How does direct sunlight do?
How does direct sunlight do?Remember that CFL bulb will only help during the seedlings stage your going to need something more powerful for Veg and a completely different light for Flowering...
Sunlight is the best light for plants, nothing can compare... The problem with the sun is that it's not shining for 18 hours, so depending on where you live the light cycle of the sun right now might be good for Flowering but not for Veg. It's best to start outdoor grows around spring or early summer, since in fall and early winter, days are shorter and nights are longer, which triggers flowering.How does direct sunlight do?
So would the UV light help in flowering or veg? I already know it won't help in seedling stageSunlight is the best light for plants, nothing can compare...

Plants need a full spectrum of light, not just UV.So would the UV light help in flowering or veg? I already know it won't help in seedling stage
Thanks. I definitely need a few more thingsIf you really want to start your own little grow, all you need for now is a grow light. It's best to buy a full spectrum light and just get rid of of the bulbs all together, a full spectrum light can take you from seed to smoke without problems.
Are you planning on growing indoor or outdoor? Sunlight through a window will not work for flowering. If you are doing indoor get a decent led. The 150pro i have in my signature will work great for 1 maybe 2 plants in a small tent 2x2. Then tent helps reflect the light back to the plant and to maintain heat/humidity.
If you are doing outdoor then you might be to late this year, anything you put out now will start flowering immediately. You will only get 1 very small bud out of it. In virgina you want to start out door plants in early june. That gives them time to get big before they start flowering in i
Probably indoor. I have a tent and light setup. Just found a full spectrum bulb like Z recommended. It was also an old seed so.Are you planning on growing indoor or outdoor?

a full spectrum 150W efficient Led is a great place to start. also very affordable. if and when you decide to increase the size of your grow you can keep using that as a perfect seedling clone and veg light and something more powerful for flowering more than a couple of small plants.Thanks.

Can you share details or pictures of the full spectrum bulb ?Probably indoor. I have a tent and light setup. Just found a full spectrum bulb like Z recommended. It was also an old seed so.
Can you share details or pictures of the full spectrum bulb ?
Vipraspectre is great imoCan you get your hands on better seeds ? Maybe buy some online? If you can, put the little seedling to rest and get yourself a grow light, I bought mine for 70$ from Vipar Spectra
Honestly I don't think it's powerful enough to even grow one plant, most of those companies will lie about the spectrum and specs of the bulbs... It might be good for lettuce or some small house plants, but cannabis plants grow tall and bushy, they need a strong light.Keep in mind I'm only trying to grow one plant at a time
Yeah, I have the P1000 and it's been amazing so far, I got two plants under it and they are thriving considering the lack of equipmentVipraspectre is great imo
How do you know its strong enoughYeah, I have the P1000 and it's been amazing so far, I got two plants under it and they are thriving considering the lack of equipment
Get a trusted and proven light from a reputable company. A grow light for 2 plants will go for around 65-100$ but if your getting 40 grams per plant, that's 80 grams of weed your saving money on.How do you know its strong enough
