There in a 2.5x2 closet I have a T5 floro fixture above it that is 24"x18"
I leave it on all the time.

I try to give them the min. amount of nutes as I dont want them to grow.

use the biggest pots your comfourtable with, as rootspace is needed for longterm growth. Flouresents are great, I use t5s they're unreal!!! keep the foods low, but definately feed them. Just cut them down if you dont likem big. Use a clean razor of course. 18 hours is plenty of light. Go organic for fertilizer. Fish emulsions are great. and make sure your girls get plenty of fresh air. Good luck2u

When I had mothers, I had them under T5s (24/0) as I do with all of my grows. They were in a DWC system which made them grow very quickly. I tried to keep them on a 1-1-2 diet as well. Every week I was taking 40 - 50 cuttings, keeping the few that rooted quickest and discarded the rest.
