CFL side lighting

Discussion in 'Growing Marijuana Indoors' started by guygreenthumbs, Oct 17, 2014.

  1. I recently purchased 6 125 watt cfl grow lights from hydrofarm. I wanted to know how close these lights can get before damaging the plants. Ive got them dropped in and touching right now but I did my best to keep the touching to minimum.
     
  2. I grow with a 125w cfl and keep them about 2-3 inch away, have had burn off them before so watch as they stretch.
     
  3. Will do. As I stated in the title these are for side lighting. I am usong 2 1000 watt hps and 3x300 watt leds as my primary lighting. Oh ya forgot to mention this is in a 4x8 closet :)
     
  4. Are you running CO2?
     
  5. No im not. I have a 750 cfm exhaust fan doing a good bit of air exchange and a pedestal fan on max moving the air. Large opening for fresh air to come in.
    Id like to run co2 just dont have the money for a proper set up right now.
