Nice. You bring up a good advantage to buying seeds.....you know what to expect as far as plants size and flowering duration etc...I've been growing Mostly short bushy indicas. I had one tall sativa, And one i have now is mostly (I think) sativa. Not knowing exactly what you are growing does make it much more difficult. So as far as how much room you need....? I would say MORE than you think LOL.
If you make a decision on buying seeds, I'd appreciate finding out how you make out with it. I've been checkin out some strain reviews and i really like the sound of 1- Blueberry. 2-NYC Diesel, and 3-the popular AK-47.

The thing with getting seed is the gov, they run the mail. I dont have a address i could use. I dont want to send them to the same add as my garden. I really dont want to join a club. , this is not a one time deal I will be a pot farmer.... with some help of course. :bigjoint:

This is my OPINION. Unless you are constantly ordering seeds from oversea's i wouldn't worry about it at all. I'm not the least bit concerned about ordering seeds. Well...I might be worried about receiving them, but I would not be worried about any legal ramifications. Hundreds of thousands of people do it. The sellers (the good ones) are very good at doing what they need to do to stay in business. In England and many other Euro countries (perhaps someone can verify this) its actuall perfectly legal to buy and sell seeds. Germinating them can get you into trouble, but just buying/selling them is perfectly legal. If you had any idea of the sheer VOLUME of trade between the USA and europe you'd realize that there is no way they are going to know that you bought a few tiny seeds. And even if they did they really dont have the resources to go after every single person that buys a few seeds. There is TONS of actual weed being traded as we speak. They can't be everywhere at once. Dont get me wrong, you can't be TOO careful. you'll probably think I'm INSANE but last year I mailed an entire ounce of pot to Florida from...not florida lol. no problem at all. i would not want to be on the receiving end of that but....it happened I swear! There are over four hundred million people 400,000,000 in the USA they cant possibly pay attention to what each of them orders by mail. Its just not possible.
FYI and i think this is awesome, but no-one seems to know....The very 1st marijuana LAW in North America said that EVERY land owner with suitable ground MUST GROW CANNABIS!! Or be fined and/or jailed. My how times have changed.
recently MANY laws have been passed that are blurring the line between usa And canada( and mexico) in an effort to make trade between countries more favorable(profitable) NAU? I've been seeing more and more seed banks in canada advertising to american consumers. The government is a business, not the Non profit big brother agency everyone thinks it is. They just want trade to happen. They dont care what you trade. outside of plutonium lol
Sorry to be so long winded all the time...I'm teaching myself how to type. no mre hunt and peck I'm up to 40 a minute. :) Peace.

I wonder.....i've thought about putting a piece of tempered glass below my light to keep the heat from radiating down. Basically the same principle as a cool tube. Should allow for having the tops MUCH closer to the light without gettin burned. IDK I'm always outside the box. Some days IM full of ideas, some days im full of shit. Its still early IDK what today is LOL.

They have fancoolers for that style light, but i was told that its for the smaller wattage I do have a slot for glass, but i was told i shouldnt run with the glass because I can't us the cooler. I will be burning up bulbs, not only that but its a disposable light. I will reduce the life span.

I assume you mean 'color'. I gottcha. I installed my DIY cooltube yesterday. Its REALLY "ghetto" as they say, But I dropped the temp in my tent by 10 degrees AND put my plants 4-6 inches closer to the light (400W HPS). i also installed my DIY carbon filter seems to work really good too. The misses came home and she said all she could smell was dinner. A BIG difference. :)

I will be up grading my lights after harvest. I just dont know it I should go with more watts. It will be a cooltube system, and should I go with a duel balace MH/HPS?

I will take all the thoughts i can get. Their are four in there know. There is no room for the light to get to the bottom. Its full completely, to small. I will be moving in to a bigger area hopefully after harvest.

yeah i know i know....I'm havin a hard time getting my mind around that though. thank you for not ripping into me! IDK... i can SEE where it puts light where there would otherwise be none so.....(turns shade into light) I trust my own OBSERVATION more than the WORDS of others, sometimes to a fault. :-(
