First Grow

Hey guys its my first grow in my closet. i have done tons of research for hours and hours and these are some items i plan on purchasing. ANY feedback on whether you think it will work or not HIGHLY APPRICIATED!!

Tent: http://www.thelashop.com/48x24x60-inch-mylar-reflective-aluminum-frame-grow-tent-room.html#.UUtghlcUnbg

Lights : http://cfl-growlight.com/store/400-watt-cfl-grow-light-unit-p-1.html ............ HOWEVER! i plan to replace the bulbs in this system with

(2) 400 Watt Equiv, 105 Watt, 6500K, 6,200 Lumen (Vegetation) Bulb and
(2) 400 Watt Equiv, 105 Watt, 2700K, 6,200 Lumen (Flower/Fruit) Bulb.

looks good, Might be better off getting 3 65w bulbs in each . I dont like 23w bulbs

as you can see beneath, i plan to exchange the 23w for 105w

I've been happy with my lights from the same place. I got a larger one and my only concern for you is enough light. The fixture is super easy to raise and lower. Just do your best to keep your kolas to an even height or else you end up with too close and some too far from the light. I am going to add in some side lighting for next flower (girls are baby seedlings right now). I am thinking T5ho for that. If you look in my journal you can see I got some nice tops, but didn't have enough light penetration to make them as big as I would like. Too bad they turned out to be hermies, but that was because I cloned them off a plant that had turned.

Which lighting unit do you have for your setup? and im sorry but what are "kolas"?

I have the 1400W one from cfl-growlight. The kolas are the main tops - the big bud sites.

Good luck homie

The multi-spectrum setup? and what is your size grow room?

I go with 75% 6500k, 25% 2700k for veg and vice versa for flower. Mixed spectrum is just a matt of what bulbs you throw in there. My grow area is about 4x4x6. I almost bought the one you did but called up and spoke to the owner (cool dude).

You'll be fine for veg but I would worry about flower. How many plants are you planning to put in there. I find 3-4 about my max to be comfortable.

yes i will be growing a max of 4 plants.. you think those lights will suffice for that? or should i bump up to the 1400w
