Question
I am
using my spare bedroom for my grow space and I will have to do veg
growth and flowering in the same room to keep the strain going. I
have a closet with very little space and don't know what type of
light would work for clones and would the clone light hurt the
plants when they are budding.
Answer
I would
use fluorescent lights in the closet, they do not give off much heat
and can fit into small spaces. With some show and grow bulbs they
would produce the light spectrum needed by the clones.
Question
Tell me,
under a 400W M.H. for 24 hrs/day, and all other conditions
are ideal, will this amount of light improve the plants and make
them grow faster than using normal lighting times.
Answer
Using a light for 24 hrs. a day is a waste of
electricity. Plants can only photosynthesize for 18 hrs after that
the plant will shut itself down and it makes it harder to switch to
the budding cycle as you will not now when the plants are actually
waking up and going to sleep.
