Im about to start a cfl soil grow,
Ive got 8 26w 6500k bulbs for veg on 2 plants
and 8 42w 2400k bulbs for flower
im using fox farm's ocean forest in 3 gallon square planters.
I'm almost done with my grow box that I built for $50 its 5' high 3' wide and 2' deep in the grow space. A little tight i know for 2 mature plants.
The inside is covered with mylar though so im hoping that even tho it'll kinda tight light will still refect around the bottom half.
I guess what im getting as is, i'll join this contest for the hell of it
since im starting a grow like your requirements anyway...
All i have left to finish on the box is putting a door on the veg/air intake chamber, and sealing up the exhaust chamber.
