sweet, I just sent in an order... this should be better than messing with a bunch of cfl's

I here people say that they're ordering extra lights, are the lights people are ordering listed as the optional items? 6 bucks seems cheap for a 150w hps light

I want to build a CFL cabinet to grow in I want to stick to the setups in buds for less any ideas on how to construct a simple cabinet with hinges? what size would allow me to yield 8oz also? 3x3x4?

wouldn't i be able to flower with them aswell?

can the 42watt lights mentioned in buds for less be purchased from homedepot? are those the nvision lights? I see 42 watt cfl's, but i'm not sure if they put out the same ammount of lumen's as in the book.

isn't the 150w hps from HTG decent? I can't use a 400w hps cause ventillation will be an issue. Perhaps it wont be...

I only have 175$ and I want to set up a small cabinet grow. Should I buy the 20$ hps and try making my own lamp or should i get the one from HTG? One of the only problems i can think (with making the ballast) is how I would house the ballast components and how I would make a reflector that...

if a 400w hps is optimal for 4ft.wx4ft.h then is a 150w hps optimal for 1.5ftw x 1.5ft h? ORIGINAL QUESTION: how can the 20$ 150w hps econolight be inserted into a DIY cab What are the optimal dimensions for a D.I.Y constructed cab for running the econolight 150w hps

how will I construct a hood for that light once its modified?

I was actually wanting to know if this would be possilbe by utilizing a 150w hps? since they don't need expensive air extractors for cooling. In pursuit of this further, i'm wondering how hoods can be connected to the 20$ hps vapor sealed light? (after its been moded to remote ballast)

is theres a budget grow i could do for 175$? w/th an HPS light or a powerful CFL? What do I need to yield me just 4 oz ever 4 months?

IS there a way to vent the heat from a grow cab with a 400w hps/carbon scrubber in it? without using expensive extractors?

If I constructed a cab and ran a 400w hps, would air extractors need to be used? would CPU fans be sufficient to keep the grow cab cool? if not, then what about a 250w HPS? I am just sort of confused on how people would use the 100$ 400w hps ballast setup from inside sun if it is not...

cfls confuse me because I had one that says it was 100watts but i'm not sure if that just means its a 23 watt cfl thats a bright as a 100w? i don't know if the ones at normal stores are the ones people use for horticulture

do they grow faster under 24/0? I want to use a 400w hps but i have no money, which cfl's do people use to grow? Just the claimed 100w nvision type you can find at hdepot?

so could i veg on 18/6 for like 4 weeks and then flower for like 8 weeks?

how long should it take? I've heard 6months and I've heard 2months 6months is discouraging...

what would an expert do inside of a 4x4x7 box when utilizing a 400w hps? and the novice? it seems it should be possible to shoot for the moon within these given parameters... Granted I don't want to take things out of proportion and jump into a costly 1000W hps/hydro setup my first time

I guess what I'm meaning to ask is what setup should I have inside a 4x4x7 box to optimize yields? Is it recommended to scrog or let plants grow vertically (if they have enough room) I'm guessing they're about the same. However, I am unsure as I do no know if the stressing (from scrogging)...

So firstly, I have never grown and I've only done research on the topic for the last year or so. From what i've read a 400w hps will be about right for my needs if its running in an optimal setup 1.would constructing a 4x4x7 grow cab be the best option for me if I plan on using a 400w hps...
