Heyah,
I'm getting ready to start some indoor budZ. I'm thinking about getting the "Big Bud" strain, and I have a few questions about setting up the growing room.

I'm going to use my closet which is about 6'x6'. When the door is closed it is completely dark in there. I want to grow 4-6 plants at a time. If I use bins that are about 1 foot high, and 1.5 feet across, how many plants can i put in each bin? Do I need any wholes put in the bin's? How powerful a light do I need, and what type do you recommend for a light that will be used throughout the whole process? If the light is above the plants will that be enough, or do I need to build some type of shroud to reflect light at the plants surrounding the bin?

Well that's enough to get me started, Thx for taking the time to read this and any information. :D

Hey man i cant help you with the lights and stuff ...But i can help you with the strain....Big Bud...Its all i grow ..But my closet it 6 foot tall and 10 feet long and 5 feet wide.. Its good growin space for 1-3 plants but when you put in to 12/12 you better watch out ..Thats how my first grow went bad i had 2 400 hps...And 6 plants i let them veg till they was 4 foot tall ...And as you know when you put in to 12/12 the double or triple size.. They just shot up in growth and i couldnt keep controll of them because i tried tieng my branches to stem because the branches were too heavy with flowers and they were too bushy to get around them ..so couple branches broke ...So then none of them got enough light and started dieing...So i would stick with 1-3 plants ....Because Big Bud is a huge strain...Also dont be like me and flower at 4foot tall make it 1-2 foot tall...Heheheh ...Good luck man hope i answerd how many plants you can get in closet if not sorry for crowding up thread....

yea, i think with 5 gallon you could possibly go with three per pot, but what i do when there is more than one plant per pot is put deviders in the pot so the roots dont suffocate the other plants.
