    Hey everyone. This is my first time growing and have some questions about my lights. I have cfls, these are the sizes
    3-105w, 3000k, 5000 lumens-flowering
    2-105w, 6500k, 5000 lumens-daylight(vegetative)
    1-105w, 5000k, 5000 lumens-super white

    I was wondering how many plants would I be able to grow with these? And how should I set up my lights?
    (I know hps/mh lights are better I'm just running this till I can afford better.)

    Ya. Should I use all 6 the entire time? Or just the veg for veg ad flowering for flowering?

    use them all for both, veg& flower with them. you have enough for a little growroom. 3x4ft. I wouldnt get to crazy with grows since the little ones can take off under clf. but when they begin to size up. you have minimum coverage ..

    Ok thanks :) ya I got a few free feminized seeds with my order so I was going to grow a couple under the cfls to learn what I'm doin and after a grow or 2 I'll be able to afford a hps.

    you arent growing 50 dollar bills here....one of the rules of growing is never spend the money till the weed is sold...make sure you clip a bunch of clones during veg before you flip the lights...i would clip 50 cause clones dont need that killer light...it is great practice for when you do start growing 50s....clones go for up to 20 dollars apiece if you have serious weed...probably even more in states...florida probably gets 50 a clone

    good luck:)

    Clones around here are like 5-10 each. But I was just planning to sprout up these seeds for practice. I got 6 feminized seeds from herbie for free. 3 diff types. Plus my 2 sets of 10 that I bought. I was gonna use the free ones for practice since I've never grown before. I've done alot of research on it tho do I think I'll do alright. Unfortunately I bought cfls before I knew what I was doing :(

    I don't have room to clone right now. All I have is a 6.5x6.5x6.5 grow tent to grow in

    How many do you think I would be able to grow under those lights and still get a good yield?

    I intend to veg for 8 weeks and then however long in flowering
