Like I said in my other thread...I'm experimenting with bagseeds. So far I have my plants at like 2-3 inches only. The lighting is regular house lights...I just put the plants real close to em..like few inches away..lol. Nothing to special, just going cheap on equipment till I get the hang of it. I know people have recommended CFLs.
They are suppose to use less electricity?..but they shine brighter? how does that work out...I don't really get it that it saves $ and is better for plants. How is it brighter/better if it uses less electricity?
So far I'm thinking of making a grow box... Cutting a square hole on top of a good size box and placing my light unit there. I have a 5 gallon fish tank light which uses those small tube bulbs...are there any good tube light or CFL for those?...I can't find any. (if anyone can, please recommend exactly what to look for. I was walking around the light bulb section of Walmart the other day for literally 20 minutes being clueless)
Or should I get one of these... and put a CFL bulb in?

Well be mounted, using a certain cheap technique
Again they are bagseeds..so I know cheap equipment wont give me potent ass bud. But atleast get a 'good' high off of. I just want a light to help bloom those beauties. Any suggestions?..trying to go cheap....reeeaaal cheap. (still experimenting and learning)
Thanks
