whether or not these will work for VEG and if so flowering... I bought like 3 4-packs of these. Also, if my soil has absolutely NO nutrients in it to start with, and my babies are around 11 days old and 2 of them are starting to get some yellowing on the leaves, would it be okay to give them 1/4 strength veg nutes?
Heres the lights
Great Value CFL Light Bulb: 23 Watt (100W Equiv), 4-Pk - Wal-Mart
PLZ someone awnser this!
TY
Thos are soft white bulbs. You want to get the 26 watt CFL's that are "Daylight", or 6500k for vegging. The 6500k lights have a blue spectrum and are perfect for vegging. When it comes time to flower change your bulbs to 2700k 42 watt CFL's. These bulbs have a red spectrum and are perfect for flowering.
As far as your 11 day old babies go. What you are experiencing is a slight Nitrogen deficiency. Add 1/8 to 1/4 strenght nutEs to your plant.
WHATEVER YOU DO....DO NOT feed more than 1/4 strenght at this point or you'll burn up your babies.
REMEMBER.... You can never have too much lighting. The more CFL'S the better your yield. Also, keep a fan on your plants and keep your plants within 1-2 inches of your CFL bulbs. It is KEY that you keep the lights as close as possible to the plant.
I hope this has helped.
