1. Yes the lighting is the same as far as colour red and blue or you can get a dual spectrum light.

2.i dont think the nutes in the soil will actualy last 3mths id get some nutes.

3. Yes have the CFL about 6inch away just for like the first few days then lower it slowley to around 3-4inch

the maricale grow i have feeds up to 6 months it worked with my tomatoe but i also fed that a gallon of water mixed with one big tablespoon of MG lol and ok so i can get a dual spectrum, as for sprial lights if i get them can i say get one that is blue and one red?

and also i am from usa, is there a place i can get a 125w dual spectrum bulb at other than online, like can i go to our local hardware store, a home depot, walmart what

 

[greenthumper]

You could go to a local hydroponics store, that's where I got my dual spectrum 125w. Local hardware stores typically only have up to 60w.

 

[gtganjagirl18]

dont have any local hydro shops will like a flower shop work or something like that

 

[gtganjagirl18]

nvm i found one thanks alot

ok so im getting 1 125w cfl dual spectrum and ill go to walmart to get a few spiral cfl lights here is the ? since i am getting a dual spec cfl light what should i get in the spials? should i get a warm spec then a cool spec to kind of equal it out?

 

[greenthumper]

Either of the spectrum's would be fine, just remember you want 75-100w per plant.

yes get a warm and a cold.... the more spectrum available the better in my experience.

led (forget which)


hps:


the whole spectrum;


and of course... inverse square law:




and if you can swing it... pick up a few reptisun 20 uvb bulbs for reptiles... makes a huge difference in THC production. :thumbs:
