Wow, I just typed my whole thing out and it cleared itself, fantastic. Here we go again.
My supplies:
1x 100w CFL 5500k on clamp shop light
2x 75w 6500k CFL
2x 100w 2700l CFL
4x 45w Full Spectrum CFL
2x Lasko 3speed fan
1x $6 Target Desk Fan
Fox Farms Oceans pottinig soil (thats blue bag)
Fox Farms Happy Frog (just came in)
First timer, looking for insight on growing, ready to learn as much as I can. I do not know a lot, but maybe enough to start. My first grow was looking to be a joke so I figure I can give it another whirl with more stuff. I acquired some seeds in a decent smoke and figure I would try and start them, and well, they started. They sprouted, and im on day 10 for one of my plants. I also have 3 seeds I am hoping to get going, some indian haze i believe it is. Pretty enthused.
Anyhow, what I have now is really simple. I have my 100w and the 2 65w cfl's on 24/0 over my plant(s). My desk fan is blowing air directly on to them, in attempts to keep a nice healthy stalk. I also have a 2nd fan moving air out when the closet door is open, and circulating more air when it is shut. Generally we are sitting between 77-82 degrees with a humidity ~20 (I'm not sure how I should feel about that...). The plants/sprouts are in the FFO potting soil, so far so good it seems..
As far as the box goes, I found a chest of drawers out in the middle of the desert, all beat to shit and figured I would fix it up for some use. I didn't see this coming into play, but I am pretty excited for it. I knocked out the drawers, the frame inside, sanded the whole thing down, stained it, and it looks so much better. I have cut three holes in the back along the top, for the wires of 3 seperate power strips i will have attached to the top of the box. Each will be holding 2, maybe 3 bulbs a piece for more efficient lighting. When I get my board for the floor of it (should be going after this post), I will have my 4' shop light seated in the back, again providing more light. After I install the floor piece, I will attach an emergency blanket, and will apply another blanket to both sides. I have daylight bulbs, plant and aquarium and another as well, i believe kitchen and bath bulbs. I still need to cut some holes for the ventilation to move air in and out, as well as put on the front door. I am very excited for this free piece. Should serve well.
I would really like some advice on how I should set up all the bulbs in the box.
Feedback? Suggestions? Anything?
(I hope this makes sense...)
