So about 2 weeks ago, I threw a bag seed into a empty ice cream jug. Its sprouted pretty quick. Right now, there is 1 main shoot, about 2-3" tall, has 2 roundish leaves, and 2 spikey leaves. A few inches away, there are 2 smaller shoots coming up. Is this wierd to have 3 shoots on 1 seed? Also, I have just had this by my window, which gets great direct sunlight. But what Im wondering, with it being mid October, and in wisconsin, I am going to need to move this to an indoor setup. Not to sound like a cheap-ass but I am. (I have a $2000 car bill, hit a turkey going 95 mph) I plan on just getting a small light, to put into a desk lamp thingy I have, and make some sort of box. Now what I want to know, is whats the cheapest light bulb I can get. I really dont care if anything really buds or anything, because the seed was free, so a high wattage light wont do for me. Can I pick one up at Walmart or Shopko or anything?
A 250 watt hps will do ya fine.Any table top type light will be a waste of money to you as wellas the plant.They start at about a $100.Peace
damn, thats way more than I really wanted to spend. I guess I will just let this one go, see what happens. Start again when it gets warm out
nah you can find a 150w hps setup at e-conolight.com for 30-40 bucks not including shipping. you dont need to spend that much. hell, i built my carbon filter for all of 10 bucks
IMO,a 150 hps serves one purpose and thats to supply lighting needs to one plant,a mother or otherwise useless for multiple plants.
tell me more about this carbon filter? how does it work and where did you get it. And whats this about a compact flourescent light?
Yep...and a compact flourescent light is just kinda iffy...I dunno, it gets you well through veg..but then it kinda shits out on you during flowering and you get small buds...
Well i think im just gunna cheap out on this one. If i could get any more cash, I would get a nicer light. Small buds are better than no buds. I think ill pick up a small CFL
about the carbon filter. its hella simple to make. the guide is on hempcultivation.com, best growing forums out there, its where i learned everything i know about growing. the diy carbon filtrer guide is in the security forums. gl w/ your grow
