Yesterday I re-made my light bar. I have five light sockets with Y splitters that have ten CFL bulbs that are mounted on an 1ft. aluminum foil box. I have figured the lumens out to be around 15,000 give or take. My grow box is 2ft x 1ft x 4ft. I know the box isn't very big but I'm only trying to grow enough to supply me and my gf. With an intake and outake fan the temps are around 78-82. My question is do you think my plants will grow good under these lighting conditions. The bar fits inside the box really well, easily adjustable and can be kept within inches of the plants. Here is a simple diagram of how the lights are ( the Y splitters are on the bottom but i cannot make an upside down Y )
