Just wondering would 6 LED light bulbs 10 watts each globes removed and my 19 watt LED light plus a 24 watt t5ho and a 60 watt t8 light be enough for 1 plant in a 2x2 grow space

Yes it sure is just want to make use of what I have instead of spending money I will be growing a mystery seed that will either be a White widow or a lemon drop strain last grows did not yeild much so I'm thinking one plant all lights together should be much better then previous setup

Its like this- Ill front you 1g so you can get operational at 2% juice a week- that's 20$ you owe me per week just to stat current, pay the principle whenever you can, additionally I need to get my beak wet so I would need 50% of all dried bud final product that is produced as a result of my generous contribution. Deal?

they looked pretty decent too
but if you are in canada, put a begging ad on kijiji asking for a free 600 watt because you are poor and show them your light set up

Day 3 seed is now in pro mix soil (I didn't have enough left So i recycled old soil)
It is under a 24 hour light cycle to start it out haven't tried this with seedlings before temp in my grow area is 30c
I want to experiment with some miracle grow tomato once it gets bigger was thinking maybe go quarter strength
will be using tap water that is set out for a few days for watering
