[StonerGrower]

You can veg however long you want to, however when it comes to flowering you have to wait untill just the right time to harvest. Do a search of the site for "the trichome method" and you should get some really good info.

[getsumkin]

yea ur rite...I need to wait till its ready...jus wondering if the setup needed mor cfl's or the hps would b enough the hps is red and blue with 55000 lumins...the cfl will b 20000 or so

[StonerGrower]

Depends on exactly how many plants you want to grow. The average I believe is 2000 lumens per square foot. Im my old house (havent got a growroom set up in this one yet) depending on which room I was growing in I kept and average of 3500 per square foot.

im still waitn on my things to cum should b here on the 9th....cant want to see how this tunrs out...ill post pic of setup wen it comes i and i put all in place....stay tuned...for my 1st real try at this... should b pretty nice ive done alot of reading so....
i got 20 seeds germ..i going to use the cup for 3 weeks and then put in 3gal grow bags...what do u think
i got a 400watt mh 38k lumen and 400watt hps 55k lumenfor ligthing and the grow space is 31,5 x 31,5 x 63...plants will b about 15''-20'' wen i start to flower

Sounds fine to me, just remember the golden rule 1 seed per container. Alot of new growers like to put 2 or 3 or 10 in one pot. What size cups are you gonna use, the big red solo kind?

[getsumkin]

yea the 12-16 oz ones from wally world....for sure 1 per pot...not sure on how many i can fit in the grow area but ima try to get all of them in but as many i can wit the fans and other thing in with them but ..i think the bags r the way togo with the space

Yes. 1 plant per container. It's ok to have 20 plants as long as they're all in their own separate containers.

There are exceptions to that rule ;-)

[Ms.Fox]
