doing my research

[KingKronic420]

We have some haters to prove wrong.

rule #1: NEVER let anyone else know that you grow, or where you know.

and a couple days browsing 1 site, isnt research. i have been reading daily since i signed up here and at 3 other boards. and i still dont know shit:jointsmile:

time for you and your buddy to hit the forums, and a couple of books wouldnt hurt either.

good luck with the grow bud.

KingKronic420 Reviewed by KingKronic420 on 07-02-2009. doing my research I'm wanting to help mybuddy with his grow. His first go around had very mixed results. He has a bedroom dedicated to this. It thingbuilding a cabinet would help with a lot of his problems. First of all how big shoulwe make this. I'm thinking like 6 feet wide and 2 feet deep. I'm wanting to use cfls for this. How manyshould we be looking at? What should we line it with? White paint? Foil? Would mirrors work? How many plants could we keep in this? Rating: 5

Believe me. I've been reading. A lot. I've gone from knowing nothing about marijuana a week ago to feeling like I have a decent grasp on growing. And believe me, this is a very need to know situation. The haters I'm reffering to are the growers that helped my friend get started in the first place. They think we will never get good results with out spending a few thousand

[jimmy21]

Oh and is there any reason nobody uses mirrors? I'm sure o could find a few to donate to the cause.


One other thing. Where do you buy peralite? I checked wal mart and didn't see it. Is it a garden specialty store thing?

[irydyum]

Light loses significant energy when it goes through the mirror glass on the way in, then loses energy on it's pass out of the glass since the reflective part is on the back.

Also, you can find perlite at most garden sections. I have gotten it from wally world before, your store may be out, or i just searched HomeDepot online and they list it as being sold in their stores.

:wtf:
That is crazy. you could send $200-$300 and get a good grow. Heck if you know what your doing you don't even need that. Now you can spend well over that. But unless your cash cropping then no need.

Also do a search on SOG. That might be the best way to grow if your not going to get a HPS. That way you can spred out the CFLs over the canopy. They don't have the power to get lower on the plant without SOG. Unless you hang them down to get lower. That is just a pain in the butt.

Here's my advice for your research..........start growing, a lot of your questions will be promptly answered.......they may be answered by failure, but they will be answered.

And yes, just use CFL if you are truly as new to this as you say, HPS is a big jump from not growing to growing, especially in the financial stand point.

ALSO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Don't vent out your window, the hot air might set off some FLIC(forward looking infared cameras) Drill a hole in the wall and vent it through the house, it will slightly warm the house(MAYBE) and it wont go to the no no zone(were the po's can see)

We have to vent out the window. This is a rental and we don't want to do any changes to the house. Also this will be a legal grow so its not that big of a deal. We aren't growing yet because we are waiting to become legal. We aren't yet. Believe me. We are very anxious to start

that and i could only image how hot the plants would get with the reflective light. :wtf:

stick to white primer its cheap, easy to apply, and is damn near the same reflectivity as mylar. :thumbsup:

[ForgetClassC]

But wait, you said you only want to grow 5 so its only a misdemeanor, but how are you going to get in trouble if its legal?

[jimmy21]

We aren't legal yet. We don't want to start till we are. And we want to grow as many as possible. With 20sq feet it sounds like 10-15





Its just a waiting game. Damn doctor won't take anyone for a month and it takes 2 appointments and 1 with a thc clinic
