yah the four 12v pc fans work great i have them wired to a 12v adapter which lets me pic a voltage range from 1.5v to 12v thus giving me speed control for the fans. as for your wrapping paper comment it is mylar believe it of not i did a pretty butcher job putting it in there but it seems to work well.

thanks man, as for the side lighting im planning to LST and keep everything at an even canopy so would i maybe not need side lighting seeing all the bud sited will be at the same level? keep in mind this 250w cfl gives off 14200 lumens and is adjustable by chain for any height...

do a screen of green. first use topping/fimming and lst to get a bunch of main growth points. put up a screen and then just push the plants back under it when they try to grow up above the screen to fill up the screen with what will become bud sites, then when you switch to flower you'll have a solid canopy of top colas
