i like the t5 / cfl combo, i have something similar setup for my first grow but haven't set the cfls up yet... interesting about the 24/7 | 20/4 thing but I think I'd prefer to go 20-4 light cycle to give a little rest (from what I've read). Although I do it more as an option to cut power costs; I don't think yield will suffer and I would suppose people vary on opinion about what's better. Also... I've read mixed results on scrogging autos because it seems it takes less stress to stunt them as opposed to a regular fem. hell, what do I know? they look good and healthy! Here's a pic of my setup: View attachment 1713728
Autos love 18/6 all the way through some swear by 20 and 4 but I find the best results from 18/6. They look great how close are you keeping the light from the canopy?
I keep the light at least 2 to 3 inches above the top of my plant. & I have them on a 19/5 schedule . They have been bulking up the last few days.
Sweet. That's one nice looking plant yunnghawk. I'm getting ready to start a new grow and this is one is the two strains I chose. It's good to get a look at what to expect. I'll be growing mine under LED and CFLs in living organic soil. I'll be interested in seeing if mine turns out significantly different from yours.
