Stoned thought.. Will putting mirrors in the case help reflect or spread light at all?

Nay nay man, mirrors absorb light. I would suggest putting some reflectix or painting the inside white for optimal light distribution.

I try to keep it as close to the bulbs as possible, at least that's what I was told to do with the cfl bulbs.. It is raised a bit so I have some sort of control as to how close it gets. I'm really not sure if I will be doing another computer grow, this was for shits and giggles.. But now I want yield.. 250w next.. Then we'll see.. I wish I had space for a 400 or 600..

Nice plant Oaklandish :) but why do U grow only one plant? At next grow use LST and longer vegetation for better yeld.

This was purely a learning experience.. I was not sure that a plant could even survive in this case.. But now that I know it is possible, I will have to rebuild one more time after this plant is done.. Next time I will use as much soil as possible, a container the entire width and length of the case, and lst during veg.. I simply got the plant too late and flowered immediately.. Also need to talk to douchestubbler about building a miniature hydro setup, I love his =] Just need to decide if I want to try soil again next or hydro.

Chopped early and dried.. 5.7 grams dry. Meh, better luck next time. I am currently building a new cabinet... 33"h x 24"w x 11"d... Two 2foot 2bulb T12 flouro fixtures, one on either side of the cab.. For the top of cab I am going to go with either 75w or 150w hps security light..
