I'm planning to use this for starting my seeds and rooting clones. The 30 x 30 x 12 box was picked up from craigslist for $30. Got $28 in lighting fixtures from Home Depot. $10 in electrical parts maybe. I have space for seven CFL's and they are mounted on the adjustable shelf. Circulation comes from the AC affinity adjustable speed cabinet fan($25 amazon). I'm undecided on my best options for a hydroponic cloner. Thinking of using a shoebox sized plastic tub with net cups/neoprene inserts holding the clones in water with an air stone. I'm looking for input and suggestions. thank you in advance.

I run a similar size box. I made my own little bubble cloner and I also have soil clones in there too. Your setup looks good. I would start with like 2 lights on then a few days later screw another one in etc. etc. My veg chamber I use has 6 23 watt cfls and I can veg nice size plants with only 6 bulbs. Also I would get a thermometer and hydrometer to check your Temps and humidity.

I checked out your grow journal. It looks like we're on similar paths. Here's the bubbler I ended up putting together
