being limited on any room some folks just aint got the room for massive lights or the things you need to do a decent grow,
that aint no reason you cannot grow you a few ounces in a cabnet of some decent bud,you can even play around and learn cloning and or great cross breeds of strians,
being a outdoor grower ,indoor and using lights was once a new to me,
ive no real expertise indoor ,but i know the basics of growing and i use that info to do lil projects,as a winter hobby that has benifits,
i get to smoke a lil here and there when i do a good one successfully
this is newest project,
i have purposely topped it twice to get some limbs started i removed a few fan leaves,which also stunted it,as i wanted,them limbs to reach up
it now has three nice solid tops,(one got damaged by me)that fork,will end up with nine main stalks witha bud in the end hopefully
and limbs to fill it out
i want try keep it 3fthigh at best cabnet is 3 1/2ft tall 2 ft wide by 1ft deep
ive got it nice and light proof and can be vented if need
using only two floro bulbs,(the self ballist type)
pic is of after second topping,

is your cabinet divided, so as to have veg and flower areas?
those type of cfl`s work great for a cabinet grow.
i built a cabinet out of a chest of drawers.
using similar lights, i also installed ventilation fan(bathroom type)
it is working tremendously well
it looks like yours is gonna be sucsessful as well
good luck :)

i also try to give it some sunshine thru the window when i can,few hrs)
direct open window for some true sunrays,when its not to cold,few hours here and there) takes vigilance on my part,but its not like its all i do
too cold now for any direct sun but window light is warm to the hand i let the get few hours of it
its gonna be on 18/6 for few weeks before i sex it
it could be a male and if so ,care less i want the pollen for cross breeding
if its female i hope to at best get a oz from it,and somecutting its it vegg stage to keep the strain alive
peace

sorry to hear that
shit happens sometimes, but kids can be very curious
locks would be a good idea.
when you get it going again, i think it might be better if you put the plant in a mini scrog when you flower. it will give you a better amount when the plant is finished

locking it never crossed my mind,i had no idea i needed to untill now
and yes i'd plan on keeping it small and bushy,or planned it was looking good too,its never over for me, i never quit,its just one more set back
nice pic you have there
peace
