Hey guys ,

Decided to use one my 30 gallon bow fish tanks to veg / flower some bag seed and HOPEFULLY some Mango seeds with CFL lighting. I have attempted something like this in the past with a Rubbermaid container but heat was a major issue so it didn't work out right before flowering. This time I have come up with a better container to use. I like how the glass keeps the temperature a lot cooler and the fact that I am able to open the top to let the hot air out. I plan on getting a fan to blow in there as well, just waiting to order it.

I want to use the LST method in these pots but I am unsure of the best way to do it.

I plan on getting rid of the florescent strip light I am currently using it and replacing it with 2 more of the 100 watt "equalivilent" soft white bulbs.

Below are some pictures of where I am at so far. I will keep updating this journal every few days with new pictures.

Any adivce on LST/Lighting for me?

Thanks - directional

I just buried the stems of the 2 pots. They are now sticking about 1cm-1inch out of the dirt. The two that are nice and firm I am leaving right now. I will take new pictures in the AM!

Can someone please give me some recommendations on lighting??? I am thinking of getting 2-4 metal clamp lights and putting in the 23 watt bulbs all around the specimen.

get some 42 watt cfls daylight ones ... i would get 6 of those and they would be pretty just like mine
