I'm not worried about the power compnay..or anything of the sort. or popping the circuts. been there done that. ( not with the plants..but with a vaccume cleaner --.--)
the only thing I'm worried about, are my plants. who were (mabeys still are) in desperate need of more light. thought I bought anotyher set of lights 2 days ago and have seen a significant amount of growth since then.

I was told on another forum that using Floro lights is fine for the entire indoor grow. I just have to switch the light-color spectrum. ( or something of the sort)

I refuse to buy a HPS system. I went and looked at the equipment at a local Farm & Fleet.. and I'm NOT paying $30.00 for ONE lightbulb. I dont even want to imagine what the ballast + other shit would cost me.
I'm a poor white girl living with her finace in an inherited farmhouse:stoned: we dont have a whole lot of money.

so right now I have two florecent lights or 4 48'in bulbs on 14 plants.
Thats either 160 watts, or 7600 lumens.
is that enough?

I will be picking up mylar, however it more than likely wont be until saturday. I wont buy it online, I'm sick of buying things online. shipping as astronomical. so I'm desperately seeking greenhouses and plant nurserys that sell mylar in my area.
