Leads me to believe the larger bulbs have more penetration, although if you're gonna use CFLS i guess you should LST or SCROG so I'm not sure how much that comes into play. I also noticed my smaller ones putting off more combined heat, or at least it felt that way to me. I stopped using 26w bulbs first (got 2 more 125w instead), and then stopppd using CFLs all together.

EDIT: my 125w were those Feliz "name brand" bulbs, so I'm not sure how much that mattered. My 26w were GE.

thats why if running big and small bulbs u place big ones overhead and small ones to the sides

Yes, well, that would be ideal. Brings me to my next point, i hated moving around all those bulbs all the time.

way to be thorough. =)

I've got to paint the roof still. and put on a cabinet type door. or I might just velcro a flap around a hole on front. not sure yet.

I didn't pick the most convenient place to grow the first go around, or containers. Moving things around was a bear, whether lights or fans or plants.

It's nice to be out of the closet, lol.
