I'm looking for a hanging fluorescent light. I'd rather buy locally, instead of online. I went to Lowe's today looking for supplies, like the aforementioned light and fertilizer. Couldn't find much, just some halogen tripod work lights. No hanging, fluorescent, 200+ watt lights. Are there any other places I could try? Also, where can I get good nutrient/fertilizer? All the stuff at Lowe's wasn't very high in nitrogen- from what I understand I want something 20-10-10 or similar. One more thing. Is it a big deal if the room I want to grow in is 65% humidity? A book I read said 40-60%.
Fluorescent lighting can be found any number of places -- Home Depot, Ace Hardware, lighting supply stores... Otherwise you can find a hydro shop locally.
