    I live in sweden so we dont have the same shops. I Went to a warehouse and bought 2x T8 bulb total $8 ;) And the K = Kalvin which is the spectrum the light is in. Red spectrum is good for flowering and i "think" blue is for growing. (no time to check it up atm) But there is alot of threads...

    2 of } F20T12 fluorescent grow light bulb 3000K 20w 24"

    Is it for the flower stage? Or are them for both grow and flower? you need some 5000-6500K for growing. But for flowering stage they are good choice. But it will work with 2500-2700K as well but wont be optimal. Edit: i got a 2700K CFL 200w that i use for my seedlings (waiting for my 6500K)...

    Slow Growing

    Someone posted a PDF file a day ago or so cant remember the link atm but am sure you find it if you look a bit. you should read it or parts of it. Also let the dirt dry out a bit that way the plant will grow more roots. I think thats the biggest reason for growing slow, you might give them a...

    seeds Planting Open Pollinated Seed

    I would say 10% maybe. But it depends on so much, if the people you trade with trade seeds from same pod or if they do from more then one pod. But yes most of the seeds that people trade grow true that is OP else i think we would want to trade OP seeds at all. But am fairly new to the trade...

    seeds Another lamp question for seedlings

    I think i will go with my T8 tubes for now might buy some T8 6500K light to combine it with 4000K light. But i am also after something for bigger plants and LED is an interested alternative as i have to buy new reflectors and ballast and the MH lamp. I think a LED would be a much money in the...

    seeds Another lamp question for seedlings

    Thanks for the tip. I have been looking at led before. I do like them, they are a bit expensive but in the long run you get the money back for sure. But i always thought they where better for blooming then grow. I might just buy 2x 90w UFOs instead of 2x 400 MH for the bigger plants. And then i...

    seeds Another lamp question for seedlings

    Thats some good stuff there! Thanks for the link! Yes we have it like that, i think the 4000K will do just fine as well. As i will only use it on seedlings that i want to grow a bit and dont get leggy. But i did find a T8 light for a very cheap price as well in 6500K but i dident say the lumen...
