good job buddy, your on the team, well im on the 400 watt team but were in the same league,lol...i like to see a fellow californian makin it happen...if i had one suggestion it would be to reflect the lights down...build a reflector of some sort, make one, sumthin...heres mine i made when i was tryna root some clones before i got my MH bulb...try it out.......i got a turkey cooking aluminum pan from the 99cent store....then u go to home depot or a local hardware store and buy like 3 or 5 or 7 "Y" splitters...poke a small hole in the middle of the turkey cooking thingy...push the first y splitter through so the male socket end is protruding from what would be the bottom of the pan...then u hot glue gun it in place...then so on and so forth on the bottom, y splitter after y splitter, as long as they are screwed in the same and look symetrical the weight will be evenly distributed and it will sit level when hanging....View attachment 1535126View attachment 1535129View attachment 1535131
good idea homie. im diggin it. i added the reflectors that come with the lights and moved things around to get more light under the plant and added tin foil to the sides of my closet. deff made a difference. but i see i need a big one for the top. i like your idea im going to make one similar to that with these pieces of metal from home depot around the top light fixture. after this grow im going to get like a 250w hps for flowering and use the cfls in my veg box so i can have a harvest every month or so.

only 300 actual watts. got a bunch of 100s and 60s. the top and middle are doing good and looking almost done, but on the very bottom there are still new bud sites appearing and only have a few while hairs that just appeared over night. i moved a few lights down on the bottom of the plant where the new budsites are. i need to get them to grow faster i dont wanna waste the under developed bud when the top half of the plant is finished. and yeah i got a little nute burn, its all good. I think its going good for my first indoor grow.

great grow man im barely on veg week 3 hopefully mine look as good as yours..btw i wouldn't use tin foil for your box it creates hot spots on your plant and white poster board will reflect more light than the foil.
