Hello this is my setup i have made, rough as hell, feed back required.
What you are seeing here is an idea that came to me from basic growing knowledge and my own ingenuity.
I have bought a very tall bin that is obviously reflective, good for lighting etc.
Here is the original light i chose with 2700k (which I found out later wasn't enough) It is philips new energy saving 3 led beast of a light.
As you can see i have put it in the middle of the lid.
Okay so looking down into the dome of never ending light source you can see i have a reflective bottom, my see through pot (so even more light can pass through) and the reflective cone that came with the lamp i destroyed to make the lights cable, made a promising tunnel of light for the pot.
Now, i am engaging in bubbling hydroponic systems, something else i want to learn about and even test out.
As you can see i have my bucket, spray bottle later for the leaves, net pot, air cable, air pump, air stone, and clay balls oh and the wool square.
After posting previously someone thankfully told me i needed more light so i bought another lamp that soon was to meet my hammer and also a fluorescent bulb with a whopping 4100k to add on the 2700k = 6800k lighting, not bad?
Okay so busted the lamp to achieve the second cable for second light, decided to make a hole just next to the other but use this new brighter light for adjusting while the plants are growing. Up and Down etc
Okay so i decided to melt a hole in the bucket as im not a tool man and only had my solder iron, plus i find it better.
Installed tubing, air stone, pump and net pot fitted perfect. bubbling as you can see, but im not sure how much bubbling i need>? dosnt seem to 'Splash' up on the clay balls.
Okay so in my mind this was the final scenario but not long after i decided to take the bucket out for a bigger better design. and keep the tunnel of light for seedlings to grow up through. Not bad eh?
As of now i am the happy father of two beautiful baby girls (hopefully) HAHA
Yes as i was packing up, also thinking when are they gonna hatch or will they since only being under the 2700k bulb for 48 hrs, BOOM they are breaking through so there you go people, a newbie with a bit of ingenuity for the love of growing the plant.
Any comments would be awesome, again im going to build a bigger box but this is my own little.. idea?
