    CFL Grow Box (Opinons/First Grow & Questions)

    Yeah I've never heard of that either, but it makes sense. Lot's of good information/friendly members on this forum, I'm glad I decided to register! I understand that CFL lights only are efficient at 2-6 inches from the plant, but wouldn't 98% reflective material make the distance unimportant? No...

    CFL Grow Box (Opinons/First Grow & Questions)

    Thanks a lot for your reply! I was actually going to ask if the power consumption of the 12 cfls was practical. I called my local hydro shop and its around $350.00 for a 600 watt hps bulb compete setup, but it just didn't seem quite in my budget. How many plants do you suggest I grow in it...

    CFL Grow Box (Opinons/First Grow & Questions)

    Hey everyone I'm new to the scene, and growing! This is actually my first attempt. I just wanted to see everyone's opinion on my custom grow box. I had no need to make stealthy. There are 12 soft white 23 watt cfls generating about 19,200 lumes. (Over doing it?) (Do they need to be closer, or is...
