Hey, all, as my name suggests I am pretty new at this. I have 6 plants that are about 3 months along that were given to me and I want to make sure i'm taking good care of them. What lighting would be best for them. I have them in a pretty good size closet. I was thinking of lining it with aluminum foil to let some light reflect off. What do you think, anyone? And what type of bulb would be best for these plants? Any help or advice at all would be great! Thanx all

From what I've hear CMH lights are the best. As for the foil, you would be better painting the sides flat white or using mylar to line the closet as these are both much better at reflecting than foil.

CMH is the ceramic metal halide I've seen a few people on here swear by them and their grows looked awesome. Haven't started a grow of my own yet though so I'm only repeating what I've heard others say.

CMH- Ceramic Metal Halide ...How big are these 6 plants already? Are they already budding? If you either HPS or CMH you'll need to vent the heat out of the closet...they get hot.
 
The plants are about 3 months along now. Rite now there really fluffy,, and I've got them outside until I can figure out the best air and lighting for them inside. And about the 'CMH' lights. I have no idea what those are lol. Could I get them at a hardware store or would I need to go to a headshop for those? Thanx for the help everyone.:)
