Since you are a DIY'er check out Mr. Burger Boss's inexpensive reflector. He made it as a CFL reflector but I was thinking of using it as a larger hood (with modifications). His original idea has endless possibilities.

Hey Lefty, very impressive 1st grow. and some nice flowering for the amount of available light.
One request, please start a grow journal so we can follow along.
Good luck & good grow.......BB

thanks man! yeah not too bad eh? i know i know..i would like to put something more substantial down there but theres a big issue with heat for me, a couple other variables as well..this is just what i have able to work with.

i had thot about doing that, but i really didnt want to go to the extra trouble if noone would really care unless my plants weighed 5 pounds and glowed slightly in the dark lol but i guess ghetto growers can get a few props here too! since im only a couple weeks from the big chop, my next grow will get some face time ^_^
