yeah, i suppose ill answer that one with what i know about it haha, well its just a shower rod, attached going across on the walls of the closet,and then chain, on two sides of it, going over it, i dont remember the correct measurements of the chains, Dac could tell you those, and its just some attachments, that unscrew and can move around the chain, i dont know the name of those either, and then we zip tied the power strips, and then hooked the screw attachment things to the ties, and the chain, and it was one zip tie on the front, and one on the back of the power strip thing. haha. and you can easily move the lights up or down as the plants grow :)

wasnt really a good way to explain it cause i dont remember the whole names of the items, but yeah.. Dac can clear it up. and JONN's idea is good too :-P
@JB What do you mean S hooks ?

@DLC How did you get the chain through the zip tie ? Is their like a little slot on the chains ?(like an earring)

How much does the chain cost

the chain didnt cost that much, only about.. what 15-20 bucks Dac? and then, we used, um its a little attachment that you can buy, that go on the chains, i have no idea what they are, but they are like links on a chain, but they can unscrew, and screw in, where you can move them and stuff, and we did one through the tie, and then did it through the chain you can probably explain the links to people at lowes and they should know what you mean :-P

HA! founnds themmss! haha. there they are :) those are what we used, just unscrewed one, and did it in the tie, and then through the chain, and then we move them up slowly as they grow, i think is how we did them. and or we just like doubled the chain, and kept moving the chain up and doubling it more..(i cant decide how we did it haha, drawing a blank how we did it.. damn it :-P but yeah. botho fthose ways, if not one of them thje way we did it, would work perfectly) :)

So when you unscrew the little screw thingy, is their a slot their ?

And how long shud the chain be ? I heard JB say 15 inches.

YOYOYO! Plaz! Whats up? Thanks for reading my fourm and commenting!

BUT! It would be very hard to explain the exact setup of the lights! SOO...
Ill take very detailed PICs with instructions for you tomorrow. Make it SO much easier to explain.

But basicly its CFLs inside of Y lightsocket splitters. Inside of prong sockets. That are pluged into a powerstrip that is ziptied onto chains that suspend it from a Shower Rod. : )

TRUST me. Way more simple than it sounds,lol!

Everything you can get at lowes for around 20-30$(excluding the lights)
Like I said though, Ill take more pics tomorrow for you. : )

Alright! Time for some Day #45 updates!

Ok, So plant #3 is budding up VERY well!
The other 3 are slowly but surely catching up.
They all have buds forming but at a early stage.
So plant #3 is drinking about 1 gallon of water every 2 days.
So upkeep is a job to keep up with, But I love how healthy they are compared to my soil grow.


Time for some PICs! Enjoy!bongsmilie

Oh, The last two pics are of Plant #3's buds.
Their starting to get frosty : )

(They come in a 3 pack at wallyworld for around 2$)
Hot Tap Water


Now! The Instructions.
STEP 1:Put 1 cup of sugar in each bottle.
STEP 2:Get tap water running as hot as possible and fill bottle half way up & Shake.
STEP 3:Pour half pack of the yeast in each bottle. Put Just a bit more water to fill up bottle 3/4 of the way full & Shake.
STEP 4:Put Under/Beside plants & SWIRL STIR (NOT SHAKE!!) Every 2-3 days.
