Damn... reflectors are expensive!! Gotta pay to play I guess. I should have built a reflector out of scrap wood and mylar.. Anyways:

I hung the t5's on end for side lighting and hung the HPS relatively high to start, just to see what it does to the temperature. I'm glad I put in an extractor vent to the attic the other day, that should help a lot.

One more quick question: About 4 days ago, I transplanted all of them into 4 gal containers filled with fox farms original (i know... I should have used ocean forest). Anyway.. Should I let them veg for about a week to get the roots into the new soil, or will that happen anyway? I'd like to go to 12/12 pretty much right now.

Along with that- I understand the soil has enough nutes in it for a few weeks. Can I add "Big Bloom" now, or give them a couple weeks of 12/12 first? I also have been reading into molasses, so I might add those in weeks 4-7 of flower.

not bad so far for my first time i think. i seem to have enough lights now at least ;-). hard to take a pic, that HPS washes out the contrast quite a bit
