Well...... for starters I'm definitely not getting hosed making 260 a week. I have the easiest jobs in the world, which allow me to spend about 80% of my time learning things on the internet (mainly how to grow).

But whatever. I have germinated my seeds (every single one of them sprouted). I have my closet all set up and ready to go. I used the emergency blankets they sell at walmart for reflective material. I also got my 95watt cfl in the mail. I'm thinking about getting another one, because all I can find at stores around here is 23 watt cfls. Except at Walmart they have 46watt cfls but it doesn't have a kelvin rating anywhere on the bulb or the package. I'm pretty sure its wide spectrum or warm spect which I don't really want. Soooo I may shell out another $60 some bucks to get another 95'er or I might get my HPS earlier than expected and use it with the CFL's in both stages.

Thanks for the feedback about getting seeds. You've made me feel much better about the situation. I think I'll order them in the last month that I'm living here. I'm hoping that I'll be done by then.

I'm gonna start a thread named..... Poor College Student Cultivates in Closet. I probably won't get around to it for a couple of days though. The seedlings are all about an inch tall now and I'm expecting when I go home tonight the roots will be busting out of the 1" rockwool cubes. Then I'll be putting them into the system. Yeehaww.

I've been thinking about getting some stuff called Sweet. It's supposed to be a flavor and aroma enhancer. Just wondering if anyone has had good results with the stuff before I go ahead and throw down $25 for 32oz.
