Pacman123, and anyone else interested, in how i built my box........ I regret not taking bit by bit photos but to late so i will try to best describe how i built the box with tweaked photos and a few odd sketches. used paint so....... pretty weak lol I will use the dimensions that i used...

As the date that i'am going to start my grow comes closer, i am starting to look at my box and think that, like suggested, the fan may not be sufficient to pull enough air. I am UK so my dimensions are in mm so try to keep up. it's 400x700x1000 and the fans spec is. Fan dimension 80 x 80 x...

Cheers! I did it last night and it's looking better than ever! No perlite in this soil, lol. this is an example of how impatient i am being, i've built a grow box and was going to start properly after i get back off my holiday, but i still couldn't resist starting a plant lol, fuck knows...

Do you just leave the plant in saturated soil? or do you re-pot?? after flushing??

Yeah?! well that settles it! 125w CFL here i come! Thanks had a hell of a Bday! out with the lads! there was weed a plenty! Happy to help mate if you've got any questions just ask away!

:peace:I am deciding to go with a 125w CFL blue for vg and red for flowering, the grow box is only, Remeber i am UK, 700mm wide, 400mm deep and 1000mm tall, so that would be more than enough light for 3-4 plants?? Budget is now definatly a factor, my old car fucked and had to get a new one so...

Yeah i am only trying to at least complete a full grow, so i am trying to keep things slow and simple for starters, take time to gather information before each step you know? Like a freshers course. If i ever get the money the space or the time to get like a proper sweet set up then or even a...

Just going to stick to CFL's just it's cheap and i am only doing it for the simple enjoyment, the guy at my shop said that they don't produce much heat! i don't live in a hot climate really anyway lol (UK). i was thinking of investing in a couple of fans but not sure, cause it would mean cutting...

I've looked high and low for 42watt bulbs and honestly the easiest thing is for me to buy the growlight, my grow shop is pretty local plus it used to be like a bong/hydro shop so the guy is like a proper green thumb and is loaded with tips. lol. i ve tryed diy shops, home depot shops jesus i...

Glad to hear that. :peace:

It's hard in the UK to aquire those kinnda bulbs, plus it's quite a cheap set-up for a first time grower! the 125w CFL about £40 with reflector. i am just a noob to growing but if you ask me to build anything i just spring into action lol, got a few ideas first then just plodded on.

In no way did i mean any disrespect, it's just that things are hard, and laughter is sometimes the best medicine. Sorry man i wouldn't know what your going threw (like with everything, aswell as plants) just thought you could use a laugh.......

125w CFL for veg and well 125w CFL for flowering, just going to change the bulb when the light cycle's ready to change to the correct spectrum, well when i want to start flowering them. i was just going to top them if they were going to like grow through the box, lol. but the guy at my local...

Chop, drop and bolt! Best choice by far there a million reasons for and agianst! 1) it's weed still don't kill it! 2) who can i give it to? 3) can i sell it on ebay? 4) how much does a healthy mother plant go for at auction these days? etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc...

I ve found a simple solution, here is a before (highlighted) solution and after, it works quite well, what would you reckon?? It's cheap and effective, well in fact the black stuff was free. lol but it's usually only £1.50 a 1m roll

I did a light test. there are a few areas of interest. where light peaks through take a look i highlighted them lol cause the photo is pretty shit. I only used a house lamp like but still look at the leakage, i understand there will be loads through my Fan hole lol. but how could it be...

I used a 12v plug to power the PC fan, What you have to do is first strip down the plug's wire's you cut the end of the plug that would of went into the appliance off. then exposes about 5mm of the wires using wire strippers. i have a switch in my circuit so one of the adaptor wires goes in...

Tell me what you think there's obvious things missing lol but there will be coming soon..... These were taken with a camera phone sorry if there shit..

my local grow shop sells a 125w bulb would that be be enough to grow inside a grow box my size??

The only way that could be better if there was two of them.
