[ChiefsitandChief]

Nice setup man, make sure to take care of them like a lady, and that degree of curling you have I would not worry about.

Are your bulbs just screwed into a vanity light?

 

[savage5]

That's probably what it is got it at the thrift store bought a lamp cord to power it. Then sum spliters..y

 

[WeekendToker]

I was looking for a vanity light fixture myself, but i wasn't sure how to power it. I ended up getting an extension cord/surge protector with 6 sockets and i have 6 CFL's attached.

for real thats looking liek a real gro br0 u probably dont need the bigass fan for now

 

[savage5]

Looking real nice, especially the first one.


Has heat been a problem? Are you under the stairs or in the attic? or...

Are your reflectors the ones for car windows? kinda look like that. If so those and emergancy blankets reflect a lot of the heat energy of the light but less of the light usable by the plants than some of the other choices. I would still say it's better than nothing but if heat was an issue i might do a test where I took them out for a day or two to see if there was a difference. Just a thought...

thanks silver.yes heat has been a problem actually still is and lol yea its a window visor im gona have to try that experiment and i hope thats wat it is. im running 3 fans rite now a dual fan for intake and and small 6in for circulation. im in kinda like a under the stairs its in my laundry room has a lil storage space on to the water heater if it had a door it would b like a cabinet...the walls are white do you think that would b fine and just take the "Mylar" out????

 

[silverserf]

All i did was paint the walls white...still have one to paint actually. Flat white works best.

Is the water heater adding heat?

If it was a gas water heater it would be awsome if you could use some of the co2 from the exhaust....but i seriously would NOT fuck with my water heater venting. It's a good idea on one hand but SO bad on the other.

[savage5]

lol yea I wouldn't want to mess with it..idk if its adding heat cause its n a wood cabnet basically I'll put the thermometer down there and c. This weekend I will take the sun visor out and maybe paint it but they did paint it b4 I moved in..can humidity b a factor?? Thermometer says it dry if so how do I fix it...thanx silver

That's probably what it is got it at the thrift store bought a lamp cord to power it. Then sum spliters..y

You can take a Y splitter and plug it into the socket, then place 2 more Y's one in each of the first Y and you will have four. I just switched my lights like that today.

Looking good, looks like they are starting to grow now. My little seedlings were looking pretty sad for almost 3 weeks, but once they started to grow the improvement was dramatic.

Try using a bannana peeling on the soil, apparently they give of gasses with hormones to promote a female plant instead of male.
