haha yeah get rid of that shelf how much space are you going to have left? because once you put it into flowering its going to get alot bigger. and rememeber your going to need about 10 inches between the light and your plant you might need to take that out of that box you have.

that wont work with an hps if your talking about what i think you are. hps doesnt just plug into the typical wall socket.the timers ur talking about will fail you even if you could somehow get them hooked up to the hps.

A simple formula for figuring out the cost of your light or anything else

1.Multiply watts by hours used
2.divide by 1000
3.Multiply by KW cost

So for example a 250w hps light used 12 hrs. per day
250
x 12
--------
3000
divided by 1000=3kw

3kw
x 12 cents (guess. Just look at your bill)
--------
.36 cents
x 30 days
-----------
$10.80 per month average.
Hope this helps ya.

haha yeah he should but only if he can do it he was just going to get a 100 watt so even a 250watt would be a big jump. So yeah dude if you can get a 400 then do it up lol.
