Hello New here I need some help with my *ghetto* set up..LOL Anywyas im growing in a clothes cabinet which I modified to grow LOL. Inside I put the shiny part of christmas paper..and my lights currently are 3 100watt energy bulbs. And I got a fan which I turn on everyonce in a while to make the stem a little hard I guess and to get air in there. The temperature in there stays about 85-88F is dat good..?? Im a first time grower and I only have one plant as we speak Im basically doing this because of experimenting..I guess and of course curiosity so Im I doing anything wrong so far?? or any suggested ideas??

. ThankS!

What's goin on? Are you able to take any pics of your setup and current plants? You need those temps to get down quick! They will stunt growth, the only time I believe you should have temps that high is if you are using co2. And what kinda lights do you have, if they are CFLs or fluorescents I'm assuming by 100watt you mean equivalent to 100watts? so like 26W actually or around. If you are vegging i'd try to get Daylight 6500K spectrum CFLs or fluoros as they tend to have a spectrum that vegging/seedling plants love....hmm what else :) You should always have a fan in there goin for circulation, and with you temps being so high it'd probably help with that too. Where is your fresh air coming in from? What are the temps of the surrounding area? Too hot or too cold is a bad thing, try to keep it in the range of 70F-80F. Anywho that's all I have for now, if you have anymore questions shoot! Have a good one
