okay....so i found a spot to grow...and i wanna figure out what to do to maximize its use. so heres the deal....the area is real small, 2.5feet wide, 3feet long, and only 2feet high. i know its not much but i think i can get a little somethin goin there. now what i want to know is what should i do to maximize the minimum space...and btw i only have like 150w of coolwhite CFL, so should i get a lot and flower from start? or should i try and just get 2 good plants going and LST them like crazy...and top fim and all that jazz? or is there something else i should do? plz dont say find a better spot i really wanna just keep it to this place only. so really im just asking what should i do to get the highest yeild possible w/ (any size buckets), 150w CFL, 2.5'x3'x2' space?

thx for any help ppl...i really wanna get this started, peace out

hate ot say it but i don't think you'll be getting high yields, i woudl suggest getting a few lights and LST your plants either that or get a completely indica dominate strain, maybe you throw them in to fl0owering early

how much is not much? lol ive heard from 2joints-3oz....so idk lol, as the grow goes on tho im sure i will buy more CFLs and stuff....im just going to be starting w/ 150w. would a SOG even work under only CFL? and i kno ppl say dont do it w/o clones.....but if i could i mayb would depending on yeild....so lets say i just got 2 plants and kept adding lights and tied them down big time....and just keep letting them grow how much could i expect? btw if it was possible to do SOG there...how much could i get from each plant? since they would all b pretty small....

thx for help ppl, peace

10-15grams max per plant is my educated guess, and you'll have trouble fitting 2 plants in there with lights and pots.

With your CFLs...is that 150w actual, or the equivalent light output of 150w of incandescent bulbs?

With such limited headspace, lst might be your best bet. Remember, though you've gotta leave space at top for the lights/vents/filter, and space an the bottom for hydro/soil, etc....what amount of those 2 vertical feet are going to be available for the plants?

You might want to check the micro-grow forums for hints and tricks of the trade!

good luck!

dude u really should check the cabinet/closet topics...some guys can pull out some nice stuff in smaller areas then yours

[drumanick0]

it is going to be 150w of CFL...not equiv. also....for ventilation is a 12" fan on them at all times good enough?as for the pots....idk what to do...right now i have 1gal...but im assuming im going to need bigger..i think maximum ill have like 3gal pots...btw i was wondering...could i put it in a pot w/ the same amt of soil just its wider instead of higher? just a thought...btw any good links to those grows? i havent seen any ill go look now tho

thx peace out
