    Low cost lighting at Wal-Mart

    Two of those in a 22 liter Rubbermaid grow box, two 6500k for vegetative and two 2700k for flowering, would be nice in place of a 70w HPS if that's all you could get. I'm guessing that 65w gives out close to 7,000 lumens, right? Two would give out at least a little over 12,000 initial lumens and maybe about 10,000 mean lumens after it's been on for about five - six hours. Maybe not the best light penetration, but it'll get you a good half ounce a plant. Shit, you could also toss a 5.0 or 10.0 UVB light in there during flowering with the two 2700k's, that'd up the quality of the THC a little -- at least enough to make up for the lower yield.

    It's not even listed on Walfarts website. If you find an item on their website, you can have it sent to the walfart closest to you without paying shipping.

    Cheers,

    With a cheap extension cord for a one fifty. Just cut off the female end of the cord. The light comes with wire nuts and a mounting bracket. I mounted the light to the wall in the closet.

    No need to match the wires I believe. My house is usually around 69 degrees, the closet never gets above 85 with the doors closed. With the sliding doors cracked 1/2" it stays a perfect 75. This is with four 65w do-hickies.

    theres a black and white so just get a power cord with the same colors not to get confused. I bought a power cord at HomeDepot for like 4bucks and just match up the both the colors with the same colors, theres no need for tape because the lights come with the twist caps that you simply twist the wires together

    it's AC current, no polarity issue, just hook it up, and plug it in ... if its a 3-wire, use white for ground plug, check with someone that knows more, but I believe thats the case ... :smokin:
