Adding this suggestion only since its sturdy/removable for those that need such things. White backed hardboard - smooth matte white finish, easy to clean.

This part is important. You're confusing lumen and lux. A lumen refers to the output of light, but doesn't take into account the area over which it is spread. Lux on the other hand takes into account area as well. Lux is the number of lumens per square meter. A great big bulb emits light in...

I don't know where you read that lumens aren't cumulative, but that is not true. Assuming the lights are shining on the same spot, then two 500 lumen lights would be theoretically equivalent to a single 1000 lumen light. I think it would be fair to say that the majority of CFLs overstate...

As far as CFLs go, anything above 60lumen/watt is great. Can't comment on the brand though. One thing I would comment on, however, is ventilation. Scrubber will have a big impact on the cfm going through those 120mm fans. CFLs are relatively cool, but certainly not heat free. Even with two...

Oh now they are puuurdy! LST and supercropping both look to be pretty good solutions. I think between all the suggestions, we may have a solution! By using LST/supercropping the timing of flowering and veging should be good too for switching them around. Righty, thinks it's time I placed an...

Some nice short autos were actually one of the first things I looked into (starting, as you say, with lowryder and the many crosses). What puts me off, however, is the inability to clone. Continuous seed purchasing isn't something my wallet would enjoy :-(. With something like Bubblelicious...

Like so many, I'm afraid my first post is a question. We all start somewhere I suppose ;). I've pretty much finished building an indoor CFL grow. Again, like so many, I have very limited space: 2 shelves, approx (W)45cmx(L)55cmx(H)50cm veg/(H)75cm flower (thats about 1'6" x 1'9" x 1'8" /...
