ok so im thinking of maybe growing 3 lowryder plants in a rubber maid with 15 (23 watt 1600 lumen) bulbs.. i plan to get 8 light sockets with "Y" adapters to put two 23 watters in each socket = 46 watts and 3200 lumens.. no bad? i bought a 40 watt CFL and qucikly did the math and realize that its more efficient using 2 23 watters in stead of using 40 watters with 2400 lumes (800 lumens more for 6 watts?) seems good to me.. plus 1 40 watt bulb is 10$ at lowes where as a pack of 6 23 watts is 10$ :hubba: 3 times cheaper.. and i know people are gunna say just use a HID well i can't because its in a very small area and CFLS are MUCH easier to cool than a big HPS with a ballast and huge reflector... im thinking of just painting the inside white and just drilling 8 holes for lights all around the rubbermaid like swiss cheese almost and just pop light sockets through all of them? sound logical? Any help is GREAT
thanks,
Pete
