Good start! I vegged with 12 26w CFL's on 4 plants and they did fantastic! Now I have 8 CFL's and a 150w HPS.

Oh, I cant do that I have to keep it in the cab, I just put another seed to germinate Im Growing another one, and I added a tube to the fan just now it sucks the hot air out allowing new cold air from the room to enter through the door cracks it worked instantly, its lots cooler in their now not that it was super hot but much cooler now.

Its cool, you could probably do a cooltube 150w HPS setup in that cab and it would work wonders! There is a DIY on here somewhere. Just keep that airflow moving.

Please take a look at my two journals. The first is a completed first grow which came out bad ass fecking awesome. The second is my second grow step by step with a PPP seed. Both with CFL. The second journal shows the actual bulbs being used.

I just discovered that the bulbs I am using are all 2700k's, Which I understand is Ideal for flowering but I am still in veging and will be veging for another 2 weeks give or so, should I get some 6500k bulbs or just continue with the 2700k for this grow obviously I will get some 6500k's for my next grow.
