Good luck with your grow. There is a learning curve and you have to ride it from beginning to end, no shortcuts for experience. Lights will raise the temperature and you will not want to have any higher temp than 80ΒΊ. So take that into consideration while you're hiding your grow op. As your on a budget I'd look into using a couple of 23 watt or 42 watt cool white for the time being. Later on when they flower you'll want to change the lamp color to warm white.
Shovelhandle Reviewed by Shovelhandle on . First Time Grower - HELP PLEASE Hey everybody, im a first time grower, and i feel like i have no idea what im doing. Its sitting in the back of my closet on top off two shoeboxes (to get closer to the lamp) and there are 2 5000k CFLs in the lamp. but the problem is that i think the lights are only 495 lumens each. I will upgrade soon but thats what im at now. It will officialy be 1 week old on 7/22/13 Monday. its probably about 3 inches tall.
