1st Grow - Bubblelicious CFL & LED Grow Tent

I hooked up my Znet with 4' chain I bought from Home Depot. And attached it to 4 screw hooks.

I feel This is much Safer than the single point connection Znet (and other leds) come with. Also makes it easier to raise and lower
 
Day 42 Update,

Buba looks a little droopy in these photos, She was thirsty and got water with Big Bloom and Tiger Bloom. Kandy got the feed too and is building nicely.

I've noticed Bubba dislikes humidity over 60%, That seems to be where she draws the line. As the RH is increasing out here, I am finding it difficult to keep up. So far I am removing about 2+ gallons of water a day from the dehumidifier. I have managed to keep the RH around 56% and temps at 77, but its constantly opening and closing up the grow area and having both the AC and the Dehumidifier going 24/7.
 
Also, in the last hour....(I know because I check every 20 minutes LOL) I see Bubba perking up and starting to grow pistils on her secondary shoots. Lookin like she is going along with the plan. I did some leaf tucking on her and threw in a large CFL 3300K to help her along if I can.
 
It will be interesting to see how my Bubs do outdoors in 90+ degree heat and 70+% RH. Bub 1 is already outside and loves that sunshine.


That will be interesting. I think your girls are sisters to my Bubba. All I know is at 61% RH her leave start to drop and curl down as if I over watered. At 59% she perks up and loves life. Unless she surprises me with a big yield I am not sure I will grow her again. Way too Finicky. :)

It's a part time job keeping her happy!
 
Looking awesome man! Good job!! :thumb:

And to answer a earlier question I actually set my alarm to wake up 10 mins before lights on so i can get woke up and get my eyes adjusted before they are blasted with 24 CFL's....:dreamy:

Any certain reason you added a 3300K bulb instead of the flowering 2700k ?

I did put in the 2700, My Bad.
55 Watt CFL Light Bulb - Compact Fluorescent - 250 W Equal - 2700K Warm White - 80 CRI - 65 Lumens per Watt - GCP 040.......
 
Ok awesome! Just wanted to make sure. Even though a 3300k spectrum would still add, 2700k is the best. FYI more smaller bulbs if possible are a lot better than one big bulb! Some don't know this so I thought i would throw that out there before you invested in 10 large bulbs. :thumb:

Yea, I didn't know that. Thanks.

I don't know why I even put it in there, I guess for side lighting. My LED seems to be doing ok! Hope its not bad to mix em.
 
Oh no! Put as many as you can fit!! Always more light with a healthy plant = more bud swelling and trichome production! Of course a lot of other factors come into play... Im almost maxed out at 24 cfls lol...
