what..............is..............your............ .....budget?
well my friend happened to have a 3 ft uv light, will that be fine for 2 plants? and my budget isnt super limited but i'd like to save as much as possible. also, can someone explain to me when you need to move the plants into diff pots and all that and what size? sorry lol im new to this, its overwhelming
1. a 3 foot UV light is not enoughQuote:

3. growing costs money...$$$...how fast do you want to grow?
just do some reading.. this forum is a wealth of info..
or, stick them in the ground outside if your in a warm area.. water once er twice a day depending on weather.. and harvest in 3months or so..
yeah...growing info is hard to spoonfeed....:cool:...go to the trough, and pig out
so should i go w/ that clamplight setup w/ the cfl's? its a pretty small closet lined w/ aluminum foil. nd if i just germinated 2, should i start them out in a 1 gallon or in something like a solo cup tht i can easily cut open to transport them to a bigger container
yes...16 ounce party cups work well...for germinating seeds and growing seedlings for 3 weeks veg...:thumbsup:
ps...fluorescent tubes work better in veg than CFL's...IMO..:cool:...must be 6500k
alrght, so say im about to leave for home depot with all intentions of buying everything i need.. can you help me out with a shopping list of some sort? like what kinda lights and prices and all that good sh*t
you can't buy what you need to grow good weed at Home Depot...sorry...I can't think down to that temporary level. You want to grow good weed?...or just giving it a quick failure shot?Quote:

well help me out then, thats why i posted this lol. these 2 seeds i just germinated are simply a trial, i ordered seeds from a seed bank so i have till whenever they get here to set up something good. that being said, what CANT i get at home depot? soil? lights? u didnt specify
I have a 2 x 4 closet with a 8 foot ceiling. The height is the most important part of a closet grow. (it gives a place for the heat to rise)Quote:

....BUT, it's in an empty darkroom...cooled by AC.
if your closet door HAS to be shut during lights on?...you would never be able the use HID lighting, unless you use a cool tube. Otherwise, you are stuck with fluorescent lights.
how big or how many flourescent lights? also what k rating and all tht
