12 cfl's and no hps? I use cfl's just to add insult to the 50,000 lumens of hps beaming through the closet. Not sure what u mean about the setups, but most of the stuff I've seen on here can either be purchased at home depot, lowes, wal mart. Ebay's god good stuff too if u look :peace:

as for the fixtures.. you can make on yourself.. go to home depot and buy a vanity light (the lights that hang above bathroom mirrors in front of the sink.. they are a fixture with 3 or 4 sockets) then u just get some Y splitters . (these make a single socket into 2 sockets). . if you get a 3 socket vanity fixture, and 9 y splitters, it would accomodate all 12 bulbs... then all you have to do is make a DIY reflector and your in the game..

i would seriously consider getting the 23w cfls tho.. i say this because i know for a fact that 8 of them are sufficient to grow with.. i have been using a 4 bulb vanity fixture with 4 y splitters (thus making it 8 23w cfls) for over a year now. havent even changed the bulbs... i use it in my mother chamber .. they seem to like it..
