OK, here;s my plan - at this time I am not really trying to produce anything, I just want to gain growing experience. But it will have to be a stealth grow as my room mates don't want me to grow in the house. I would like to grow in the closet with DWC.

I would first start to grow a single plant in a 5 gal bucket. Over it, I'll use probably 3 CFL lights, wattage will be as high as the box can handle without heat problems. As soon as the plant has reached a size big enough to get 3-4 babies from it, I will chop it down and get some clones out of it.

Then I let the clones root and reach a size of no more then 5-6 inch tall. They will then be transfered to the bucket in a SoG style grow ...... I know I know, 3 plants don't make much of a SoG grow but I have my reasons.

So to make it simple - a 2x2ft(5 ft tall) grow box with CFLs. Used as veg for the mother, turned into a 12/12 SoG with maybe 3-4 clones.

Questions:
- How much CFL wattage can I keep in there without heat becoming a problem?
- Will 1 or 2 CPU fan running half speed be sufficient to keep the heat down?
- In this size grow, what kind of odor control method should I use? Will an ionizer do the trick?
- Not wanting to grow from bagseeds, where can I get good quality clones in Canada?
- Can you foresee any problems with this kind of grow?
- What kind of CFLs would you recommend for the veg and the flowering periods?

I was thinking about either Purple Haze or Blueberry or NL for this grow.
