need some growing advice.

Okay im completely new to growing. Ive been doing alot of research over the past couple of weeks. I am waiting for my seeds to come in feminized white widow. its been about 3 weeks now. I am looking to start growing in 2 seperate spots. vegetation room and a flowering room. I wanna get the supplies for the vegetation room so ill be ready to go when the seed come. i should have a good 2 months to set up the flowering room. I wanna go with a hydro system of some sort. im on a pretty tight budget. not to bad but the cheaper the better. I dono how well ill be able to build my own system i saw this one on ebay. let me know if you guys will think itll work for vegetation with a flourescent light. I also wanna be able to clone.

If you were to grow in that system the plants would be awfully close together once they are developed, unless you are doing a SOG type of grow. If you want maximum yield you would want to let them grow a lot bigger than that system would allow. DWC buckets would be better if you have the space, just search 'DWC bucket' on google, you can even build your own with ease. I prefer 1 plant per bucket (see my grow log below in my signature). They are still cheap to buy and use, so should still fit within your budget nicely and you can grow huge plants (trees?) in them...:thumbsup:

you think thatll be 2 small for the vegging stage. i was gonna use it for the mothers and clones. but i mean i want the biggest harvest possible (obviously). i was told i can get a qp from 4 plants in 4 months. so like an Oz a plant. your telling me i can get more?

what are the dimensions of your flowering chamber? and veg chamber? what kind of lights are you using. flourescents for veg are fine but i would get an hps for flowering. also i would go with a homemade ebb and flow system. super easy to build and components are readily available, easy to maintain and operate (here come the dirt farmers to hang me lol). Do your thing bro let me know where i can help.

-secret:)

It going in an attic. so alot of space to work with. it has a few seperate closets. I wanna start vegin asap. so i was gonna buy this. a flourescent light. a fan. then start the growing in vegatation state. that way i got 2 months to save up and get an hps a eb and flow sytem to create my flowering room.
