    ur gonna need to b able to rase and lower the light.

    put plastic not tinny on the floor, when it gets wet its dangrous with electric around.

    im glad to c u done the back of the doors aswell, or atleast it looks like u have.

    ur gonna need a fan and some venting, leaving the door open will give the plants the air they need but a fan is a good idea.

    bluelight? wots that? can u post a pic of the lamp and the balast plz, im intreged by this.

    mount the sockets off the floor, water spills etc.

    light leaks?

    good luck with the grow, it looks like ur off to a good start there.

    ur blue light aint a hps m8, i dunno wot it is but it aint hps, im guessing its just an incandesant. not good.

    if u want a hps then look at my post in this thread if ur in the uk or get some fluros.

    CFL, tube floro, Mh, and hps are the only lights to grow under for flower and veg.

    Your Blue Light is what we'd call a Grow Light in the US. It's designed to make your plans grow taller and more rigid, and is a good thing for the rest of your houseplants, but it won't help you grow good weed.
