Just thought id add this onto this thread easier than making another one for a simple question lol I spotted 60w floodlights at the store the other day, the box doesn't specify lumens or even light type I'm pretty sure its either LED or halogen though, plus its directed downwards in a one eighty degree arc I'm pretty sure it said, given that its a floodlight would it have good penetration for growing? And also how would I check if its the right spectrum for flowering/vegging or if itll do both? (obviously being 60w id need more than 1 lol but they did have 100w ones as well)

Halogen would be worthless but the 60-100 watt equivalent LED bulbs will do the trick. They run generally in the 90- 110 lumens per watt range before the globe is removed. Removing the globe's increases the lux measurements significantly. I personally mix the spectrum with half 2700k and half 5000k. Even when using HID lights I got the best performance using a mix of MH and HPS for flowering.

she looks yummy :) very dark leaves though is that just the strain or ya got a bit to much nitrogen? Definitely looks like youll get some nice smoke off it, how many watts all up is that pulling?

Only happens under my LED if it was excessive nitrogen the leaf tips would be burnt and buds wouldn’t form as nicely also in this grow I’m just watering and using Terpinator under cfls they were lime green once I switched turned dark green never had an issue so no big deal to me and I also took this pic in the dark with my phone flash camera hhaha

hey guys just a quick question its been about three weeks since those photos were taken, shes shot out a fair few white pistils and a few lower little buds are just starting to swell up and theres little tear shaped nodes swelling up here and there but most of the pistils are still white, its gotta be almost two months into flower is that normal?

Without a pic it would almost sound like pollen sacs.
