im using a 2ft tall 1ft deep by 1ft 4inches wide. its got a single 23w compact florescent light and 2 5 inch computer fans hooked up to it. no light get into it.

any body think it will be able to grow start to finish for 1 plant?
Ive got 6 plants in ground outside right now so this is more of an experiment than anything else.

also its like a week and a half before budding, can i take a clipping from one f my outside plants? Ive got a pretty little love potion outside.

agreed, and i wish it were so, but the conditions in which i live under are rather... restrictive.(my mom fails to notice 6 five foot tall plants in the back 40 and the uprighted 1970 marine corps trunk in the corner)

Sorry brother, but you should not be growing in your parents' house without their permission - it can cause them serious legal complications, and definitely tons of cash if busted. Just wait until you get your own place, then you can do whatever you want! There is a sticky somewhere about this.......


Good luck in a few years, when you get your own place!

Peace, :jointsmile:

If it were a foot or so taller I think you could barely manage to squeeze a plant in there but you would have to keep an eye on CFLs so they don't burn the leaves (and you would definitely need more than what you have)

Not impressive.

Respect for your family is a pretty basic thing- you need to work on THAT before you do any more growing.

I'm just curious, how do you get outside plants to bud at the beginning of August? :wtf:

Did you ever stop to think that maybe your mom just trusts you? You sure know how to repay that trust, don't you? :(

Outdoor plants at 45' N latitude have been budding for 2-3 weeks already. Bud mass light as yet, but they've been sexable for a while and males are DEAD lol.

TRUST? YEAH SURE
yes as a matter of fact i have let this cross my mind, im sure my mom wouldn't mind it to much, but she would give away half my weed just like every time i have more than an eighth.:mad:
if someone stole half your shit every time YOU had ANYTHING you would keep it a secret to.

the funny thing about her is she doesn't smoke, she just gives it to her loser friends.

um i wish i knew why they budding now, i wanted some more size to them, there only about 4 1/2 to 5 feet before a few nights ago.

I'm going to briefly re-iterate something I've already said:
Growing in your parents' house wihtout their knowledge is frowned uopn, whether or not you think it is something they would be cool with, or even if you think they are shady themselves.

That being said, I don't want to see ANY flaming here.

Bicflikr, it comes down to what you choose to do but don't expect a lot of help, and take the advice gracefully.

Any flaming on this thread from either side will be dealt with.

well its grow or spend 500 a month on weed i cant afford anyway.

im moving all my stuff to my girlfriends today, her mom has a script and cant wait to start using the box.

ill think about telling my mom about my outdoor, it just sucks knowing if i do she will just take most of it or go out and harvest it a month early and give it all away... especially since im pretty sure this harvest wont last all year anyway. MAYBE I SHOULD BUY A SAFE..

Well, I guess I stuck my foot in my mouth. Sorry to hear you have such a flakey mom. :(

On the bright side, if your g/f's mom has an Rx, you could set up a really nice grow op and have bud all year long. :thumbsup:

When I read this:

I thought he meant he was 1 1/2 weeks from harvest and is it ok to nip a little bud to smoke? :stoned:

So I thought, wow, how did he get an outside plant to finish in the middle of August. :wtf:

I'm glad this is all sorting out well.

You're going to need several more CFLs in there, lose the tinfoil, spray the inside white or line wiht mylar camping blankets, and add some ventilation.

dude, if you are spending $500/month on bud, why don't you try to knock it down to $300 for a couple months and get yourself some decent grow gear and in a few months you'll never have to buy bud again.

...and you'll be smoking a lot better weed. :thumbsup:
