the entire operation is ran by 300 watts, its all CFL and red LED's.
5 - 2700k CFL
1 - 500 light, 50k lumen LED panel, red
4 - 3200k CFL
4- 19k lumen full spectrum 4' flourescant tubes
clone and veg setup:
6- 2700k CFLs
2- 3200k CFLs
Meet triceratops!

is 3,2k rly needed?
i mean, 2700k for bloom and 6400k for veg
looking good though

its hard to find cfls in a 64k, so "the fella" added some 32ks for the extra lumens and to add in more of a spectrum. then "the fella" supplemented the flower cycle with the red led panel. "the fella" is still perfecting his low energy high yield process
and nope jess, its not drugs. its medicine

i'd rather put in a led for the veg since they doesnt have so good penetration etc. they work awesome for veg but not in bloom, fine they work but personally i'd (if its possible) put in a hps
not sure how led vs red cfl is in bloom though
still looking good nonetheless _____________________

the goal is to use as little power as possible while providing the most output. so the cfls are nice, because a 15 watt cfl = 60 watts equivalent. the goal is to eventually swap out the 300 watts of cfls and flourescents for a single 300 watt hps for flowering and eventually rebuild back up to the 300 watt cfls for veg. should be sweet but its a slow process.
its all soil atm, but "the fella" is working on an aeroponic system
the 300 watts being used atm's equivalent is like 1000watts. "the fella's" veg cycle is actually rather short due to height constraints. it only takes about a month to go from clone to ready to bloom. granted the plants only produce about an ounce to 2 ounces per plant whereas the outdoor yield for the specimen is about 5 ounces to 8 ounces.
hehe "the fella" plans to plant 250 clones in the wild all across his/her area. will lose alot to poaching and animals and probably law enforcement but, the more they kill the more that will be planted
i love "the fella"
edit:
"the fella" is working on a neato little plan called micro budding. he has never read about it but thinks its doable, Just get to the 7th node before the plants reach 1 foot tall. then blast them into bloom without letting them grow much taller. should produce buds in about 1 month all together. 1-2 weeks veg. 1-4 weeks flower. they will be small little popcorn buds but easier to do a sea of green approach when everything is 1 foot tall XD. instead of doing 4-6 plants at a time should be able to do 50-70 micro buds. atleast if the fella's math is correct
EDIT:
http://www.amazon.com/30-Watt-Spectrum-Warranty-FE-IIS-30W-64K/dp/B003HNIZAE
this may be what is missing XD. just need to tell "the fella" to find them around his area instead of ordering online XD

writen like a chem essay
those bulbs were cheap for sure, 38w 64k is like 7€ in my local store and i recently found some 30w 27k for 3€
what kind of strain is it?
and i dont think cfls can count as Watt*4 since it doesnt produce no way near the lumen that a hps produces, at least for flower
and that micro budding method sounds cool
is it supposed to get a lot of harvests in a short time?
are there more pics? i'd like to see the whole setup if possible

ya definitely
its afghan schwazi that has been diluted with assorted varieties as they came around. it started as pure afghan schwazi, then it was mixed with a rando strain of skunk, then mixed with a strain of cotton candy, and "the fella" is unsure weather the traits from the diesel actually took
Well you dont really count the wattage. what you really count is the lumens the light produces. each plant needs a minimum of 19k lumens to reach maturity and then 25k minimum for flowering. "the fellas" flowering chamber is currently producing around 150-175k lumens
the fella just harvested a couple and moved some younger ones into flowering. So i'll see if i can get some pics for ya  _____________________
