fluro lights

[El_Badass]

thanks for the tips gaz! and when I get my grow on I fully intend to use fluoros........ for clones as I'd rather not spend 7 months in veg. Heck it's so dry and I've been smoking leaf for so many weeks that I want my phat buds ASAP!! (cue the violins)

yeah I agree with the fluro's used for the veg. I have been using them for over a year now...theres advantages like saving the life of the HPS globe, fewer heat related issues. Not sure why you would veg for 7months.... If anything.... the veg. time may be increased by afew days. Aslong as you have great soil/medium for the plants they will grow just as good under afew fluros until they are ready for the sodium light.

Plus there are variations like T4's, aquarium lights, CF's etc....

I use compact floros/ 1-125W for Veg!

 

I have pics up in the forum so you can get a idea of how they are.. Keep in mind there aliitle streched because i had light to high but once clones have rooted they get to about 7 inches in 2 or 3 weeks.. If thats any help?
