How close to put this CFL

[Shayne010944]

Still have a hydro rig?

Yeah sure do bro , going away in couple weeks for a holiday so when I get back then I’m gunna get it running again. Probably gunna use the sf7000 this time and get it pumping

swapped out the CFL for my burple. cranked it straight to %100 but one of the leaves canoed .. thinking it couldnt handle it.

side branching taking forever to develop and i dunno why

 

[Shayne010944]

burple light would be better then the CFL ??

 

[Shayne010944]

no one knows ?

the blurple lol for sure.

I prefer cfl over blurple.

 

[Observationist]

just seal the tent up, spray the tent or add a little humidifier

youll be fine

id like to do a little CFL veg again, but i bet that blurple is pulling more watts than the CFL

but idk what size CFL

 

[Observationist]

high blue ratio grows plants more compact, tighter nodes

That 6500k cfl is the best seedling light I know of.

its 130w cfl but the burple is 130w too . burple seems to make them happier lol . also its keeping the heat up as its winter where i am

yeah they loved it for seedling but side branches havent developed much. so thats why i have swapped it out

can use both lol

oh yeah, they are perfect for seeedlings, doesnt have to be alot of watts-cheaper, and not too intense for the lil babes either

been amending various lamps (MH, HPS, MH+HPS, CFL 6500k & 7200k) with various monochromatic diodes and can say CFL + 660nm/730nm grows way better. Looking more happy, clones root better. Plus how efficient these diodes get in terms of raw light output.

Think these two will work well together?
I am having no issues running a 1000w HPS in a 4x4. So far the plants stretch 3 ft with the light always on max. They stop about a foot from it and wont get closer lol. . . i mean its a 1000w hps in a 4x4. Anyways, im thinking its still not enough light, and I have a tsl 2000 that I could slide in there too. Here are the exact waves for both my lights. Im more less needing input on how these spectrums line up. the heat will be no issue. So its a 250w light also. I think 1250w worth of light should work well. I just know 1000w isnt enough.

wow 1000w in a 4x4 that should be more then enough ?

You would think lol. . .yet I dont even get leaf burn yet. Buds are 1ft away and the leafs look fine. I gotta go with my gut lol. . MORE MORE MORE. Now im not saying I dont have a few deffeciencies up top, they demand quite alot and i go about 3 days without touching my res. From my perspective, ill never have enough light.

lol - these new little babys freaked when they went from CFL to blurple at %100 so i backed the blurple off to %75 and they seem ok now. spewing though cause im going away in 5 days and cant leave them in the house. but when im back gunna get the hydro going with new beans and the sf7000
