Stealing from folks = terrible.
Stealing from the gardens of governments and such = 100% necessary

Surpirsingly, the goverment locations use really good soil. Public gardens are a goldmine as well.

I made my grow area for under $50 CAN (est.), there is my list:

2 X 27W daylight philips bulbs (5000k, 1660 lumins, CRI:83) = $15
Pot = $1.15
Top Q Soil with peclite verm foilage = $3.50
Lamp Holders or desktop lamps = $10 & 15$; 2 in total
Power Bar [OPTIONAL] = $10
Miracle Gro = $5.50
Spray Bottle = $1.15
Aluminiom Tin Foil = $4
Cardboard Box = Free
Seeds = Free :rasta:
Fan [OPTIONAL] = $20

Total: $55 w/o power bar, fan

Of course these items arent needed if your using the wind from outside and lights inside.

My grow area is simple too, put the lights at each end of the plant (which should be located in the middle of the pot) about 1-2 inchs away from the leaves. Thats it. Place some foil around the lamps or in a cardboard box if you choose so.

Note: I'm in Southern Maryland not many stores are around here for this selective work, mostly just garden places, or a Home Depot or something. I need to get: Potting Soil Rating: 5
