My first grow cabinet with Cfls, w/ pics

cabinet is 4ft x2x2 roughlythayI am using
  • 5-6 cfls which range from 30-42 watts. They are mixes of blue and red spectrum. All purchased at home depot/lowes. ( Packaging says they are comparable to 120-250 watt bulbs)
  • Cfl lumens are over 12000 when added together and well over 7000k when added together
  • Germinated 2 nirvana papayas which I recent purchased from drchronic.com in the right 2 containers.
  • in the larger container is some bomb ass bagseed I had laying around that Ive been experimenting with prior to receiving the nirvana. Its been abused during my trial and error, but lets all pray for the little guy
  • 1 fish tank air pump I bought for 10 $ at pet store with 2 tubes pumping air into bottom of the 2 conatiners on right side of cabinet.
  • 1 Bag of Fox Farm ocean purchased at local store. 1 bag of perlite and vermiculite. I added 1 layer of perlite to bottom of containers to allow good airflow and drainage. I then mixed 2 parts faox farm soil w/ 1 part perlite/vermiculite mixed.
  • Also have purchased fox farm grow big and big bloom at local store. ( if you cannot find foxfarm products, simply got o their website and it will help you locate your nearest foxfarm supplier.
  • Have 1 intake and 1 outake computure fans i purchased at compter store. They are both an uprgraded fana nd not the crappy ones coming from your store bout computer.
  • ON a 24/7 lighting
  • temps range from 74-82
I have watered soil so that it is moist and am waiting for it to dry
When should I use the fox farm nutes that I purchased. It gave instructions to begin using within 1st and secnd week of vegging?



PLease feel free to comment, critique or inquire!!!
