Good call on the lights Hermes, those do look to be the ones. I did a little digging and it looks like you'd want to use a 2G11 Base for those bulbs. But I'd still wait to see what Inefectualize used, because I'm no lighting expert.

I expect those clear tubes are just the "shatter-proofing sleeves" that you can get for standard fluoro tubes.

But we'll never know for sure, appearantly............. :bashhead:

He got the lights from 1000bulbs.com heres the link so you can see...

Hey Infect, do you think you may have gotten better results if you would've went with the 3000K bulbs instead of 4100K?? not hating on your grow cuz it's a dope ass pod you got there I would just think that 4100K is more in the area of useless light for plants, I know it seems to be working good for you but I think next time around you should mix in 2 or 3 of the 3000K bulbs and you may get better buds???

just remember to pick the right color temps for what you are using them for
 
yeah that's the shit....i will be interested to see different results from different spectrums .... i like to run my flower a little on the cool side kelvin wise....it may just be because the plant is more enjoyable for me to look at at a truer to "daylight" spectrum....i have one pic here to show you the proximity of some of the side buds to the bulb....how is that for light intensity? they are rock fucking hard....those that claim loose buds from fluorescent have never grown them a centimeter from the bulbs :)

I'd definitely say you've created a monster, I can picture one of these in every closet.
 
things are coming along...im thinking another week and a half or two weeks....overall i am not super happy with what i think it will yield, but i will hold my opinion till i see the bitch on the scale....i think it might give me 2 Z's if im lucky....

Wow! That is an awesome setup. I got try this! A trash can! Whats up with this pod scrog around a hps in the middle? Freaking space station weed! I like the fan/ scrubber deal in the home depot can! Mastery of recycle pile! Cheaper the better and free is best!

What if you vegged it till you need 2 trash cans stacked? Would you get like monster buds 3' long? Maybe with hydro? Bio bucket would be freaking insane. yeah, and like a sprinkler hose!!

Yeah, its perty good over here to..lol
