flo tubes? or the actual worklights? I've seen the work lights as cheap as 7 something each without bulbs

15 bucks won't be enough to get all you need for sure...save up and keep the seedlings going and head there with at least 60 bucks for flos the chain to mount them and enough tubes (you'll need 'em...some burn out fast as fuck)

At Home Depot wire mesh is in the building materials section. Chicken wire is labeled "poultry mesh," other kinds of mesh are in that section.

A 2'x10' roll is I think the smallest you can get, probably around 4 bucks.

allright people thx for the input but I need one more question knocked out before I go packing I dont know if I should get a 20 watt floro or a 40 watt I think the 20 watt is 9.99 and the 30 watt is 15.99 also the 40 watt is 19.99 which one should I get(remember I already have 400 watts HPS on standby with a spankin new ventilation system so heat aint a problem) also I only need the lights for the first two weeks of growth or until I transplant any help is needed

well are you talking compact flos? the kind you screw in a standard light socket that is..

if so the 40watt model is like 150watts in relation to a normal light bulb (lumen wise) so it's probably worth the extra cash to start your seedlings off with lotsa light that isn't gonna burn them to hell like HPS would

buy a compact fluro bulb then buy a portable amuminum worklight. I used a 40 watt screw in fluro it puts out tons of light no heat and the plants love it. Altogether thats like 15 bucks I think the bulb is 4 or 5.
