My setup

Might be a good idea to grow an indica dominant strain. It'll stay shorter than a sativa dominant one. Also might want to consider only putting one plant in there. I can see you running out of space by the time you're done.

haha, that is exactly what im going to do, im an indica only type of guy and im only doing one maybe two plants max.

I'm in love!!!!!!! Look at all the lights, you have about the same space as mine BUT look at all the shiny lights.
Giving me a goal now, can you show a pic of the wiring, close up on one light and a couple interesting connections. I work better with visual aids and I will need some aid in visualizing this one

sure, it was alot of work but i can definatly help you out. I love building stuff. This thing is so bright, Can you have too much light? the heat isnt a big deal, i put my exhaust on with all the lights 1350 watts and it got to 90 and stayed there. now i wont be running all the lights at the same time but its good to test things to see what it all will do. Does anyone know what is too hot for plants? The lights are rated higher than 100 so i think im good.

just added remote monitoring with streaming webcam... Out is the temp inside box, in is the temp in the room. so far it stays at 79-80 degrees with 5-85watt cfls on.

I started a few bagseeds and growing them 12/12 from seed because im leaving june 1. Started a journal but nobody comments.

Yeah so this box really is working beyond my expectations. I know running 900+ watts of CFL is crazy but its working well. If my electric bill comes back to be pretty high im going to definaly switch to HPS system and build a better box this winter. But I have to say, big buds are possible with CFL and high wattage.
