Hi! I am new to growing weed and am just dabbling around trying to see what the whole process is like. I don't care if ai yield a gram or a pound, i just want to get the whole process down.
That being said I have a few questions I need to ask, I have 2 lightbulbs and am not sure which to use. The first is a fluroescent bulb (not tube) kinda like a spotlight that is 65 watts. The second is a self ballasted mercury vapour flood lamp 160 w made by powersun. It is for reptiles but it says it omits uva, uvb, and visible light. I think it should work because reptiles need sunlight for the same reasons plants do. It doesn't seem to show and infrared in the pic it has on it.
Should i use the fluro for the beginning then switch over? use fluro the whole way through? or mv all the way
Also I am wondering can i grow them for like 3-4 weeks then put them outside? I have very very limited growing room and am sure (unless the plant stays under 1 1/2- 2 feet )i can't complete the grow inside.
