So I went down and bought 2x " HI-Pro" natural light 5000k, 2600 lumen 40w cfl bulbs, highest k i could find at Jerrys, then a i got a 3 way extension cord and two socket adapters, just after only 6 hours i can tell a difference, its crazy, u can already see the new growth. I also bent my tallest one over to start training it, used some metal wire i had to make a "hoop" to ancher it seems to be working fine, already turning up toward the lights, im excited to see how it grows....any comments/tips/advice welcome...just remember low budget..oh yeah also got some Ph test strips, well they test other shit too, like something for pools from jerrys....well i dipped my tap water, it was running high imo, 6.8-7.2, well at least thats the color it matched up too....

Only box i can find on google---so same thing minus the orange top (its blue) and its not "soft white" its "natural" and most important....5000k not 2700k

I hung them right in the middle of my two 4' tubes, I plan to put as many of these cfls as i can fit, also getting more clones as of this week so i gotta wait for final coun t to really position all the lights,
