Well well well, I have decided to start this up mostly for references, but also for discussion, tips, advice, or anything else that can come out of it. So you do NOT have to ask if you can post, I will NOT mind. So there I was one day, thinking about growing some weed for myself. I thought...

I guess that is what I will do. I just bought a pack of 10 seeds, should I really go ahead and germinate them all if I'll only be going for 1-3 good plants?

From all of the videos I've seen about growing, you want to water them a pretty good amount each time you water them. That is, up until water starts to drain. You did make a drain hole didn't you? If you didn't, extra water can store up at the bottom of the cup and rot the roots. I suggest you...

Well saldy, I have to stick with CFL's for this grow. I'm hoping that I get a decent harvest, that way I'll be even more motivated to go for more and by that time I should be able to have a much bigger area. Actually, I'm HOPING that I'll have my own house 600 miles away from where I live now...

I may be able to make half of the box about 4.5 feet, it will require a whole lot more wood and a completely new plan for the DVD case, but I guess it's worth it being able to get an extra foot of space for the plants. So say I used the LST method for the limbs to lean out towards the side that...

The CFL's will take up about half a foot, so I will still have 2.5 feet for everything else. I didn't really even think about the pot size. I guess I could make the box 3.5 feet high, so I'd have close to 2 feet for the plant alone and I'll be LSTing.

You will need to get a power converter. They aren't that much, and the price for them seems like a great deal after you pay near $5 for a single computer fan.

Well what is the best method of doing it? I'm pretty sure that I was told that I'd need at least 12, and up to 18, 42W CFL's for my size. I'd love for that not to be the case, because those bulbs are damn near $10 each! They alone literally make up half of my project cost.

Why would I need so much more space? I've seen much smaller boxes, even those 20+ gallon buckets that were less than half my size, growing 2-3 plants just fine. I'm not calling you a liar, I'm just really surprised that I'm being told that I need more space. Any other opinions? I hate to think...

1. Get it sent to a friends house where it won't be checked. 2. When I ordered seeds before, years ago and I didn't even end up planting them, they were sent 2 different ways. One was in a small pack that was placed in a CD book, inside a CD case, wrapped up like it was a brand new CD, and it...

Okay, so I'm planning on making a decent size grow box, and it will be a DVD case that will actually hold DVDs on the top so that it doesn't look out of place. I'm planning on it being 4Lx3Wx3H, but I may only be able to go 2W. I will be using CFL's, as they are just about my only option...

That is pretty small, I'd hate to have an extra box to worry about that will only do that much work...even though getting a lot of free seeds from good crops will help me a lot. Would I be able to have clones put in there as well if I made it a little bigger? Once I start seeing any seeds, can I...

I say you just open the door with nothing on but a wife beater. If they ask for you to put clothes on, tell them that you're drunk or in the middle of a much needed nap/sleep and you don't feel like it. If they still go in, hit your face as hard as you can a few times and yell rape!

Well I plan on allowing 1 female and 1 male to stay together so that I can get plenty of seeds, and I was wondering how big of an area I would need for this. I'm growing a short strain, and plan on tying the plants down a little(forgot the name of that, something pressure training) to prevent...

Okay, I have a quick question. The lights I had planned to use, and bought, were 26W with 1,700k lumens. I then found 2 lights in my car while I was just outside smoking, and saw that they were 13W with 2,700k lumens. Would the 13W lights actually be better? Would they not produce as much heat...

That is some great information. I can NOT believe I didn't think about putting some plastic to hang down and I just move it when I want to get inside. Having them all 42W would cost me a decent price over $100 in just the bulbs alone, so that is basically out of the question. I may be able to...

Well I have decided to start growing for my own gain and I've already started reading and doing tons of research...I literally spend more time doing more work for this grow box than I do for my homework and I'm making all A's in my classes, so that should tell you something. Now, I have decided...
