Need a lil info...


Recommended Posts

not sure where to start BB...

dont have it close to that light it will burn... if you have a normal flouro globe, you know the ones that fit house fittings... use that...ad another 3 if you can...

 

needs a new pot... repot it, bury it right up to the first set of leaves.. make sure your soil has good drainage...bilo potting mix is usually good, heaps of bark in it...

 

also you might want to paint your chamber... flat ceiling white...

get some gyprock cement..make up a watery slurry and paint it on the surface.. wait for it to dry, sand smooth... this will fill the cracks, giving a much better reflection... if you insist on using the flouro, which will be fine, you will need to do this to get the light intensity...

 

also ad a little computer fan to get some air move ment.. just as an exhuast will be enough to create some air flow in there...

 

the better you sort all these things out the better you buds will be...

 

it all cost money I know, but check second hand shops, you will be surprised what you can find.. paint and gyprock cement might set ya back $20-$30...use a light grade painters sand paper.. a peice about 30 cm will be plenty ..its only about $3 a meter.. computer fan might be $10 or so..

what ss has said is right get a compact fluro bulb should be about 5-10 bucks this will help heaps no real need for a 400w yet but your plants will love ya if ya can get one but as i said ys fluro's will do fine

 

definatly repot to at least a 22cm pot and put a tray or tub under it but make sure that ya plant is not sitting in the water and yeah get some paint and and get some whiteness in that enclosure that will inprove ya light

One plant , put it outside during the day ( unless its snowing) when you can to give the right spectrum of light untill you get a propper light and bring it in for the night and to get the remainder of your 18hrs light cycle , its easier to prevent things from going wrong than trying to fix them after it happens .
