CFL don't really have the oomph for cannabis flowering and for flowering, something with red/orange and 2700K is suggested. 6500K has more blue and is better for vegetative growth. Hope this helps, Organoman.

Long ago I grew with large CFL's (65 watt). I would use a daylight bulb for veg and then would turn on an additional "warm" light for flower so the plant could get more light and more of the red end of the spectrum. I was doing limes, lemons but it kept them happy and producing a lot of fruit/flower.

Light and water Thank you guys! for watering, I don't know how she can react giving her more than 250ml. I can try but I don't want to drown her. For the light, unfortunately direct sun light arrives from 11.30/12 am to 7pm. Before it is covered by other buildings behind my terrace.

WHAT IS CAUSING MY LEAVES TO CURL? (Day 64 pictures)The leaves at the top of the plant seem to be curling up. My first guess is that there is too much light. I recently moved my light down to 12 inches above the canopy. The PPFD should still be under 1,000, but I don't know what else could be causing it. Please help. 🙏

New Light? Find a way to raise light? More Fans? Combination? (Light: 44" above ground level | Tent Height: 63" Day avg: 78.6f) Should i worry?What do you guys recommend as far as lighting for this tent? I have a 300w led light but at the height it's currently at it is producing a large amount of heat with my exhaust and two oscillating fans? I also have other plants in with my seedling so could the humidity cause it?
