first things come to my mind:
- nutrients (veg + bloom)
- ph tester for your soil
- thermometer + igrometer
- odour control of some kind
- a warm (2700k) CFL bulbs set for flower if those you have are blue (6500k), or the other way around
- strings to LST (low stress training - shall google be your friend if you're not familiar) your plants since your grow space is limited

c ya mate :)

Hey bk. It looks a bit warm and a bit bright for such young plants, they also seem to like high humidity levels at that age so maybe think about raising the lights an inch or 2 and putting a cup of water in there just to help them along.

the plants seem to be exploding with growth from the small amount of nutes and the fan... and i switched out 3 of the bulbs with 6000k lights.... but the is a slight problem.... the temp in my case seems to get pretty hot at the peak of "daytime" i neeed advice on how to get them lower... i know i need an intake fan plan on getting that on payday... and i need to find a drill so i can mount the red fan somewhere on the sides....will get the photos up later

looks like a pretty nice starter set up! Have you got some other lighted location to put them when they outgrow that little computer case?

If it gets hot at the peak of daytime then use that as lights out time if you can. You don't need to deal with it at all then.
I run 12/12 from 9pm to 9am winter and 10pm to 10am summer. Works for me.
