Gonna start growin' me a crop soon, need some advice..

Ok guys let me start off by telling you that I know nothing on growing plants, let alone cannabis. I'll be moving house shortly, and when I do I'm gonna grow some plants in my bedroom. One of my friends is a carpenter, so me and him are going to build a massive desk going accross one of the walls, the desk will have sliding doors on the front, so they can be easily hidden,etc.

I'm only 17, and am saving up for a car and stuff, so I don't have much of a budget in place, so I'll need all the cheapest stuff I can get. Like I said earlier, I know absolutly nothing on growing cannabis, but here's what I have in mind anyway...

I'll have lights in the cabinet, but I need to know which ones I'll need - and how much they'll cost. Someone told me that having tinfoil along the walls of the cabinet will help spread the light, this sounds like a reasonable idea to me.

So anyway, do you guys have any information for me, I'm a total newbie when it comes to growing and would really like to grow a stash so that I don't have to go through dealers as much. Any guides and stuff would be much appreciated.

PS, How badly do you rekon a few plants would stink out my room? The smell wont bother me too much anyway, I mean my room stinks of weed cuz I'm always smoking it in here anyway.

thanks for any tips 'n shit!

Hi wes...
growing is fun.. you are going to be so stoked when you see your ladies BUDDING!!

you really should go to a book store and flip through a few books...
there are some really good ones that will give you the basics and more..

if you are first time grower.. you should seriously consider cfls(compact fluorescent lights). very simple and cheap.. they don' produce a lot of heat. This keeps the grow simple... but you won't get much bud... but for your first grow they are fine...

yes your room will stink..

you need
soil, perlite, ph test kit (simple and cheap, don't stress), light, container, fan

....
happy growing...

wait, your 17.. ? is that legal to grow?

Hey wes...

Check it out... what do you say, if you hold your car for another year?

Then you're going to get a much better car, after you grow your weed.

Look, grow now, and use some money for your grow (MH bulb for vegetative growth, HPS bulb for flowering)... Once you do the 1st crop, sell some of it... you'll get your money back, plus more. If you do another crop, again, sell some of the stuff... if you do this, you'll end up with a more pimpin' car, your home-grown weed, plus more cash in your pockets. :)
