I've begun using the rubbermaid tub idea. Pictures to demonstrate below.

2 rubbermaid tubs
tinfoil tape
5" fan
2" pvc elbow pipe
6x 26watt cfls

Ooohhh shiny :stoned:

Since you will probably be transplanting relatively soon... it probably isn't worth cutting those cups down to create better airflow over the soil surface.

Although, since they are showing some decent stretch... I would recommend you put some stuff under the cups to lift them up to about 2-3 inches below the CFL's. It really helps :thumbsup:. I'm having great results with CFL's.

Keep it up... Have fun

Keep :jointsmile:

I'll be uploading a picture here shortly of the progress. I've topped the hell out of the one I'm keeping in the box at the moment. I waited til 3rd node on the first topping, and it went great, and I just topped the other 2 and they're looking great also. Pics soon! :)

Hey man, beautiful set up, next time invest in some mylar or panda film to line your tubs...tin foil is poop when it comes to reflection.

Other than that, looks awesome!

Ha! Totally forgot to get those pictures. Anyway. I just gave the plant another topping, its lookin great. You'll see some egg in the picture, I put in to help a bit of yellowing. Worked great. The pictures aren't the greatest, but you can see the plant for the most part.
Enjoy! ;)
