U should have a fan on them anyway, so if U are going to stick with the cfls make sure u are using 6500k for the veg and add a fan for any heat issues.

hey can you give me some advice?i started growing from seed using the 12/12 cycle. Now they are 13 days old and i was thinking of changing them to 18/6 cycle, will this harm the babies or would you suggest to gradually introduce more light to them. This is my first grow.

I mean I think it might stress em a little bit...but in nature they survive quite a lot of stress ya know?? I think you could change em and have good results....only one way to find out!! Remember....MJ is a weed. Lately i have been paying attention to all the strong vigorous weeds i see everywhere...growing in crazy conditions....like through tiny cracks and stuff.....and it gives me way more faith in my plants. Just sharing a bit...haha

lol yea thats what i keep thinking myself, but from all these things i have been reading, growing with artificial light and fertilizers and all that, they seem to have to be very specific to get a good potent product. but anyways i changed the lights and so far so good they look healthy and happy. I am gradually bumping the light up to so if anything I'm thinking that will help a bit.

just a regular, incandescent flood lamp?? If so wont do jack. The spectrum in incandescent bulbs is insufficient for plant growth. IMHO that is. Whats the deal with molasses?? I just use my fox farms nutes....trying to keep it simple...but if what you're doing IS simple...please let me know...I have heard of it...as well as adding epsom salts and other stuff....
