Hey i've decided to go with a pc stealth grow i'll get some pictures later of it but first can anyone help me with finding a 100watt cfl u-tube or 110watt cfl u-tube can i get one at home depot or walmart? i'll show you what i mean.
large specialty bulbs like that have to be special ordered. best bet is ebay or an online lighting store.
Thanks for the advice =]. I managed to find a site called 1000bulbs.com and was able to find a 105watt(this is not the equivalent wattage its the actual watt)6500k and a 105watt 2700k. Do you think i could trust the site? it seems like it's trustworthy. here's the pics of the lights. Should i get them? i want those because they would fit in my PC box. And also i forget where on here but i saw someone who had a light and an extension cord with power i have that but he also had a plug that plugged into the power cord which could then have a light screwed right into the power cord. Could i get those at home depot i remember someone saying that.
like a light socket that has the two prongs on the end of it to plug into an outlet?? yeah they sell them at HD they're pretty cheap too. but i dunno what the plug size is on those large bulbs. is it a regular size plug??
they are called mogul plugs or sockets. something like that. it's just a small adaptor you screw a bulb into which lets you then plug it up to a power outlet or extention cord, whatever. those bulbs you have pictured i think have medium sockets. they are made for desk lamps and crap. make sure what you get is for a standard lamp or house light
i think those 2 bulbs above use the e40 fitting, this is larger than a standard household screw in bulb. the fitting is the same for hps bulbs. i would def recomend those cfl's and the site, but i would check ebay for prices and maybe concider upping the wattage slightly. I have a compact grow, check it out and tell me what you think- http://forum.grasscity.com/general-indoor-growing/413523-my-little-cupboard-second-grow.html
Yes, the u6 and u8 style bulbs take a mogul socket. Hydro farms makes them, they run about $11 sunlightsolutions has those bulbs in 6400k and 2700k in 125w and 5000k in 200w
no, the SOCKETS are $11. As for the bulbs I listed, I just wanted you to know there are stronger options if you want to spend a couple more dollars
