im currently trying to grow three plants in a 20 inch wide, 14 inch deep and 17 inch tall rubbermaid tub. The plants have about a foot of room between the dirt and the top of the container. Any ideas here? They have to be stealth because i live with my mom and she would flip. How much light do they need? im planning on going 18/6 to grow them then 12/12 for flowering. Can i grow a foot tall plant and still have it be able to produce some good weed? How many light bulbs should i use? I really need some help here because i dont have any light bulbs other than soft-white and i was using a heating pad for 7 days after planting the germinated seeds which caused about three inches of stretching and very few leaves. Would it be better to just leave them in the dark or should i use soft whites until i can get some fluoros? I really need some help ill post pics in a second.

sorry about posting a billion pics earlier, i have a growlogue over at drugsandbooze.com and i just copied and pasted from my original posts
in these pics you can see the softwhites i tossed in there because softwhite light is probablly better than just a heating pad

Looks like you know what you were doing or were just posting alot of pictures of random stuff while the germination was going on lol. Anyways I hope you can get some better lights than those incandescents because those arent gonna work too much sooner.

hahaha yeah it was a bit of both. Anyway, the container im using is apparently translucent (lets light pass through it pretty well) so im lining the inside with towels to prevent light from leaking out. Using that container, how would you guys grow three plants? Gimme some specific ideas not just "grow the weed...secretly...in the tub" my growlog is here http://www.drugsandbooze.com/showthread.php?t=12902 incase yall wanted some more information

Yeah they're stretching like a Mofo!...need to get rid of those incandescents and replace them with CFL's..they work great especially on a budget.
Also try to keep it close as possible to the plant so it will not stretch for light.
