Sounds good, thanks for the advice. One thing that I noticed that over a couple of hrs. the leaves were coming up again. I watered it today so I'll wait 3 days and water her again.

Mr. Skunk, I thank you very much for your time. You have been very helpful. This is only the second one that I tried. Your plants look great.

Yea, the ones I use for flower are 2700k I have 4) 200 watt that put out 55 watts each and they are 2700k each with about 16,000 lumens. The 6) smaller one are 100 watt each but use only 23 watts each and they are about 9960 total lumens. These are cfl's.
