You need more light. A lot more. It looks good so don't try to push nutrients.

You need at least 3x at much light...at least...just for that plant. Maybe more if you insist on using cfl's for lighting. If you're doing a single plant I'd just invest in a 400w MH/HPS...cheap, effective...or if heat is a concern, you could always go with LED's or CMH...

If i put there hps or mh temperature is will increase. I will add there 2x 80W cfl. Is it enough?

I made a cheap reflector for one of these and it covered a fair area.

I'm not sure that would be enough light, it might, and I'm sure that it would work fine, but I wouldn't expect any seriously explosive growth though...I'd probably consider LED's if HID lighting is too much heat output!

Did the same starting out....

NOT TO START A FIGHT!!!!! I have this light for my clones when they get strong enough to move away from the T-5. Easy on the power meter and the wallet.

Logan Burke · Jul 14, 2018

Hey if you can make it work for ya then more power to you Jypsy! Have you ever looked at CMH lighting? I know it's a tad bit expensive out of the gate in comparison to regular HID, but boy do they look worth it... here's a link to the one I'm about to get!

I second a better light source.
How are the root temps?
18 - 21'C is about perfect.
25'C for ambient room temperature is about right imo too.

Tell you what though, id take a few cuttings for clones.
The sugary leaves are a very, very promising sign of things to come.
Nice looking plant you have there.

:peace:

Ambient temperature is 30-31'C. I will add 2x 80w cfl soon.

That is a little hot imho.
Fine for a fast veg if you have decent humidity. But its gonna be a problem during flower.

What's your air extraction like?
How large is your space?
What size is your inline fan?

I went through (3) phantoms under warranty before I went to a sun system 315. Zero problems with the new light and I love it!!!!

170 actual watts or equivalent?

You want at least 150 actual for the first plant and at least 75 actual watts for each additional plant.

I grow in a spare bathroom in the Desert.... HEAT is my biggest issue. Without a light running 18, my bills run 250+ LED is my best option now. I don't run my Larger LED's until OCT.
