So this is my first real attempt at a grow. I'm doing this grow for experience so if they die it's whatever, but lets hope not
. That's why I've decided to make a Journal anyone can post here; all your ideas and experience/advice are welcomed.
So lets get started:
Cabinet:
I built my cab from plywood just so none of the apartment maintenance will see whats going on. It's 2x2x4. It has holes for intake and exhaust I haven't gotten any fans yet(poor). I'll have an exhaust and a DIY Carbon Filter by the time they start smelling. It has insulation from the skirting of a mobile home and a black/white tarp over that for reflection.
Lighting:
I'll be using CFLs right now I only have 2 26watt my other 2 broke so I'll be getting more. Eventually I want a 250w HPS.
Grow:
I'm using a DWC with some tuperware, spray painted the bottoms. Each hold 3 plants. I only have 2 at the moment but plan on getting 2 more and a perpetual grow going eventually. I'm growing from bagseed once I get some experience in and better lightning I'll order some better seeds. I have 3 plants 1 about 4 days older then the other 2 and 1 seed that's still germinating. I just switched to 18/6 today.
So now that that's done here's a few pics
I plan on putting something around the plants to block the light to the reservoir.

Kinda hard to tell but the stem on this one has some red, don't know why.
