Hey dudes, perhaps somoene could point me in the right direction :?

Doing a CFL grow for my first try, been vegging a couple of healthy plants for 3 months with 2 x 125w 6500k. Been reducing the hours of light gradually, on 13/11 at this moment and have been lsting and cutting leaves away that are shielding budsites.

I will switch to 12/12 when i have some more lightning sorted as I read that with cfls the most efficient use of wattage is a number of 20-30w 2700w as close as possible to the budding areas all around the plant.

Going to pick the up the bulbs tomorrow but i have no idea how Im going to wire them up?

***I presume i will be able to buy appropriate sockets for the bulbs but beyond that i don't know what to do. Is it as simple as buying the sockets, buying some cable and some plugs and hooking them up? Is there a post somewhere or a webpage that could help me wire up the bulbs?***

This kind of thing would be ideal for me but again need a uk seller with a uk plug.

***I know the Y-splitters would be ideal in this situation but i have not been able to find any sellers not in the usa - anyone know if there are any sellers in the uk?***

Thanks for any help or tips :D

Ive been trying to find plugin e27 sockets all day!

Problem is being in the uk - i cant find any such plugin sockets that come with uk plug fittings

All the e27 ones i can find are the 2 prong type that ship from either USA or China, which would mean putting things off for another couple of weeks at the very least - plus having to spend more money on socket converters for each light!

I think i have to bite the bullet and make the type of fittings i need myself and id love some advice from anyone who has done it before or is good with this kind of thing

If anyone knows where to get the Y splitters and the uk plug sockets in the uk that would be great too!
