You bring about some great points. With the lights running so much electricity, is it really worth it?
My first run with the kratky is just a learning evolution about what to do and not do. Several times in the setup of this, I've considered whether it was worth the cost, because running my 54w light( You were right, it isn't 400) and fan seems to burn a lot of juice.

I am going to order an apollo 400w light and hook that up and run it over my system. The kale is growing for now, but I get the feeling, and from what I have read, that my lighting is stunting or slowing the growth.

Thank you again for the informative answer to my questions GPS. I wish I could contribute more to the conversation to liven the board up.. but as I am 25 days into my first attempt, i don't have anything but questions right now.
