Just Got My Fem White Widow Seeds

Everything I have I have acquired from craigslist one of the guys blew a bunch of smoke up my ass about the equip because I dont know very much about it yet but I still got it dirt cheap so I figured what the heck

just run the 2 t'5s untill they are about 6 inches or so .. then you can start adding more lights.. .. or even the 3 cfls at first.. but your gonna need all those lights once they get bigger

the amount of plants doesnt really matter.. what matters is the amount of area .. what you want is about 50watts per a sq ft.. so lets say you have a 2ftx2ft area .. thats 4 sq ft .. you want atleast 200 watts for that .. these are really estimated numbers... but will get you close.... you can run whatever amount of plants you would like to .. or can fit in that area.. you can grow 1 big plant.. or 4 little ones.. 2 medium sized ones.. you get the idea.. either way your yield will be about the same regardless.. its all about the amount of light in the amount of space you have....

With White Widow.. which is a little on the sativa side.. your plants will probably double to triple in size from the time you switch em to 12/12...Im telling you that so you can veg em to the right size before you flower them .. lets say you have enough growing area for 2 ft plants.. then you know you want to start flower at around 8-12 inches so they will finish at around 2 ft and not get too big for your area.. hopefully you get what im saying .. I smoked a little too much before replying to this :)
 
lol I know the feeling all to well. Will it hurt to run the t5s with the hpsIn flowering a far as the grow area havent really picked a spot out yet I have plenty of room but I wanted to keep out doors and when the sun goes down pull them under the lights would this work

sounds like alot of trouble and stress , K.I.S.S. thats how i do . Proper planning prevents piss poor production , so get it all set up now while theyre young . I just started my next crop with fruity chronic juice,kosher kush,bubba 76,og kush . I start mine under 3 cfls made for growing does them great till 3-4 " then i move em under my 600 that has a fancy ballast to change watts so i put it down to 360 and turn it up as they get bigger just keep em cool i never have a problem .
 
Hell yeah it's been a cluster fuc but I'll get it there they havent even broke seed yet do I'm still in the good but when they pop use three cfls then move up as needed is what alotaball and your self recommended so thats what I shall start with thanks guys but will the indoor outdoor growing keep me from having the elaborate set up our do I need to still go all out
 
My seeds broke ground today and so happened to find a aerogarden space saver 6 at the local goodwill it was missing the little base but the lights were in great working condition so I grabbed it as it was only 6 bucs has any ine used em for early vegging
