I haven't tried this Jamaican yet, but heard from others it is very good. The Blueberry has kept me smilin for the last couple of days. Keep up the great work bro.

just 2 2700k & 2 6500k cfl's, and the 3 40w u-tubes. & thanks, but i dont think youll get t8s in there, not a big enough space

Crop looks fantastic WMWW, congrats on the yield. As for the T8's, you can get U-tubes that are T8 (same length/shape/pin configuration as your current U-tubes). Basically T12 tubes are the 1.5 inch diameter fluoro tubes that have been used for years. T8's are 1 inch diameter but they fit in old T12 sockets. T8's mostly use electronic ballasts too. The T8 tubes will give you a bit more light, use less power, the light levels won't degrade over time as the T12 tubes did, and they run a bit cooler. The T8 ballasts are also smaller and more efficient. Anyway, just my 2 cents, in case you end up using the box again and you have some extra cash I think upgrading to T8 tubes would be an easy and worthwhile tweak. Either way this grow was a lot of fun for us, cheers

Yes, most of us hate mg... It's not personal. MG just isn't made to grow cannabis. It's made for the masses and doesn't meet the specific needs of cannabis plants. ;-) I like Fox Farm nutes. I supplemented my grows with Grow Big and Tiger Bloom, and had great results. There are plenty of other nutes out there, so this is just MO. As far as CFL's go, I'd buy the best kind you can find with the most lumens, because of the size of the phototron. The more lights you have in there the less space you have to grow. ;-)

I believe you can get CFLs at 250w x 10000 lumens 6500k temerature
125w x 8000 lumens 6500k
250w x10000 lumens 2700k for flowering
125w x 9000 lumens 2700k


I am personally considering 3 of the 250w x 10k lumen 6500k for veging and maintaining my mothers. Unless i can Convince my dumb friend that asking 130$ for a 150w mh that he needs to get off the pain chips. As my local grow supply store sells a 250w mh with reflector for 160$ brand new.

mine are 23 & 26w cfls

Great, informative grow journal. Thanks for providing lots of good tips and information. I am attempting to use an old phototron, so this will be a valuable resource for me.
