my winter project

Another thing is that in the end it looks like you will get: more height than width.

If that is case, maybe consider putting the T5's on the sides vertically and mount the cfl's on top. T5's are great for close up canopies, no doubt, but they work great as vertical when: Height > width.

I think you can utilize them more and then use the Cfl's to penetrate the top of the canopy a little more. They don't penetrate too much more than the T5's, but I would say at least a couple inches of difference without the PAR meter handy.

That way you can utilize your space a little better....

How will you flush mount your side Cfl's? Outdoor 2 wire sockets? I would say its a small hassle.

Ya Im considering the 2wire sockets. I was also think of using the round t5 type lights.

Here is an old pic of my breeding cab.

The interior fan isn't mounted and my lighting has changed to 4:two wire sockets. But the intake is mounted in the bottom and exhaust out the top.

I am interested in these fans for interior breezing: Crossflow 8" Fan

I like how your using the T.V. to stop the cabinet from floating away.
I screwed mine down to the floor.

Pll's? 2g-11's Good lights, more lumens than regular t5's.

UPDATE ::: all feedback welcomed

I'm going to run 189 watts of lights . Mixed cfl and t5ho 6500/5500 veg and 2700/3000 flower. I will keep a 3:1 ratio .

I have decided to use a corner of my closet in the extra room. I'm going to partion it off with cardboard (tape some Mylar on it ) and paint gloss white on the corner I'm using.

Lights will all be adjustable height and on timer. Shooting to flip the plants at 1 3/4 feet to have a estimated height of between 3 and 4 feet.

Advanced training techiniques will be used to maximize room and yield and stealth.

Using coco noir / peralite mix. #3 pot or #2 . Fox farm trio nutes , pH up/down kit. That's about good.

Here is the latest .. 162 watts of total light . Decided to ditch the cabinet. Have to more fixtures to plug. My timer and fan. Im going to take the hoods off however I decided. Gonna get eye hooks and suspend them like the t5s. Group two together and place them appropriately.

Funny thing is that the weather has been nice around here. Winter and all. Might have to start an outdoor too. But at least I'll have a nice veg space now.
