Bathtub. Good choice.
Are you thinking of maybe 400 watt or less? For about $120 in US HTG Supply has a 400 watt kit.

250 or 400 watt HPS or MH is ideal for the hobby grower who wants to be self-sufficient...IMO


...if you have the facilities for it?

I just looked your light up on google your not going to get far with a 60 watt light . Unless is is jus to get them out the seed ? Well like they say you get what you pay for . 60 watts is not going to grow you anything you will need like ten or more ove them to get you a nice vegg. I have eight fourth five daylight code on mine till I can use my 400 watt . Good luck
