Okay, heres a couple pics of the lights I set up today. I started the plants experimenting and they took off so I wanna see em thru to the end. I originally had them outside but as of this mornig I am FED UP with scratching my ankles and shins!! I HATE ticks, chiggers, etc.! So I went to walmart and bought some lights and fixtures and this is what I came up with. I took a 16"x48" piece of plywood and used 2, 4-2 socket outdoor fixtures and 8 cfls. the lights are 26 watt, 1750 lumen. I wrapped the plywood with the dull side of tinfoil and wired everything into an outdoor timer. Ive got three planters with multiple plants. Im sure I will be adding more lights just not sure what or when. Im saving chip bags and anythig else resembling mylar to cover the surrounding surfaces. The first pic is looking in the closet at the light. The other is looking up from under the light (plants eye view.) Suggestions welcome!
