long time smoker... first time grower

[xxxnick89xxx]

Alright basically this is the deal...

I recently wanted to grow a plant for personal use... I jus want to grow one plant at a time just to see if I can. I already have some seeds from pulling them out of buds in the past. I know this gives no guarantee on the quality but ill be happy if I get buds in the end.

I went to the store and got a 10" pot, some paper cups, 120 watt plant bulb, a reflective hood to intensify the light, a couple of 3" fans, timer switch, and im goin to get some type of refective material for the walls of the grow box im goin to build. ( Suggestions? )

I was goin to germinate the seed using the paper towel and plate trick. Then use some seeding potting soil to start in the cup. then transfer it to the pot using mericle grows 3 month soil.

The box I'm goin to build is 1.5 ft deep, 2 ft wide and 4 ft high. Going to use
2x4 and plywood to build.

I'll take all opinions and suggestions...... :jointsmile:

your gonna need more light. If your going for the budget grow, from the advice I have gotten, basically just get a lot of daylight CFLs.
