Howdie, I have several spaces i grow in, my home office space constists of 3x 600 watt HIDS,
two are Halides one HPS. My daytime job is for a dispensary, for which i claim to be Master Grower,
or thats what it says on my business card, but believe me im always learning. We run 24kW at the
Warehouse.

I like the style of your grow, and can appreciate the efficiency of your CFL grow, even if it did
take 6 months for a 114 grams :-P

The hood you have looks to be a cooltube with an attached adjust a wing, is that correct?

I look forward to see what you do with your new gear.

Great to have you Shrubs,
Im going to have a taste of top shelf Bourbon in honor of your achievements.

Yes I know, Vegged for 3 and flowered 3. I would have had a lot more I think, but I prune the crap out of my plants. (I dont normally tolerate popcorn nuggs.) One plant was actually 2.3oz, one was 1.6, and last one was 1.5.:eyesmoke: My lungs misplaced all of the partial oz.'s. lol
Thats why I stress 4+oz so much. Because thats all that made it out to the presses.. haha

I appreciate your kind words about my upcoming situations. Go to my $50 tent thread. You can fallow along and maybe join in the fun. "Master Grower":roll: <Haha J/K

Sounds like you got a great deal on the lights. I love my T-5 for cloning.

Okay PappaBear, here are the pictures of my little setup. Three rooms, Cloning room has 1 T-5 fixture (2') with 4 bulbs, 2 T-8 fixtures (4') with 2 bulbs each. I am using fogponics for cloning using a Mistic Cloner. I have used it for 4 cycles now and I really like it. Veg room has 1 400 watt MH with tempered glass, it is the only light I bought new. Flowering room has 1 air cooled 400 watt HPS with tempered glass and a bathroom extraction fan to bring fresh air in from another part of the basement). Nothing fancy but the rooms work very well. It took me a while to get the rotation working as I don't want to keep any mothers. It would mess up my plant limits as I am a medical patient. Three weeks before clones go into the flowering room I take 8 clones and then keep the best six to become my next batch of clones for veg and the process starts all over again. Once the clones have roots they go into Hempy cups. After that it is all Hempy using 80/20 mix of perlite/vermiculite for the rest of the grow.
