  • Imagin the light bill gosh #LOL

  • ITS A JOINT

  • @SgtGarand ah ok thanks ill keep that in mind, i have a desk lamp and i could get a compact florescent light for it and just keep it over my VFT for so many hours a day...would that work ?

  • @masterquadbiker Wow, it's been a while since I had posted that. But I have three plants now, one of them is the original plant I started with. I use an aquarium fluorescent bulb. And like i said two years ago...use the timer to simulate day/night cycle...this includes daylight savings time when the days get shorter. Once they start getting less daylight, it should get them ready for dormancy. And in November I put them in a ziplock bag, seal it, and put them in the bottom of the fridge

  • @SgtGarand im thinking about using artificial light....how do you make it go into dormacy??

  • chlorine and other strong minerals could kill vft easily

  • can u use drinking water to water it?

  • @dimebagshreds2000 can i use a day light lamp

  • @Bogmire11 yes hibernation is nessecary
