Hey,
I've started growing for the first time the other day, and I'm not sure if I'm doing everything right, so I thought I'd ask for a bit of advice.
I've got 4 plants in some cups I got from smoothies that I washed and sterilized, and 2 in pots that I got at the hardware store. All of this is in a 63L rubbermaid container, I didn't put any aluminum foil or white paint yet, but I'm planning on painting the inside with acryllic white paint.
I right now have 2x Cool White 4100K CFL's, attached by socket adapters to some extension cords running through the ceiling; I'm planning on going later today to buy some more socket adapters to hook up the other two CFL's like that, as well as two other Soft White 2700K CFL's so I can get some fuller spectrum on the plants.
My problem is that my thermometer reads 30°C, which is like 86° F, and I read that it should not go above something like 78°F. I don't know how big of a fan I should get, though!
Pics will be up soon
