So I don't know where you read that 5000K is the proper spectrum, it will probably work and you will get algae to grow (BluScrnOdeth is getting algae to grow using 50/50 PC lamp!!) but the best type of algae that you want will grow best until 2700-3000K grow lamps, like the ones they use for hydroponics. That's how I came across those lamps from Avant Garden Hydroponics (in my build post) |
BTW, just so you know, i think this weekend i'm going to build a similar system to yours. I can always remove the CFL and put in LED to test them out on one side. I like your layout and it was similar to what i had in mind. Hopefully this wekend.
