Will this work?

So I had some spare parts at home and i built this. I used 2 x 7 Watt LED bulbs and 1 x 10 Watt bulb. I also have a switch that turns on the lights for 18 hours a day. There is a little PC fan that circulates the air in the cabinet. Any tips how could I improve this setup, or will it work at all? I also have some LED grow strips.

Lot of thanks!

people will use this kind of setup to keep a mother plant alive to take clones from and they do alright. but if you want to make bud you'll need a much brighter light. even a 600w or 900w LED should do ok for flowering.

At least you're growing tho. and that's all that matters. i started my grow with 2 of those bulbs on one little plant. it really got me into it.

Thanks for for the tip!
Should I also mount my led strips? Do you think they would help?

Hi, I root clones and begin the veg'ing plants under 6500 kelvin fluorescent lamps I bought at home depot thy came in a 4 pack for about 10 dollars, they work very well. You will need a fresh air intake system and a air exhaust system if you plan on growing in the cabinet long term. You will need to change the lighting for the flowering stage when you go to a 12 and 12 light period.
But your plant looks good, your are doing well with it.

I have the plant in a pretty small room, the windows is nearly always open, and a fan moves air into the cabinet. I hope this is enought, tho' I'm pretty sure its far from ideal. Thank you for the help!
