hello folks,
I want to get a wee garden of my own going in my house and would appreciate any advice from those who know. Never grown ANYTHING before so there's a good chance i'll make a mess of it, and would hate to see that happen.
I'm planning on buying some feminised seeds online (any tips on which strain will give me a good kick and not be too delicate would be great!!), and trying to grow 4 girls for my first grow. This will leave me a few seeds to try again if it goes to the dogs.
I have a spot picked out, which is a disused chimney wide and high enough for 4 plants I recon(though it might get crowded near to the end), and plan to use some CFL's, mylar or such, and a standard fan for circulation. The chimney goes straight up and doesn't tapper as it rises so i should be able to adjust the height of the lamps to anything from 2' from ground to 5'-6' above ground without any problems. I'm planning on building a box within, with an adjustable top side to hang the lights from that could go further up the chimney as i needed it. I'll use some tubing to allow air to get up throught the top and into the chimney itself. A strain that grows bushy as opposed to tall may suit better. Or if you'va any tips how to grow in a small area either.
If anyone has some good advice or links I'd really appreciate the help. I'm just fed up of having to deal with dealers, and I'm in the midst of the worst drought Ireland has seen in a long, long time. I want my own supply!
