wyldeganja30 Reviewed by wyldeganja30 on 02-08-2010. Rubbermaid Grow Log I made a grow box out of a Rubbermaid tub i had. I have Five 26 watt Cfls and a homemade rig for them. I went to wal-mart and got a timer, Miracle-Grow Potting mix, Four 8" clay pots, 22 peatmoss Jiffy-Pots, and 2 cans of white paint. This is just a little experiment. I spray painted the inside of the tub white and installed the light rig in the cover. i have an old bathroom vent that installed in the bottom. The lights are going to be on a timer im not sure if i am going to do 18 or 16 Rating: 5

i've been spraying my plants with water multiple times a day. i dont know about seltzer though. start with water atleast

[wyldeganja30]

i have been i spray them every other hour. i just want them to get a little carbonation on their leaves.

too me it doesnt sound good for a plant but im a new grower. does it work?

[wyldeganja30]

I have heard spraying carbonated water isjust as goodas leaking co2 on it

I got two 40 gallon tubs today. i am going to make those into a bigger growbox. ill prolly put the plants in there in about 2-3 weeks. Maybe less then that. I am also picking up stuff for the next grow which is going to be hydroponic. Plants looking good.:thumbsup:

Its day 6. Everything is going great, plants are looking real good. Went to walmart and got Two 40wt cfls. 2720 lumens and 2700k. I also got a couple y splitters at lowes, it all came out to about 30 bucks. so when i got home i replaced the middle light and put a y splitter with the two 40wt on it. i now have 4 26wt and 2 40wt. a total of 12,240 lumens. i was gona get the 68wt but it is way to big for the grow box. i might get one for flowering though. everything is coming together now.

Keep your lights as close as possible to keep it that tight bush you want, so in flower they can get what height they want. Its more important to have close light vs ''lots'' of light while growing up seedlings.

Good luck:rasta:
