i want to grow 5-10 blueberry lowryder auto-flowering plants, could anyone help on the cheapest/most efficient lighting solution thanks
well 10 plants your gonna be looking at a lot of light..even with 5 plants you will want at least a 4 to 600 watt if you do cfls your still lookin at at least 2 lights per plant.. so either way its roly not going to be cheap unless you only growin like 2 plants
thanks man, what about 3 plants, with these bulbs Spiral Energy Saving BC 18w CFL - Screwfix.com, Where the Trade Buys or is the wattage too low?
They are way to low, There only 18watts you are going to need about 300watts + for 3 plants, search online for cfl's im sure you can get some of fleabay cheap.
yup for sure your right you'll need a higher watt cfl i run 6 26 watt cfls and a 70 watt hps to vegg just 3 plants they are doing great but i will be adding more cfls and changing the 70 watt bulb for a 100 watt bulb when its time to flower if your trying to grow 10 plants with cfls well thats gonna be a shit load i'd just go buy a 400 0r 600 watt hps instead of having to keep hassel'n with all those bulbs
