Hey just stated vegging two white widow seed a few days ago. Have 2 36watt 6500k cfls and two of the infamous walmart (grow lights). Bought a 65 watt cfl too but can't find a mogul socket for it yet only seen them online I'll buy one soon if i can't find one at the hardware stores. For flower i have a 3 8watt led lights and two 55 watt 2700k cfls. How much can i expect ? Also thinking about using this old light i have from the 70"s its a pink bulb and says 150 watts. No idea what kind of light it is though got it for free at a garage sale and used for decoration lol

depends on so many factors dude, what medium are you growing with? hydro? soil? and will you be using any ferts? what type of enclosure are they in? closet? box? tent? how long do you plan to veg them for? what size pots will they be in? are the seeds feminized? because sadly you could end up with 2 males and then you have no yield. my one suggestion is to get rid of that pink bulb, if you don't know what type of light it is then it could be stressing your plants or giving off too much heat. best of luck. cheers!

Sorry, but it's impossible to predict. I got 1.5oz of good weed and about another 3.5oz of bleah stuff, from apx 300W CFL's.

For flower, I have to say HPS is much better.

Here is the best answer anyone can give you....
between 1g and 1 lb.
There are way too many factors to take into account!
Even if you give two growers the exact same equipment they will not have the same outcome.
Its all based on skill.

Haven't used the pink bulb just thought about using it. I have master nursery gardeners gold soil and using miracle grow packet in the water. Also have fish fertilizer gonna add later. Have 5 gallon buckets and my space is about 4x2x5 had everything in a tent in the closet but temps were awful around 95. so moved to family from next to AC now 79 and 42 hum

O seeds are fem btw and I'm Gona try something i heard about going 24hrs light one week 23, 22 etc till its at 12/12 heard it can flower on its own before 12/12 and is less stressful.for the plant going about 4_5 months though

I like to do it that way too! I think its a better transition than just dropping 12 hrs.

youre vegging for 8 weeks with only about 160 watts? with 2 plants?... i vegged my for a month then flipped right on 12/12.. doesnt matter if you slowly lower the light time, its when 12/12 happens that they think, i gotta start budding... anything above that is just veggin.. i just blasted mine with cfl's 24/0... i understand like 18/6 20/4 if your using a metal halide or something for veg to save electric.. but my change in my electric bill wasnt even noticible..

I'm a first time grower dirt free but you try that light method and it worked well? Thought it sounded like a good idea not many people try you like that way?
