lighting?

  1. What kind of fluorescent bulbs should you get? How much sun light should you give a young plant a day. Also how much water should I give it?
     
  2. o man. try reading a little bite but. for veg cycle you want 6500k lights and 18/6 for the light timer. t5 tubes or cfls(compact fluorescent lights). and for flower cycle you want 2700k lights and 12/12. dont need much water. weed plants dont like too much water. it also depends on the size of the plant? what size contAINER? how much drainage? how much heat? i water my plant only 3 times a week. tues/thur/sun its in a 5 gallon bucket. and i give it 2 red party cups of water.
     
  3. what is your budget? I reccomend HPS over LED anyday. is that feasible in your ggrow condition?
     
  4. Yeah that's what I have been doing is a little research not a lot. But thanks for the info. Where can you pick up these lights?
     
  5. I'm just trying to do it as cheap as possible but I am going to throw some money into it.

    Throw some effort into reading the stickies at the top of this section. If you want to just throw money at pot, throw it at a good dealer. Not trying to discourage you, just understand that you need to put some time and effort into growing or there's no point starting.
