Grow Lights

Well, couple of hours of work and $50 - grow lights are complete.



Using 2'x4' residential fixture, 24hr timer, and utility shelving unit (actually half of one) for the base of the table, table top is 3/4" MDF board. Lights are T8 tubes GE Ecolux 32w with the color temperature of 6500K (4 tubes).

All this is in the basement, where I have rather large, insulated but unfinished mechanical room. White wall insulation sheeting serves well as reflecting material, white Styrofoam at the base does the same thing. All in all, very happy withe results!
