Ok Ok so i got 1-Strawberry Haze seed from a good friend. Told you guys before that I would try some g13 labs dwarfs.

Germination: 48 hours in an insulated mug with a lid. Planted in Organic MG soil no nutes..

Lights : 6-26 watt daylight CFL

2- T12 Fixtures 2-40 watt bulbs each

Temps: 78-82 degrees fan running 24-7.


Not that is matters but heres the space,

Lets see what the hell is gonna happen this time... You never know!
2x2x6 closet . Using ultra white Reflection panels and a home made bathroom light fixture... :fire: Its on like donkey kong!! Comments, concerns, inspiration. Dont piss in my cheerios if your a fucken hater! TY:cuss:

same shit going on different day 5 post germ, waiting for sprouts...

Changed up alittle from organic soil to MG moisture control... Ive talk to too many people on riu that sware by it with proof in pictures... So i dumped the pods in a clean controled envirement and replanted the seeds into MG Moisture control.. Great thing is i found huge long thick tap roots shooting out all seeds which means there growing! Two more days and i should see something pictures then will follow..
 
Have a similar setup but wondering how you calculated 22k lumens? I have seasonal affect disorder and was told I needed at least 10k lumens so I have 10 x 23 watt light box and that gets me just over 13k (each rated at 1400 lumens). Does reflective surface increase lumens? Not hating - just know nothing about lighting and want to learn.

You're not crazy gastanker, I was going to ask the same question. By my calculations, even with 4 42w bulbs there would only be about 13,000 lumens ... Again. not hating, just curious :).

I hope you don't mind me jumping in, but reflective materials don't increase lumenage, they simply make more of your lumens available to the plants by offering a reverbiration of light.

Sounds like you're off to a start homegrwn, I'm interested in the Strawberry varieties for my breeding so I'll be keeping an eye on this. Let me know if you need anything, keep the updates coming :blsmoke:

Dont forget the calculations are for coverage and not lumens you cant add lumens unless its a stronger bulb.. no worries im stoned ya know!
I was just figuring that I have more than enough light for the space being used and this is my second CFL grow..sig is first...

Sorry for the shitty math the first was in my head the second on ms calculator LOL!bongsmilie

And no it doesnt raise the lumens but it reduces the amount of light being lost by reflecting it back toward the plant... I have my flouro vertical so that i can disperse the light from the bottom to the middle and use the cfl for top coverage at the cola or main branch offs.... You can see the flouro in my pics ill make another one
 
I tend to shoot for 60w/sq ft in my space at minimum, I've only grown using CFLs to this point. Generally I use 2 - 42w 3000k and 4 - 26w 2700k bulbs. Tends to put off ample lighting and my buds come out firm everytime, no fluff. Keep up the good work, you'll be just fine :blsmoke:

Yeah being my second journal on this site and a few on others I think If I upgrade it will be a suppliment of 150 or 250 hps... I just had a thing for my old one the product comparison is near the same but I finished flowering earlier with HPS...Maybe it was the strain not sure but ehhh check back and see the growth shooting for three females out of 4:eyesmoke:
 
How often do you guys water right after you place the germed seeds in there home... say like the next five days is it twice a day or once a day or every other? Would you guys recomend the jiffy green houses for starting there fucken 2 bucks at lowes for a pod of 8 qubes pluse the plastic house.. I may pick two up for a continued project
 
Sounds excellent brother, I'm ordering a 400w HPS for the poll in my signature and associated grow journal/video. I'll be tuned in :blsmoke:

nice grow homegrwn... hope this one turns out good for you. good luck man, ill be watchin. and btw lumens dont add up. for example you put 2 26w cfls side by side thats still only 1600 lumens. you need a brighter/ higher watt light to get more lumens. adding more lights with the same lumen output increases your lux. in other words more lights of the same lumens= more light coverage.

Ok.. 4 days and the haze has sprouted only one of the g13 so far but i dropped in two more germed just in case well see how they fly...
