New Grower - Speedy

Discussion in 'Growing Marijuana Indoors' started by seanspeedy, Mar 18, 2010.

  1. Hi to everyone I just started to germinate my 6 lowryder 1 in paper towels.
    Created my growbox (Pics soon). As this is my first time with lowryder I'll send pics every 3-4 days. So if anyone sees me doing something wrong please help.

    details on growbox-
    for first 2 weeks 200w cfl 6400k
    from 3rd week to finish 200w cfl 2100k
    2 pc fans
    humidity measurer.
    Aluminium covering all around.
    I was also thinking for the first 2 weeks 18 hours of light(6400k) - 3rd week on 16 hours of light (2100k)

    I'll send pics tommorrow
    Hope all goes well!!!!:smoking::smoking::smoking:
     
  2. Aluminum is no good...will create heat and hot spots (not good for your babies)...either go mylar...or the less expensive route of either flat white paint or a fire blanket
     
  3. I'd go 20/4 the whole way, especially using CFLs
     
  4. ok but are the lights ok?
    and whats mylar?
    Thanks
     
  5. and also where do i buy mylar?
     
  6. Mylar is reflective film, you can get it at any hydro shop, or on ebay.
     
  7. You dont need to by mylar unless you want to, the tinfoil wont burn your plants unless the shiny side is reflecting on the plants. If you use the dull side of the foil you will have no problems especially because your only using cfls they dont produce much heat unless its very close. I use tin foil in my grow box and i have no problems.
     
  8. Thanks for the info very helpful later ill post some pics even if im still in germination fase.
