Using this light for veg and flower - CFL Lights*>*CFL Grow Lights*>*Budget 125W CFL Systems



Will i be able to grow one plant in that bin with that light, keeping the light a few inchs off the top of the plant at all times.

If not that light, what light?

Many thanks to whoever helps.

Sure, no sweat. I'd reccomend building a door on the front somehow, or watering and whatnot will be a huge pain in the ass.

I put a 70w HPS in a trash can. It's a round one though and only 32 gallons. with a few passive intake holes in the bottom and a 4" inline fan in the top it runs at 80 deg F. You could probably put that 125 in the top, and fill the lower sides with regular 23 or 46 watt cfls.

I really like the straight sided square bin too, maybe I will upgrade.

Hello m8, can u link me to a website that sells inline fans.

and also do 23 watt cfls fit on this? CFL Lights > CFL Accessories > 4 Metre CFL Lamp Lead

also woud u link me to somewhere that sells 23 watt cfls what ships to the uk if thats ok

many many thanks.

Here are the fans I mentioned. In Line Duct Fan,boost air flow The 4 inch size is nice, because you can use the flexible shiny dryer hose to pipe the exhaust somewhere if you like. This was just the first one I found on google, there may be cheaper


I can't tell whether the 23 watt bulbs would fit in the cord you linked, I don't see them listing the size anywhere. If the 125 fits into that, I would assume that the 23 will not. The 23 watters fit into the same size sockets used for normal incandescent lamps, however, so it should be no problem to find some kind of cord, or fixture to use them with. Also, you can buy the 23 watters at any department store...walmart type of place. Heres the first place I clicked on from google for 23w cfl

i thought this was a thread about CFL proximity to foliage.... it got WAY off track
