Easy light set up, HELP!

hey whats up guys. i kinda need....well i really do need help on setting up lights. im clueless on how to set up lights, like how to rig them. the lights i have for my grow now are desk lamps. GHETTTOOO! . HELP ME PLEASE FOR A LIGHT SET UP. by the way, im using cfls so no set ups for huge light systems. THANKS

right ur gonna need about 6-8 desk lamps per plant with the biggest cfl bulbs u can find, then u gonna need some were to put it all that is light proof and some kind of ventilation. Good luck mate>>>>

im kinda tryin to get away from using desk lamps lol. any other alternatives.

jus get some lamp fixture things duno what there called its easy, get 3 core cable get a lamp fixture the thing you screw the bulb into, wire it up earth goes to earth,, live goes to live,, neutral goes to neutral, then stick a plug at the other end plug it straight into the mains

Here is a cool way to make a cheap light fixture without any wiring. (And using CFLs)


Simply buy four of the attachments, and place them along the powerstrip. make sure your power strip is long enough to house the amount of lights youw ant, then plug in your CFLs. You should be able to get a simple power supply at Wal-Mart for around 4$, and the adapters will set you back about $1.50 Each. So for 10 dollars you have a fixture that fits 4 26Watt CFLs, and no wiring involved.

My pictures didn't come through, sorry about the double post.

what do you guys think about a aerogarden

desk lamps huh..... i bet mom doesnt know

In my opinion, you should invest in some florescent lights preferably ones that you can plug into the outlet, also the bulbs should be T8 or T12. there are plenty of different lengths to choose from just visit your nearby home depot, those lights are good for growing and the right amount of light can be good for budding your plants.

My suggestion would be to wait until you are not living with your parents.

I would say if you are considering using desk lamps, don't even think about aero! sounds like you need to go soil and see just what growing a plant is like...when you get your own place!

this is something that i came up with my self... its pretty easy to make and you can totally customizable....
