Re: Blueberry Bliss & Amnesia Haze Autos (CFL Grow)
Most CFL bulbs give out 50-60 lumens per watt. I started with eight 65w bulbs and have added a 100w and 3 more 65w as the plants grew. (the 100w mainly covers my photoperiod plant in veg on one side of the cabinet). As for cloning: I cut lower pieces that have at least 2 or 3 nodes, cut at a 45 degree angle and stick directly in a cup up ro (distilled water). Lightly scrape the stem with a razor removing the first layer of "skin" then dip in root-x cloning powder then plant in mix of 60% peat 40% vermiculite. I remove the dome 2 or 3 times per day to give fresh air for about 5 min each time. I dont mist the dome because there is about an inch of water in the bucket the pots are sitting in. This creates the humidity needed inside the dome. I don't have cloning mastered yet and usually get a 50-60% success rate, but this is how i do it.
