Your plants look nice and healthy.

What lights are you using and what is your total lumens and area in square feet?

 

[the chef]

Very nice whats ur set-up?

 

[stezy]

im using cfl's with a total output of about 11000 lumens . the area is about 3 feet deep by 2 1/2 feer wide n 6 feet tall. the bigger plants are about 6 weeks old n the littlr one is about a month.

im using cfl's with a total output of about 11000 lumens . the area is about 3 feet deep by 2 1/2 feer wide n 6 feet tall. the bigger plants are about 6 weeks old n the littlr one is about a month.

What you have now is 1,467 lumens per/sq ft.

Here's the math:

3 feet x 2.5 feet = 7.5 square feet of area.

11,000 lumens divided by 7.5 square feet is 1,467 lumens per/sq ft.

***
What would max out your grow is 5,000 lumens per/sq ft.

That would take 37,500 total lumens.

A single 250 watt HPS would give you 28,500 lumens, which would be 3,800 lumens per/sq ft.

This would be much better than what you have now. Not as good as 5,000 lumens per/sq ft, but way better than 1,467 lumens per/sq ft that you have now.

Of course, it would require more cooling also.

It would tighten up your nodes a lot and make your buds larger and more dense.

im most likely going to swich over to a 250w mh here soon thanks for the info!

I wouldn't wait too much longer. Your nodes are already stretching. This will affect your plants more and more as they grow taller. Less nodes = Less Buds

stezy.. you name reminds me of one you would hear yelled out at a party STTEEZZZZZZY.
IMO if you dont have a HID light already.. get a 400w hps or 600w hps.. veg with it and flower with it... way better then all.. but im no expert, just like to try en help..

i just put in a 400w hps light so hopefully they will like the light more and be happy!

 

[cmd420]

yeah..they look healthy for sure, but different lighting would bush them out more...more bud 4 u!!

 

[stezy]

the babies with their new lights sooooo happy now!!!!
