Its a closet without insulation so whatever the temp is outside usually means thats what is going to be the temp for inside. I'm in the process of making a grow box as we speak and it'll be done by this week. From now on 18/6 after this batch is flower.:DQuote:

Well the problem with the paint is that it kept chipping off. and i dont want paint chips in the soil. other wise i would have stuck with it. but i am going to get some mylar soon
It seems like you're not using the right kind of paint. I did a similar rubbermaid grow and used white spray paint for the inside, and I never experience any kind of chipping. You need spray paint that's specific for plastics. However, if you're going to invest in mylar, that would be the best choice by far.Quote:

Yeah this is just for the little guys. When they are ready for flowering i am getting two 35 gallon tubs and using those. i am actually thinking about making a mother plant and making a hydroponic system for the clones. Maybe an Eben Flow with a bubbler in it.I was also going to invest in a 400w hps. but the ballast and sheild are pretty expensive. Just ideas i still got a litle bit of time to figure it out.
I had 8 sprouts early this morning. i was gone for like 10 hours and i rushed to water them and i got home and 1 was dead. there are now 7 sprouts, 6 green and 1 red. 4 seeds still havent sprouted. i got one seed from an 8th of some good weed today. i just started germinating it.:jointsmile:
I am planning on mixing up my own soil. Any suggestions?
I still have 8 sprouts. I transfered them into 18oz plastic cups. and i put white pebble on top to keep in moisture and reflect light. I was looking for carbonated water to spray on the leaves and i was stuck between club soda, sodium free club soda, and sodium free seltzer. so i got the seltzer and was was hoping on anyones input to wether or not that is just plain carbonated water?
