Ok another quick question when my plant starts flowering and I switch to 2700k (using cfl) 2 that are 100 watts a piece how close do I get them to the plant (there will only be one plant in a closet)
 
they will shoot fast so pay attention the strecth fast when they begin total distance im not sure may 12" but others can tell u better ....alot of people who do cfl have them placed in all different place to penetrate the sides and all ....aslong as they dont bur the tips your ok ......

maybe search some threads that grow cfl as well and get different ideas bro best advice i could give ya

Yea bro that would be nice but my pockets aint deep enough and im tring to save up to get a kickass light setup but out of of the shit so gotta do something cheap and fast but my ultimate goal is to get set up pretty good but for now got to stick with the cfls but anything is better than nothing I guess and yea thats the only thing I think its gonna hurt me is the temperature bc we are in the upper ninties here and I can only imagine how hot my little closet will be but ill figure out something any suggestions on keeping cool

im having heat issues right now ma self so i went this afternoon and bought the bloom bulbs and put 2 of them and 2 of the grow ...i have a vertical 4' 2 bulb and a blackstar 100w ufo led 6 band so i changed the bulbs asked opinions and hopefully ill see some results in the am ...i get to 85 if i water in the am and humidity gets in almost 50s so ill see what happens tomorrow but they did cool down to 83 but its also dark now so ......good luck maybe do top bloow and sides grow ...thats what i

1 more thing im addicted to this shit for the last 2 weeks im here reading looking being nosidey on every thread that i think or have been told are great to read ....if ya have time geek out ...next grow will be alot better for you ...u could find all sorts of different micro grows that al like 4 cfl bulbs multipot grows for the experienced only ....ill try ....any who happy growing

With ur cfls it wont hurt to keep them about 2 " away i use a couple 115w cfls for vegging and i run them as close as possible to get a fair amount of light to the ppants but i have had them litteraly touching my leaves before and it barly done any damage. So as long as u give ur plants about a inch or so u should be alright with cfls but u should make sure u got good ventalation and maybe a fan rotaring that blows on ur plants just make sure its not like gale force winds hittin the plants. If u want some heavy duty stems to support the bud weight poiy a fan at the stems from the beggining of veg. Its kinda a form of low stress training that will cause ur stems to react by thickenin once u hit full flowr u can turn the fans off tye stems to take any stress off so tye plant can focuse back on budding
