all the advertisements said 400watts were good for a 5' x 5' area... guess they were being a little optimistic :P
been looking around and didnt want to spend too much money, im hoping that this will actually save me money in the long run, and plus growing is awesome


And 39 watts of flouro is not gonna be enough to root the amount of clones needed to fill your growing area, unless you do a few clones and grow em' big.
Just keep on reading and saving for proper equipment, you'll get your garden going beautifully.
i was asking because i already had these laying around, ill pick up something with a little more punch....

and i think i may just by like a cheaper t5 fluorescent and start working on my moms, and by the time they are ready i should have the rest set up. know any good deals for a 1000W hps?

thanks,
