Nice setup stinky, but I am kinda short of space :( What do you think about 2 moms under ~ 100W cfl in a small cabinet coated from the inside with alluminum foil? Will this be enough to produce 15 - 30 clones per 3 months. I read what you said about watching them and adding light, but what do you think?Quote:

You will need more light than that for clone production I think. A 24" T5 fixture over a pair of small moms trained to grow with a flat canopy would be a good choice, or add more CFLs to your cabinet.
OK. Now Ive got 2 x 55W + 3 x 27W cfls. I think this will do the work, plus I accommodated one chest that was for pillows and blankets :) in addition to the cabinet. So now I got 3 separate spaces - for the moms - the chest (2x55W+1x27W) for the clones the cabinet (2x27W) and the big grow&flowerbox(1x400WMH+1x400WHPS). Bloody arsenal :)
