Hey Rastaman, cool setup you got going there. I came really close to building that for my first one, but ended up getting offered a good deal on an Emily's Garden, so decided to go with that instead. Do you like how it's working for you so far? I guess you don't have a lot of hydro experiences to compare it too, but how do you like it as opposed to growing outdoors?

You know, yesterday I bought those exact fluoros you decided to get rid of. Should I take them back and get a different bulb? I think they had 4 kinds, but all the others said the color was 4100K, which isn't too great for plant growth. The aquarium and plant bulbs said that they were full spectrum (or was it wide spectrum), so I figured they would be best for plants. Now I don't know though. Could you elaborate a little more before I take them back or decide to try them?
