ok so i posted my setup a few days ago and i didnt like it. so i went out and bought 4 more 23watt (100w equiv) daylight 5000k, which makes 8 23watt (100w equiv) daylight 5000k which equals 184 watts and 40,000k total for two plants. still i wasnt happy. today while i was working i was asking siri (iphone) where i can i find a hdyroponic store near me and she told me! it was 6.5 miles away. when i was done work i drove over there and picked up a sun system hood (shown below) and a feliz cfl 125watt 6500k bulb (also shown below). so i feel that a total of 305watts and 46,500k is perfect for me. i think the 125 watt pushes out 12,000lums so that makes a total of 24,800 lums. i think that is more then enough for two plants. when i reach the flowering stage i will swap out the big bulb for a 2700 and swap half of the smaller ones out for 2700 and i will leave 4 5000k in there for flowwering too.
here are some pics of the setup. as the plant grows taller i just move all the lights higher and higher, and yes they all move up. right now my plants are outside getting some free sun.
my next grow i will revamp the box and get real reflective material as appose to foil.
