Hey guys, so I'm about ready to start my grow and here's my question. Ill have a small grow, using rubbermaid containers stacked on top of one another and I was planning on just using a 75/25 ratio of 6500/2700 for veg and sprouting then flipping that for flower.
I've been thinking though the past few hours. Since I wouldnt be flowering for nearly 7-8 weeks and using the LST method, I was wondering if I saved up some money and bought myself a 30$ 70w HPS security light at home depot and just converted it to a grow light and used it in combination with like 300w 2700K CFL's for flowering to help increase my end yield.
I'm tight on cash right now so maybe in 4 weeks I'll be able to get one and use CFLs for now, but what do you guys think?
If my exhausting is right, and it only being a 70w, would it be cool to use in a rubbermaid setup?
Is it a generally good idea and train of thought?
Once again I appreciate any and all feedback!!!
RIU rocks!!
