[QUOTE="Lycanthrope, post: 157260, member: 562"] Are you familiar with basic electrical? Have some tools? First thing you need to decide is what size area you want to grow in and what your budget is. If you are going to build something yourself, you can usually do it for around $1/watt, that 220 watt light cost me around $200 for parts, which is about 1/3 what a commercial product would cost. For low light plants like lettuce youll want 10 to 20 watts of fixture / square foot of floor space. For higher light plants like cucumbers/tomatoes/peppers, shoot for 25-35 watts of fixture / square foot. That light I built is great for up to a 3x3 area. You can go with less light, but it could affect your plants, depending on your growing skill. [/QUOTE]
