Hello cannabis cultivators, I'm looking to put two 3' 6500k t5 lights diagonally from each other buying four cost too damn much (one for each corner of the box) then I need help choosing a cheap led I can put on top of the box need one that the plant can be close too. Any help would be great here's a YouTube link to my box to help with the visualization help me get lighting in there trying to maximize the box for yield, cheers!

I saw the washington redskins last on southpark ..lol

this grow is too difficult to get at, with poor venting

I'd use 'all' the closet, sell the clothes ..

you need room

4 foot t5's(HOT5) are the best on a bank of 4

with a dedicated area for flowering under the standard 400w hps

for a continual or sequential grow

can't do that stick with cfl's until you got cash and space

to my blog on various members cfl arrays

good luck

Hey I'll deff check your link out and 2-80mm 52.4cfm/ea fan daisy chained to each other and the 4"rotating fan w/ variable speeds. back closet dry wall is cut exactly where fans are caulked in place to the box DIY active carbon filter, that's bad venting? Also budget and stealth is on the mind including electricity bill. led and CFL is where I want to be at , I was wondering if I bought a cheap China led that say a in realistically boosted 600w product that's really about 300w it won't be high powered cuz China that's why lol and I can keep the plant close to it like CFLs was hoping that's give bit of a mixed spectrum and bonus lumens and all the good I can think of on a budget. Also didn't really think on making it taller until I made the damn box but it'll do until I have a few grows under my belt and feel like moving up only want a one person personal supply until the next harvest is ready I have a lot more to say but I'm rambling and my mind moves faster than fingers and I lose thoughts

Use all that closet with ur venting thing sounds good, that China thing will only add to ur potential nightmare ..lol

perhaps you are being overcautious with this stealth thing ?? you decide

clothes often are moved to under bed plastic rubbermaids

or if a babe is involved get her one of those shop store clothes racks (with wheels)

they'll love it ....lol

now Im rambling lol
