the seeds came from an ounce of purple kush i bought a month or so ago. not sure it was grown indoors or outdoors.

Now you have to think about lighting. CFL's will get you started. Look in the lighting subforum here for Ideas that will work best for you. If you do have funding for HID lighting (High Intensity Discharge) you have just under 6 sq. ft. of space so a 400watt HID light is perfect. There's a wide varietie of ballasts to choose from, for $100.00 to $250.00. I recommend htgsupply.com
I'm gonna head to the store shortly and see what I can do to upgrade the lighting without breaking the bank.


Now for the most important part ventalation and odor control. Why is this important you ask. Most growers get busted by poor odor control (if you can smell it, so can everyone else!!!) You are going to need a ventalation system with a charcole filter, how you do this depends on location of this closet and the amount of stelf you need. I am going to need more info to give you the best ideas to accomplish this. What type of dwelling are you in? Do you own or rent? What is above your closet, attic?
I was looking at other grow guides for closets and I've read that opening the door daily will provide sufficient ventilation.
I've got 2 Ionic Air Filters that I've been using so I was planning to camp them outside that closet like palace guards.

I live in a condo. My place stays well ventilated with ceiling fans and open windows.

There are 8 units in my building and everyone is a stoner. This place is baking 24hrs a day. But I don't allow people in my crib because I have a lot of high electronics and I'm not interested in getting robbed. So i'm hoping my seclusion, ventilation and the ionic air machines will keep the smell to a minimum.
