First 100% CFL closet grow
Salutations Tre93543,
It would be surprizing if you didn't have any ventilation, yet i'm somewhat worried about these CFL lamps as they must NOT be operated under hot/moist conditions since this could turn into a serious fire hazard, actually... I've been hopeful relatively to my own CFL lightning evaluation during the last year and yet i failed to realize that all along. Recently SpiderMites knocked my project down, i thought dryness could be a factor so i went shopping around for a humidifier. Since that's an open structure moisture level remained low, luckily!...
Now that i've pulled the plug there's some more time to read and after what i found i'd just prefer not to imagine what could have occured in a closed cabinet, while i was out of town!
Sorry if i sound demotivating, that's not my intent. But it seems none of the available technologies is 100 % suitable (always a trade-off to be made over heat, spectra, lifespan, efficiency, toxicity, name it!), etc...

First 100% CFL closet grow growing in organic soil in a 10 gal bucket 7 x 26 watt 2700k CFLs 2 x 23 watt 3000k CFLs 1 x 45 watt 2700k CFL 17,500 lumens total The lights are suspended by a piece of plywood with holes drilled in it to run the wire through. This provides for raising/lowering, or moving of the lights individually, and it works great for me. used basically the same for vegging, and flowering. Uk CHEESE Clone, 7 inches when I got her, vegged for 3 weeks, flowered at about 20 inches. She is now at day Rating: 5
