Good afternoon ,
pPuff, Jdog,
Sorry.... lol... yes... I reviewed the photos yesterday (since day 1) and I counted a total of 5 times it has "slipped my mind". It's just that :rasta:

I've managed to pull it off with an incredibly inefficient setup, from what i've learned personally. If you have the bucks and space to get a hid, then get a hid, if you dont, the go with the fluorescents. You can be a little more creative with compact fluorescents. Make sure they are color adjusted as well. This is just my take on the whole argument. Oh it has taken in my estimation about 4 mos for my grow. It would problaly be a month less if not for the many mods, mistakes, and general mishaps. :stoned:
Thanks for the input Brego. I won't get an HID because the cabinet is simply too small. I'm going to have to build some kind of cool tube... or "cool box" for the HID MH bulb.
People with experience, does a 250W MH put out a lot of heat? Or something comparable to four CFLs? Are there 100W MHs? 150W?
