today i procured a lot of the things i needed to setup this CFL grow closet. I'm planning on using a 300 watt cfl bubl in the main fixture on the cieling. I have 3 indoor lighting spotlights (they are little white cylinder shaped things that have a 60w capcity) and ill be using small 100 watt bulbs in them. I know this is a bit risky but im very much willing to take it for the extra wattage. Finally I have to mounted spotlight type lamps wich i have not decided on a bulb yet. they have 150 watt capacity and i was only thinking of putting 100 watt lamps in them; by lamps i mean they are bigger than a regular bulb im sure you can imagine what im talking about...(kind of like a heat lamp but not...and halogen) the closet is spacious with a canopy built around the entire closet and covered in foil. the canopy is built 2 ft away from the cieling...i know kind of high but with cfl lighting i dont think they'll get too big and iff they do ill move them to the floor of the closet. theres a digital thermometer under the canopy in the shade of the canopy I'm also going to put a medium sized fan to circulate air and keep things a bit cooler. the lamps are connected to a plant light timer which has a light sensor on it but i covered it with duct tape and it can do dusk to dawn, 2, 4, 6, and 8 hour incriments and on all the time. im taking suggestions and tips.
