I recently changed around my grow area, my previous setup was in a fish tank with some 4 ft flourescents, and a small fan blowing, I was having issues with stretching and a very weak stem. Just today I completely re-did it, and I now have a small intake fan in a 2'2" x 1'2" x 2' box, the sides are lined with aluminum foil, and I am using 3 26w cfl's about 2" above the plant. I think this is a better setup and hopefully will be better for the plant, Any opinions/suggestions would be appreciated.

I know that foil is bad but I dont really have much else to work with, so Ive just been keeping a close eye on it and everythings green on the plant. Would it be better to tear down the foil and have just cardboard walls instead of the foil? And, yeah I only have this one plant and Id like to be able to flower with the cfl's if its possible, but if its going to turn out bad Ill look into new lighting. What do you think should I get new lights?

Alright, thank you, I got rid of all the foil. The new light will have to wait for another day but ill get it eventually, I have time. And I didnt wanna post a whole new thread for this, but now my plant is drooping a lot at the top where the new leaves are coming in, does anyone know how I can fix it, or is it ok?

i'd give it a day it should perk back up, the space looks so much better, maybe you could paint the cardboard white? Other then that lookin good :)

Yeah, I might see what else I can do with my grow area, but as long as the plant is gonna be alright its all good, and thanks for all the advice man, I appreciate it.
