    tell me what you think...im only using 26watt cfls...im going tomorrow to get 42watt cfls

    why are the leaves curling under? is that just how it grows or is something wrong?...it happened in 1 day

    i have two 150watt hps bulbs but i cant figure out how to power them...nothing ive tried powers them...anyone have a clue?

    overwatering maybe?


    and you need a ballast or something to power the hps i think. idk, im not the guy to answer that.

    will it recover?...ive stopped overwatering

    where do i get a ballast and how much is it?

    ok...screw that...those ballasts are way to expensive...

    more than you've spent on bud in the last few months?

    I'm not knocking CFL grows, but if you have 300 watts of hps power, youll see much better results than 80 watts of CFL.

    I agree... The ballast is well worth the money... especially if you plan to grow more than just this once.

    ok, ive got it all setup...two 42 watt cfls...one for each plant...ill get two more of those next week...but one of my leaves got a little brown spot on it...should i be worried? do i need to trim it?...the spot is only like 0.5cm in diameter

    your lights are probably burning the plant.

    move the lights back.

    remember to move the lights back when the plant grows to.
