Hey everyone. I'm currently using a 2.3x.2.3x5 grow tent and a Mars II 400 LED light for my grows. I was looking at adding some additional light and was thinking about throwing in 2X 6500k and 2X 2700K CFL's. I know I can't put too much light in that small space, but would I just be better off...

Yep it's official. Both of my Apollo 75 watt cfl's glow after lights off. Even a few hours later. I mean glowing bright enough where you can see your hand. I was unscrewing them and putting them in the closet, then one night I forgot. I just don't use them anymore. My Apollo 250 watt CFL's...

I might be overthinking this. I want to set up a simple small veg area in the walk in closet where my tent is. It will consist of a 2x2 hydro tub with a few plants/clones sitting under one or two 65w CFLs. I have a tent in the closet. Currently running 18/6 with autos so this is not an...

Hello all, I am new to the forums and new to growing all together. My current setup consists of a 36" x 36" x 72" grow tent with single MarsHydro Mars300 LED Full Spectrum grow light (with a second on the way.) Whilst chatting with a coworker, he recommended that I add some CFL lights. I...

Hey guys Due to some unforeseen circumstances i had to move my plants into the cabinet today. So i went out i got what i could afford so long and get the setup going. Now i know there are still a lot missing and to be done but hopeful this will do for the next few days till i get the rest i...

Okay folks. Here's my third grow. Other two are in the works. Both in flower. Seeing as I can only have 6 plants at a time, looks like I will be running 3 different strains (2 ea) at a time. I have already learned a lot even though I have not brought anything to harvest yet. I have...

Need some opinions: Next week my second mars300 Hydro will arrive. My inventory will include 2 Mars 300's and about 2 dozen or more 23 W CFLS in both daylight and soft white. I have 2 active 9 SF grow areas, one for veg and one for flower. What is the best way to use the mars units? Do I...

Hi, My girls are showing signs of browning/purpling? Could this be an issue with my lighting? The plants are 2.5 weeks old after popping from the soil. Originally I had them under a 54W T5 single bulb light, but they were growing so slowly that I added 2x23W 6500K CFL and 2x40W 5500K CFLs...

Started growing using CFLs. I have 4 100watt replacement CFLs in a tinfoil lined box with some regular store bought soil.
