    I think I'm done with chemicals...goin organic!

    Grow Room Ideas Anybody?

    That's a really nice setup you got there. I would definitely get a HID setup in there. Metal Halide 400 watt to veg, and then 400 watt HPS for flowering. I notice your plants are stretching due to the cfl bulbs not being close enough. Also get a oscillating fan in there to blow directly on...
