First grow. This setup was going to be used to veg, but my first grow will be a harvest with manual pollination (if i get a male..hopefully I will, damn seed prices)

So, I know the benefits of supplemental side lighting when it comes to CFL, but I decided on a one level hanging fixture.

Open to comments/suggestions/criticism :)

Light Fixture:


1 week old:


(runt)


12 Days Old + new cabinet and 'reflector':

(runt)




More to come...



Some more specs:

foxfarm OF soil
FF nutes (grow big & tiger)
watering every other day, till run off
205w of CFL

Oh, my bad..I forgot the new cabinet picture.....


PS: forgot ventilation specs, PSU fan at the top, passive intake vent at the bottom, stays pretty cool, even with the new 'reflectors'

Thanks man, it wasn't too hard, only took about 30 minutes of work and $20 not including the bulbs.
$5 wood, $8 for all outlets, $6 for adapters
