Before I Start 3 quick questions

Hello everyone I am and young man from the great state of Mass. and I'm interested at taking my first shot at growing, with thiat being said i've alrdy scanned the the FAQ and the rest of the forum for what i needed to know but heres the stuff i couldn't find.

As far a ventillation goes with growing, is i'm keeping my plant in a closet with a bunch of hot lightbulbs so how do i not burn my house down?and with the "Red Light" for budding are there any small sized bulbs i could fit in a desk-top lamp or are they all huge?

How Little Space could i acctually grow in with good results...for me the less room the better...i'm not looking to make bank, i just wanna have my own stash of rightous budskies to toke on

And Finally, For fertillizer how would someone go about changing the levels of Nkp in the soil?

Spanks for the Help

the only regular type of lights you can use are CFL's you might use them in your house instead of incondesents. they work alright... I tried them and wasn't happy. but I've seen thread with real nicw cfl grows. you can buy a 65W CF or 50 w HPS for 30 bucks at homedepot. the smallest space I'd attemt to grow in would be 3x2 and 3 or 4 feet high... but people go alot smaller... not sure how small you can go

Now what about the budding process, i can still use CFLs

you can. but it wont be so great... how much is the most you can spend?

ok well here it is... if you have a closet anything more then 3 ft height and 1x1 depth/with will work... if your going to use cfls they arnt hot and wont burn anything unless your plants are wrapped around them .... a closet should do fine i would just find a way to ventalate cuz thats a must... u need fresh air and u should pick up something to get rid of odors woll filtering
lights = for cfls get 65k spectrum for veg 27k spec for flower ( cool white and warm)
Soil = get a soil with petlite for good water flow or w.e.... ive herd foxfarm and sunshine mix #4 are good... then add liquid fertalizer in the water you give to ur plants.
if your short on space seach SCRoG SOG LST for diffrent types of manipulating the plant to the space you like. there is no minimum grow space if u kno what ur doin... as long as its bigger then 1 ft

most important thing for good weed = good genetics and lots of light and you should be happy with what u get... Dont overwater Dont overfertalize = common mistakes GL

Now I've just recently been to weed worlds online store, and they sell some dank looking seeds...now are these for real and how is it leagal to send to my house in the US? Also a buddys dad of mine was telling me that he got some seed for high times back in the day and they had no buds and nothing but leaves, so i don't wanna spend a bunch of loot on seeds that just sprout a pretty looking plant, Finally i live the the northeast part of the US and its gonna get damn cold in my house so i imagin that will effect my produce and if i can even grow the more tropical plants at all

thanks again for the help everyone, i just wanna no exactly what i'm doing before i make any commitments

I dont know how its legal... but it is. nirvana has good cheap seeds.
your friend wasn't good at growing or he got a male plant.

Nice, and even in my cold climate i could still grow something like Nirvanas AK-47 with result? And is feminised the same as female seeds?

yes they are.
you can grow in colder climate to an extent. how cold is the coldest?

Here is a 50w hps tckfui is refering to, however I was informed you'll need more to grow just one plant, I have several plants growing under CFL's and I was thinking of adding a couple of those 50w hps during flowering, in hopes for a better yield.

ahh in my old house, especially in a closet it might get down too about 40-50*F...any seed reccommendations?

whatever lights you use = heat... so it should keep warm.. other then that ur dads friend was prolly an idiot who had no idea what he was doing... go for the good genetic's... make sure the site isnt a rip-off ... nirvana, dr cronic. seed boutique check around forums for some good ones... i just order'd from seed boutique.. cheap prices lets see how there service and quality is.. ill let you know. and ordering seed's isnt an illegal act.... as far as i know... but possessing them is.... but then again so is growing them just make sure u dont order 1000 packs and u wont get to many problems

would those 50 do anything?and would it be cheaper to go to a hdro shop for a 400w?
maybe a 50 hps and a gang of cfl's for flower?

I already have a gang of CFL's thought I would try adding a couple 50w HPS just to see any changes and yes it would probably be cheaper in the long run to get a 400w HPS kit, especially if you're planning to grow more than just a plant, this is my first official grow and my next grow I plan on using at least a 400w HPS for flowering.

yea you couldnt grow under the 50W alone... I bought one to add to my CFLs and returned it after 2 days. because I decided I already spent 100 on CFLs and shit so I orderd a 400W HPS for 120... best decision I made in years.

Cold is like 40-50*F at coldest...and any specific seed recommendations?

theres soo many great seeds to chose from... there all great. but some grow better under certain conditions. but most seedbanks sell indoor seeds and indicas usualy flower faster and are shorter. sativas are harder to grow taller better high and longer flowering time... the strain is really up to you

Oops alright gentleman you have helped me greatly I'm now gonna see if i can put the gears in motion and get growing...thanks all for the help, i'm sure i'll be back with many more questions

well if ur looking for good seeds i would reccomend "misty" "c99" for an indor grow they stay smallish and ive never herd anything bad about either. i just ordered some misty lets see how it does but i would love to get my hands on some c99
