    What mains timers are you using because mine keep failing..

    I am after a reliable mains timer as I keep buying ones off ebay/amazon and they are just complete junk.. they usually fail within about 3-7 days of usage...

    will this work?

    the 7.5V 400mA AC/DC supply should be fine.. just splice the wires.. Make sure you insulate the connections and solder them well.. However worst case scenario is just destroying the PSU anyway so its not too dangerous..Possible fire hazard though. 30CFM is sort of minimum what I would put in...

    Hey thanks for the reply.. I have 2 foot upwards space minus the space the lights take (I am growing the plants downwards.. they are balancing on books at the minute and I am removing them all the time as they just keep growing! The floor space is shy of 1foot square.. so not great.. about 0.7...

    I don't really think heat is much of an issue at the minute for me. I have 2 thermometers in at the minute and I have about 29-31 degrees at the lights but the one at the level of the plants stays between 23-28 degrees so should be the right temperature. I am going to do a big update tomorrow...

    Well what a difference a week makes.. It turns out my mistake was not putting in any nutes at all in my coco/perlite mix.. Apparently the plant should have everything it needs but mine seemingly didn't As soon as I put in some half strength nutes the plant just exploded. I am now watering it...

    No I didn't really follow any tutorial.. I just bought a load of different light fittings to see how it might be best to screw them in.. Then I noticed that the Ceramic holders had 2 screw holes in the bottom.. so I thought why not just screw them to a sheet of plastic.. and that's what I did...
