Ok I will definitely do that and when you say flip what do you mean? Again forgive my ignorance as I’m still a newbie lolid say transplant,far as what size depends on you,i use 3 gal pots and flip at 16inches,my tent is only 5ft tall so after stretch i have right at 2 ft from canopy to light,with a lot of training
man, be careful wth the overwaterings .. they are already lightly clawing, i advise you to do some more waterings in these solo cups .. and repot when you have to water it everyday or the other eventually .. soil need oxygenation before every wateringOk I will definitely do that and when you say flip what do you mean? Again forgive my ignorance as I’m still a newbie lol
Yea I have to water everyday now so I will definitely be repotting them sometime today I was thinking about using two 5 gallon buckets I have to replant them in but is the soil I’m using good to use for repotting them with or should use I something else? Also Have to get another bulb which do you suggest?man, be careful wth the overwaterings .. they are already lightly clawing, i advise you to do some more waterings in these solo cups .. and repot when you have to water it everyday or the other eventually .. soil need oxygenation before every watering
Ok awesome thank you for telling me that before I would’ve bombed it lol I will repot in smaller containers.as a final container i would not use anything over 1.5 gal .. you want to water every 2/3 days . if you repot in a 5 gal it will take weeks to dryout
What bulb do you suggest?Think you light is a bit to close would also back it off and as suggested you will need a much bigger light in terms of wattage.
I mean to start maybe a 400-600w MH/HPS of you wanna stay on the lower end of cost. What you have is good for seedlings and house plants.What bulb do you suggest?
when you flip light schedule to 12 12Ok I will definitely do that and when you say flip what do you mean? Again forgive my ignorance as I’m still a newbie lol
nope gotta to disagree with that statement,i listen to several folks for years say same thing,so finally last summer i bought 2 300 watt led lights,the heat sored threw the roof barely got a harvest from it,my 400 HID run 15 degree cooler with the cool tube,so aint buying it anymore,i only use them things to start my veggie seedlings now,in winter,lmaoKnow that running any HID will require serious ventilation or an AC, or both. Running an LED is cooler but you still need fresh air ventilation.
To grow pot, you can expect to spend $300-$500 on lighting and ventilation for a small basic grow done properly. Cheaper if you hunt around for used equipment.

aint shitting bro ,i couldnt keep this tent under 85 degrees with both them,even wide open exhaust couldnt get it cool enough and plants suffered from it,so let me rewrite what i said,in a tent with forced air only,no ac no heat,just what mother nature provides they aint worth 2 cents and hot as hell,thats a big difrence i think and will have folk neutral on thought of using them,another thing is always heard the make tighter buds,nope didnt happen,honestly even with my veggies i have under them right now arent doing great either,they got 1 more week and out comes the hid lights hahahah,i should have had my brocille and cauliflower outside 3 weeks ago,damn doctors are really steaming me right now,not a excuse for laziness though,they pass a law were everyone has to have insurance or penalized,so i go to the heart doctor and they tell me they dont take humana gold plus,one of the best providers,all good,damn women went and made another apointment with new doc,they are struck as to why the first doc wouldnt see me and even out of her own mouth and on speaker phone said reason behind it is some doc dont wont to negotate prices of service,well hell what happened to patient care right ,all about the bucks,hahahahah this women needs to let up cause a secret is im gonna die everyone is hahahahIve never run LED so what do I know lol, just going off what I read here. Either way, point is they'll need ventilation of some sort and that needs to be considered regardless what light they choose. Or there is always the Londonbud style of rocking an array of incandescent and CFLs lol.
Maaaan I’m so glad I found this forum thank you guys for all the advice & yea I live in Illinois right outside Chicago so soon it’ll be cold so I’m glad to find this out now.dont bother with the leds . or even with red spectrum cfl .. if the weather is cool where you live you could get a 250watt hps for those 2 plants ...( soon is the winter, if its cold like where i live you wont need any exhaust, just a small fan to circulate te air ..)
you will just have to veg few week more
i agree,hahahah im just sick of lights,my youngest boy ran over a deer and i rebuilt the whole car almost,the radiator and condensor fans,broke off one the female plugs on one fan,im gonna build a box and stick that bitch in my utility room for exhausting the air from there,that thing zings hahah,gonna be a perfect condition for the room ,door opens to outside and only thing not natural is no sun lmaoLEDs are not all created equally. That I can assure you. Quantum LEDs using Samsung 301 or OSRAM diodes are much more efficient than burples. A meanwell driver is much more efficient than the ones included in self contained burple lights which in and of themselves put off lots of heat. A quantum board with a meanwell driver will not raise ambient temps much if any at all.
