Changes again, this time it is what it is. Whatever comes out, in the end, is better than nothing. So I constructed a light board and have attached 120watts of CFL bulbs to this board so that it can surround the plants at a close distance. There is still more 2700k spectrum to it than 6500k, but it was either full 2700k or this. I have also added a fan and humidifier I got from a friend. I call it the moonball. So for +- 4 hours a day the plants will be in direct sun, then after they will go back into the moonball for the remaining 14 hours. Then for the very first time, and a new concept to me, I have started doing L.S.T. Excited about this, as I have seen many plants done in this technique and it always did make me curious as to how it is done. Now I will get to see it for my very own eyes and my own plants :) Hopefully, I am doing it, right? suggestions are welcomed, I am learning still. #justnotgivingup
Hey Guys😬
So my grow light has popped its clogs, but I am currently unemployed and broke, and the flat that I live in does not have enough sun to move the plants to that source.
Anybody got a really low-budget solution or idea? I can construct if need be. Wanting at least 200w
Yeah! Go on Instagram and ask all the light manufacturers for a light sponsor! I have more free lights (not great, but they work) than I know what to do with! Often all they want is a five star review on Amazon!
Just going to pop this into the universe, but if anyone is willing to sponsor a grow light to someone in South Africa, please dm me. Really want to keep my grow alive. And would really appreciate it. Only need 200watts at least.
Man, that’s a real blow.
Honestly your best bet is to reach out to a few manufacturers that you know are willing to ship to you. Try email, Facebook, Instagram- whatever you use. Im doubtful any of them will see this here. Getting told ‘no’ is the worst that could come from it.
Best of luck🌱
@Bluebeast007, I would like to see that. Next to regulars and auto's, we have the Bruce Banner overnights. Sow today, harvest tomorrow... get on that breeders. ADD Seed Company for the impatient growers. Im allowed to make that joke, I got a pass.
@JamMAKEcan, sorry I only saw this now, yeah that's what I am thinking of doing with the CFLs, even getting the 85watt here is a challenge. we don't have many options. The rest of the world especially the U.S are way ahead when it comes to these things. Thinking just use them to reach 200 to 250 watts of light, 6500k spectrum, and hope for the best?
@Bluebeast007,..remember white light has full spectrum of light.. Just get a powerfull one i.e. 300 watt 150 watt 250 watt like that.. Or a couple of 75watt.. I've done it before.. Its not the best but it works. Commercial people still use white bulb
@Bluebeast007,...well old school style get a 300 watt light bulb regular 1 for ur home.. An hang it around 20inches.. Watch for light burn an adjust...that will have enough to grow in.. Also home Depot sells a led full spectrum light bulb.. $40. That has to be like 14 inches to plant.. And use foil paper to enhance the heat and help with light . uniform the spread of the light...hope that helps
