I started my grow with 1 35w CFL for 10 sprouts. They quickly expanded. 2 weeks later I purchased the 3M 100wLED “white” floodlight. the “white” is important because it indicated that the bulb carried full spectrum. and true to packaging it does. This light is phenomenal with very little heating and a true “blueish” hue. The area coverage is an issue because of the size of my closet {3 plants) but the results are encouraging. so much that I went to get another 100wLED FLOODLIGHT. I didn’t go in quite as clear headed as i had before & I ended up purchasing the Sylvania 100wLED. It too had the “White” light listing. however the bulb throws out a more yellow orange red hue. AT first i was a little dissatisfied however upon further review it is Ideal for the flowering stage. Buds are progressing to a size 1/4’ wider than blue hue. The smaller 65wLED white home bulb is a joke. compensating for that with spiral 35w CFL which At best is just making 3rd plant hang in there. i will post pics after i mount 3rd 100wLED floodlight to show the results. my plants are going into 3rd week of Flower. The blue hue buds are much more tight with the blue hue but the red hue is making the bud grow or expand better with pistols showing, but not the nuggety tightness and actual formation completion of buds at bottom. I intend to buy 2 more Flood bulbs to give a much better area coverage. if my tent were taller or light were mounted to ceiling then these 3 lights probably will be boss at growing small.

Frankenstein: dimensions 31"x 20.75" x 61"
right now wattage is only 330w. To celebrate the upcoming holiday im adding 2 more floods and a 20w cfl in rear to even me out at 420. thus My Creation’s name is 420Frankenstein. She’s a monster. i hope with the effort im making at least 180-260g comes out of this. the 3M is running circles around the sylvania as far as vegetative growth, but the Sylvania is making the plant “fatter” Both bulbs ARE decent however i am strongly favoring the 3M will send Pics to compare.
nutrients:Black Gold -Organic Dynamite-8-5-5 veg. solid fertilizer pellets dissolvable-{A}
Bonide- Bloom Builder-4-14-8 flower liquid concentrate spray, dilute 2 tblspn to 1 pint H2O -{?}
well water no ph balancing {A+}
substrate- Miracle Grow Light.- stuff makes root go crazy big fast! and very airy {A+}
i prefer tight dense stinky buds. i favor 3M. happy growing & good luck painting your thumb.
