The ac vent at the top will help cool the lights and I may even direct some of that toward the plants somehow. I will at least have a fan in there. The bottom vent will have mylar in between that and the plants.
I'll probably move the shelves once the plants arrive. There will be humidity trays in there to keep the humidity at least 70%.
I know that 6700k lights are pretty much the way to go with growing plants but since I have four bulbs in this fixture and need to replace them all I've been thinking of mixing it up a bit for the plants. I haven't been able to find any 65watt bulbs lower than 6700k yet. Will any higher k help the plants? I will have at least two 6700k bulbs and would like to get two that are either higher or lower if that will do me any good. Otherwise it will just be 4 6700k's.
Any suggestions?
