I
might be setting up a personal use set up. But before I do I have a few questions about... everything. My plan, maybe go to Target and get a plastic tub, assuming I can find one, 2(wide)x3 or 4(long)x3.5(height) just something along those lines. I tend to do that SCROG or whatever technique is called. I'll be using 3 or 4 seeds, and bash it down to 1 plant when I can sex. My biggest question is lighting. I'll be using CFL's (not enough money for MH or HPS) plus I live in a hot climate so I want to minimize heat contained in the box. I got my fan set up so that's not a question. but as for the lights. When i find the bulbs I need (I've seen the specific k's needed for each stage) but my STUPID question is, what do I use to operate the light? When I go lowe.com or homedepot or what not, I find the lightbulb, but no ballasts. Does it fit in any lamp? If so that'll be great and easy to set up.
Everything else i seem to be able to find easily, it's just this one issue I havn't seen anyone really mention here on GC forums. Everyone talks about the bulb, not the fixture... so thanks
