Thanks for the tip! Someone had told me to try and find an extension to screw into the fixture, I'm off to the hardware store to see if I can find something that fits, if that doesn't work I will try the tubing.....

BINGO! Just got 2 medium extenders for each fixture, and 10.5 inch reflector with 2 42 watt cfl's in y-split fit perfect. Can't wait to see what this additional light does for my 3 ladies!

So I hooked everything up at the hardware store & it fit perfect, get it back to the casa, rig it all up with a big smile on my face....drumroll Clark Griswold style hit the switch and no lights....Obviously frustrated I step away for a few bourbons, go back to the drawing board a few hours later and eventually find a way to remove a small piece from the reflector and make it work...Now it is all good, ladies are enjoying the extra lights!

You know I once read somewhere (prob on this msg board) that smoking marijuana wasn't addictive, but growing it was. I am seeing how that makes total sense. I am having a blast tweaking this grow room, cannot imagine the satisfaction of tasting my own sticky icky......

Default Shack's Soil Grow
yo!! Garden Knowm..

Shack's Super Awesome Soil Grow

This is the grow that you inspired.. planning on mixing up my soil and watering as the book details.. but i'm growing autoflower, so the lighting will vary. also have a custom lighting rig that seems to work pretty well.

check it out if you've got the time.
