Fruiting setup
    #26615674 - 04/20/20 03:30 PM (3 years, 9 months ago)

Hey guys,
I wanted to consult with you to see if the attached pic of my fruiting setup for fruiting seems fine and sustainable in the long run.

I'm using bods fruiting in jar method, and a 13w/60w equivalent 5000k CFL about 6 inches away from the jars.

My main concerns are:
Is the lighting enough?

This is in a cabinet in my garage- in SE Texas- where it gets hot af in the summer. Will this not work so well for me when the outside temps are 90+F? The garage is not climate controlled, the average temp in there right now seems around 78-80F

As a test, I'm leaving one colonized Jar indoors where I would normally fruit..

Typically you want the light from the top otherwise your fruits will start growin sideways towards that light. And yeah our summers might get a little too warm in the garage

And the lighting should be fine, its usually recommended to go with a 6500K but ive seen multiple people say the 5000 and other tc's say itll be alright

But if you can do it indoors why not continue with that? Just have it close to a window or somethin, also with the garage it shouldnt be too awful expensive to just section you a little area out(look for slightly older unused wood from places that build mobile homes)and get the cheapest smallest little ac of some sorts to keep your temps optimal, then you could even padlock your door as a just in case type deal.

Thanks for the insight. I wanted to free up some space indoors and also draw less attention from potential guests
