Hey all I just got a few questions. First I'll tell you what I'm growing with. I have a 2' square by 6' tall closet with a 60 watt grow light. I am using some good soil (old cow manure) in a 1gal. container. I was just wondering if anyone could give me a ballpark figure on how long it will take to grow and harvest. Also can someone please tell me a good nute balance for veg. and flowering. Also where I could find these nutrients in nature or organic. Any info you could give me would be greatly appreciated. Also if you want some good tips on cheap ways to grow let me know!!
Peace :D

first off ,cow shit's a no no ,it contain's all sort's of bug's and bacteria,and you'll need more than 60w to get anything worth smoking.if there compact fluorecsent's you'll need at least 1 more,but the more the merryier.and try out BioBizz's range of organic nuitrients.

With the light you got even if you were growing in a proper medium an all other factors were cool. you'd be lucky to get an ounce o' bud. i'd get a much bigger pot 'bout five gallon, add a few more fluro's or try keep it cool enough in there with a 250w hid. if ya wanna do organic get rid o the cow shit and amend some multi purpose compost wi' bit of perlite. good organic slow release is worm castings. why not try semi-hydro - two parts vermiculite two parts perlite one part worm casts. feed from start wi' half strength hydro grow food. ps. would like some tips on cheap ways to grow. currently spending £50/week just on electricity. all worth it in the end though

Try using a closet with aluminum foil pasted on the sides. Also go with flourescent bulbs and a light with a hood to reflect the light down. I am using a hanging light that you would use in a barn for young chicks with an aluminum hood anyhow give that a shot also try putting an exhaust fan in the side of the cabinet
(the kind in a bathroom).

aluminum foil is a big NO NO it doesnt reflect all that much light and creates a lot of heat use mylar instead much better plus it reflects 80% of the lgiht whereas aluminum foil absorbs most of the light.
