I was thinking that perhaps penetration wouldn't be as much of an issue since you are only worried about the very top anyway.

Thanks to all the KaK Smackers out there!

I think there are some grow journals or at least some threads with cfl scrog.. and they are badd ass

check for HUMBOLTS threads .. that dude was cool!

35 bulbs at 42 watts is 1470 watts well with in the operating range of this hood and that would creat 105,000 lumens and you say that is not enough to bloom 14 plants wow look 80,000 lumens is enough for 14 plants let alone 105,000 lumens of what ever kelvin rating you want. BOOOOOM i think i just sank your battle ship WELCOME TO THE THUNDERDOME BITCH.
