Making the Closet Grow Tent with what I had

Appreciate it Krane! Do y'all think I should use the tent for veg too, or would there be a huge benefit to just veg in another area?
veg and flower take different light schedules, so both at the same time would be hard. If you are not doing a perpetual grow, then you should just do it in the same tent.

And right above the closet there is storage area that's about 4'D 4'H 1.5'H....I'm considering throwing up some more reflective material in there to make my veg area :) I'm beginning to think that this room/closet was calling for me to grow in it lol.

As long as you can keep the light from each chamber separate it is cool. I can put up a pic of the light I got if you are interested....

nice dirt! What material did u use for the tent? Im sub'd man. And bassman-1st thing i thot was i wondered what ur elec. Bill is?
the bill is way too high!! I am gonna do an outside grow this spring, and just keep moms in the house under the mh, also I switched from 24 hr on them to 18/6 now to save more. Next fall I will start indoor again and use 1 600, or redo my setup to be more efficient with the 2.

Heres some update pics from what im growing now, in another 4-6 weeks these will be going outside. In about two weeks I'll be ordering some seeds, not sure what kind yet but they will go from start to finish in the tent with flouros and 400 watt hps. Let me know what you think...
The largest one is about two weeks old and it was really slow starting out, The two right next to each other are are about four days old, and the smallest one just popped up today :) Germinating two more and I think that should be enough (6)...I wonder what kind of yield I'll get out of six plants vegged inside and put out in the nice southern warmth of the spring and summer (when it gets here), and right now im using fish emulsion and in a few weeks Im buying Fox Farms, I will also be LSTing them..


P.S. Sorry about the ishtty pics, my camera wouldn't focus on the plants very well...

So the closet grow has been moved for a few reasons, but now it's staying up in the attic. The hight in the attic was limited to about 6 ft but it would have been a really tight fit, so I made a few adjustments: I replaced the 3 ft deep sections with 4 ft 2 by 4s, and I turned it to where it's now 4'H 6'D 2'W and I have decided to just fill that area as much as possible with auto flowers:) I had to take the whole thing apart and put it back together once it was upstairs so it was very time consuming! And the four plants that I have been vegging are doing great, I will post pics of everything tomorrow when I'm off of work.
Peace-

All four of the. Plants are doing great! The only issue I have is that the fluorescent lights seem to grow the plant a really slow but also really short and bushy at the same time, they really are filling out quite nicely. I'm also moving my entire grow outside into a greenhouse (hopeing for 20-40 autoflowers mixed with vegtables in the garden 15'W 30'D 10'H) that I'm in the process of building...I'll start a new thread on the new grow once it's up and running with all pics included :)

Dirt a lot of moving around. Hope you find a good stable place!
Yea man it gets pretty stressful on both me and the plants but they are doing very well considering. The greenhouse gardens are coming along very nicely and the move will be for the best it just takes a lot of work. The four high grade midget plants being grown right now should produce a lot of bud once outside, and a bonus is that I have one precious seed of MASTER KUSH!...this will be my green goddess:) The autoflowers will be ordered this coming week, but I'm not sure what to do about the grow room I have now (I don't think I want to invest any money in it since I have done it all for free already) maybe just keep it for the original purpose as a veg room but I'm not sure if that will really benefit the plants much since they will be going out in the warmth of the southern air any way...

Yea thanks bro, I have dedicated a lot of time to these plants even though there are only four right now they are my pride and joy lol. And I think the plants do stretch their root systems a good bit before growing much on top, so no real worries. 61 plants minus the males that you will find (about half)...30 plants will have a nice harvest especially if outside:)

Dang man lol having a girlfriend will help keep your mind occupied if that's what your trying to do...I had to deal with a lot of parent troubles growing up myself, best advise is to really just listen to them lol. Believe me I've been out of school for about five years and I really wish I had payed more attention, and went to college ("knowledge is the key to success") that's my two cents.

I was germinating a master kush seed and it finally popped two days ago, today I planted it :) I have one fast bud seed and one critical mass seed in the mail, they should be here by the end of the week and will be put to germinate as soon as they are here. I think I'll wait about two more weeks and go ahead and order the final shipment ( which has changed a little bit )...10 female diesel ryders, 1 female g13 haze, 1 female white widow, 1 female trainwreck and I think that will be it might add a few before order. And last but not least, the greenhouse will be done within the next two weeks and vegetable planting will begin!

P.S. Will post pics of the master kush seedling in a few days when it develops a bit.
