I've recently become quite interested in indoor cannabis growing and purchased some seeds online. I have no previous marijuana growing experience, though I have grown vegetables, flowers, and variety of other plants outdoors. I'm looking for somebody to help me out and give me suggestions via this thread, and email would especially be nice. My main concerns with growing this wonderful plant are the space and time I have available. It seems as though I might be a bit short on both. My current situation is that I have a decent size closet area for growing (approx. 2'1/2 x 3'1/3 x 3'1/4 tall) but only til the mid/later part of june until school ends. I would for the plant to reach is full flowering potential if possible. As for the seeds, they are Big Buddha feminised seeds from WWS. I'm also on a bit of a budget. I think growing 2 plants at a time would be sufficient for me, but I'm not certain about this considering the amount of space & time I have. I should be receiving the seeds within the next few days and I already have some supplies. I am also wondering if a standard flourescent 400w grow lamp is the best way to go considering i'm a poor college student :( . Would a lower wattage lamp be sufficient for growing only two plants? Anyway, I have a plethora of various other questions I would love to ask an experienced grower about. I would very much like to have constant email contact with a person with whom I could exchange info, pictures, and questions. Email is [email protected] Thanks for your help.
BTW, I've already read the "Greenman Growing guides" quite thoroughly.

I don't have Windows Messenger (this is what you call MSN correct?) but I will get it ASAP. If you have AIM, that'd be even better because I already have it. :D Anyways, thanks, and I hope to see you on AIM or MSN.

Once dudeO gets you the book read it start to finish.....It should answer most of your questions. You are like most every other person on the boards around the net. Everyone wants to grow the most and best pot around but they don't have the money for the proper equipment. Thatâ??s ok as long as you understand the basics and that book should help you. For a short time grow you would have been better off with a strain called Top 44 from Emmery seeds. That plant you could grow and finish in your time frame. 30 day's from seeds you flower for 44 day's and youâ??re done.

Something to think about, good luck to you.

Yea, my only real concern now is the amount of time I have. Just how much would it affect the plants to only grow them until June 18 or so? I'm really not looking for a huge yield, even 1oz between the two would be fine with me. Is this even feasible or am I better off waiting til I have more time? If that's the case, how do I store my seeds, because they should be arriving in less than a week? =\

Sounds like you could use some Lowryder auto flowering and done in about 8 weeks they are short and compact as well.......
