ok, im a new grower and im gonna tell you about my setup, can someone tell me what they think about it and what should be done to improve it. ok i have a 12 in wide X 12 in long X 32in tall plastic bucket taht i am growing in. i have a small styrofoam cooler holding the pot inside the bucket. its for extra insulation because it is winter here and that means 20 degree weather and im growing in my attic. im gonna make it as warma as possivle. im going to use soil with supplements in it(not sure of what kind) then im also getting nitrogen supplemensts and other supplements. im only growing one plant for now, then ill grow another one later. i have like 6 125 watt lights, but i think i can only fit 2 in the space. is that enough? how long should i keeep the lights on for? i am growing a strain called papaya that i got from Rhino Seeds. give me a lot of tips please. thank you

Don't add any supplements to the plant until it is about three weeks old, then add small small dosages.

Germinate the plant before you plant it.

Get a fan to blow on the sprout so it will strengthen the stem.

What kind of lights are you using? MH? Flos? CFL?

Check out "lighting" in my signature. It'll tell ya all about the different lights. Just in case....CFL is basically a screw in FLO...just has a built in ballast and compatable for a standard light socket. Good Luck!! :thumbsup:
