Hey man I would have them 5 or 6" away to begin but by now you could have them quite close I'd imagine. Try some other spectrums instead of all warm white, or all daylight, but certainly, it will work as you say. Water them when the soil dries out and the pot is lighter. Once they get bigger they get a lot more tolerant and aren't so prone to overwatering. Good luck.

im using 6500 kelvin fluoros for veg of clones .. makes the clones/seedslings quite bushy ..

also you are using the same amount for veg / flower ? 12 cfl / 12 cfl ? you should either raise the flower amount or lower the veg amount imho

If you go 10 days between feedings~~~You should reconsider your medium mix. Somethings not right, AND it will effect overall productivity, And it;s gonna TAKE you longer to get to where you want. But thats my opinion. :smokey:yesyesyes

10 days~~~I WISH


Clones or Mature Plants~~~About every three days (If Yer Mix is fer kicking)

You should've read my entire thread before building. I solved several of the problems with the first design in the first several pages, due to helpful hints from others on the good ole IC. (One of them being the use of 42w instead of 26w.)

Love to see some more pics of your wetbar, though.

Good work so far!
