I've been trying to find a pic of what your room looks like, not just the plants.

Nice room bro.
Where were you thinking to add?
Do you have a fixture under the shelf or something?
I can't tell for sure, but it looks like your shelf is stationary, and you raise/ lower the fixture, then on the right, you raise and lower the fixture using string/ rope?
It looks like it's difficult to reach the back one when it's set near the height of the shelf.

thanks man.. me and my dad built it with the help of my little one.. lol
i was gonna add it under neither the shelf for more light. I raise and lower by the pully straps yes.. its not to bad right now, the light pictured on the right is all the way to the top so i can get in there and work with the babys for now, but once i transplant in bigger pots then the light will be lower as in picture.. i will have to raise and lower it when i need to get in there.. no biggie

If you add it under the shelf, (I'm assuming you mean more light for the right side) then in order for it to be effective, wouldn't you want to have it the same height as the right light?thanks man.. me and my dad built it with the help of my little one.. lol

Is that gonna cause issues with your seedlings on the shelf and their light?
Or am I not understanding your idea correctly?
I think that would be cool to have another down there, but I'm kinda confooooozed.

I think that'll be better than putting CFL's there dude.eh fuck it... ill just order it
That way everything is even, and you won't have to rotate your plants as often like you would with diff. light on one side.

Well, especially for that price, you are going to have more illumination and a lot less work than the same money spent on CFL's and fixtures.Yea... I just placed my order be here by next Friday or sooner
Plus, it'll look better.

I was looking at that, and if you want a DIY project...........yeah.. think i wanted to do cfls just to have an excuse for a DIY project and im all for them
I got an idea for ya to kick around that might do both your wants.
What if you made a sliding divider in the middle, (like the double sliding closet doors), line both sides to make them like your walls, put your coming fixture under like you plan, and put the new bubbler under there?

my original plan was to build this divide it into 2 and one veg one flower.. then i was like pssshhh forget that shit... ima use the whole thing veg for my more area and plants.. but dividing it in my opionion would just be to small for me to work with cause then i wont have the big area for 4-6 plants in 3gal pots.. .... its 48x48.. but the inside measures around 47 1/2 cause its build on the inside of the 48x48.. and its all bolted and wing nuted so its easy to take down.. takes 5 minutes to put up and 5 minutes to take down...
