hello people..dirt is dead..so in the meantime while i wait for my next set of beans to sprout (i sprouted 10 this time Mutt..) i made a grow box..it sits about 2 1/2 feet tall, 2 fee wide and about 1 foot deep..i found this treasure in the storage room..as you can see i stuck some fluoro's in 'em (went to the hardware store and bought 4 of 'em..thas all they had left..)..the only thing is, it's only pushing 1300 lumens at 15 watts a piece..i hope that's enough just to veg 'em a bit 'til i can stick 'em in the closet with the shop light..and yes i know, MH and HPS is the way to go, but i'm budgeting..plus i don't want to burn my house down..tell me what you think..how can i improve it? it's gonna sit in the grow closet room with the ceiling fan so ventilation shouldn't be a problem..plus i figure with such a small grow space, the box should take full advantage of all the lumens and it has moveable shelves so i can keep 'em as near or as far away from the light i want..plus if anything, i still got those compact fluoro desk lamps..but i think they give off too much heat..
