See, I thought 10 bulbs sounded weak for 8 plants too, but since they were lowrdyers it might suffice?!?!?

And the lights are 7 soft and 3 daylight. When I bought them I thought that it might the other way around, 7 daylight and 3 soft, but figured they are relatively inexpensive and could easily fix it if I were wrong. Am I? (Autoflowering plant, will use the same bulbs the entire way thru on an 18/6)

As for the ventilation, I plan on propping up the tub AND the pots using.....anything really...probably DVD cases. So the tub won't be sitting on the ground which will allow air flow in, while I will have 2 6 inch fans on top of the holes to exhaust the heat. My grow will be in a closet that has doors I can shut to give the lowryders complete darkness for an 18/6 light schedule.

I'm thinking of using a soil mix of around 70% regular potting soil and 30% perlite. I'm afraid of messing my plants up with this soil so this could change. Having trouble finding soil right now during the winter!!! GRRRR
Balkey Reviewed by Balkey on . Will this be enough for my plants?! Made a little tub grow set up and was wondering if it will be enough light to sustain what I'd like to have (8, 8 inch pots of Lowryder2). 10 26w cfls. Approx. 17,000 lumens. It's a 50 gal tub. Dimensions: 40"x20x20. Since the picture I used foil tap and carefully applied it to the inside of the container. This will be my first grow, just wondering whether or not it will be sufficient or not. Thanks for any replys!:stoned::stoned: Don't hate on my hole cutting job!!! Had nothing to Rating: 5
