beautiful!!
just make sure to keep the flourescent tube bulbs NO MORE than 6cm away from the foliage...any further away than that and they start to lose their effect causing the plants to stretch immensely, toward the light source.
in conclusion:
-Flourescents stay cool, but keep fans going on your indoor plants at all times to keep foliage rustled and prevent burning if the leaves touch the bulbs in case they are hot.
-Keep the bulbs VERY VERY close to the plant's tops...again, 6cm is about as far as you want to go...flours. dont penetrate the plant's canopy very deep at all, so use some supplemental light on the sides to promote lateral branching, early on...
once put outside, those small side laterals with a head start will become main-tops of their own, or at least yield something significant in the end..
if your friend has the time, veg your mostly indica/indicas at least 1 month indoor, under a photoperiod of 24/0 then top at the 4th to 5th node, veg indoor 2-4 more weeks, or until the now expose lower arms have a chance to catch up and form an even canopy, then xplant outdoor to 12/12 (or 13/11, 11/13, 14/10, dont matter) for the remainder of their short-sweet lives..
be well siamjim and best wishes to you and yours
grow on
