Hi RIU community just recently moved out to Norcal and am gonna be starting my first cfl grow indoors. I have a walk in closet in my room and above the closet is a closed cabinet space with 3 cabinet doors that open into the space.The best way to describe my grow space is like your average kitchen cabinet with the pull knobs where you would get your cereal or what not. Haha anyway i am on a mobile website and will upload pics when i get a chance in laptop. I have 3 , 40 watt cfl bulbs and right now i have a socket plug in for a bulb with a wall plug in on the other end. I also purchased a y adapter so i can run two bulbs in one socket. I'm hoping you guys can give me any tips or feedback on grow setups that i might need aswell as lighting arrangements because this is gonna be my first grow. I heard theyre better hanging horizontal as this gives more lumens. I believe each 40 watt bulb i have gives off 2900 lumens i only will be able to run 80watts for now with my 1 socket and y adapter so that would be 5800 lumens. Would that be fine for 1 plant to veg? Oh yes i also forgot to mention only wanna do 2 plants at the most. Once again any feed back or tips even constructive criticism will help me. Thanks guys!
